  • 5Excellent tour with Anya!

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Half-Day Wine Tour of Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire with Provence Wine Tours, and especially with our wonderful guide, Anya! Anya took us to two beautiful wineries in the Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire wine region, including one of the largest wine producers in the area. The experience was incredibly informative, and we had the opportunity to taste approximately 12 different wines while learning so much about the winemaking process. Anya shared fascinating details about the different methods of fermentation and wine production, including the use of concrete, stainless steel, and oak barrels. Her knowledge of the wines and the region was truly impressive, but what made the experience especially memorable was how warm, sweet, and delightful she was. Anya has such a wonderful way of sharing her knowledge — she was informative without ever making it feel overwhelming, and her passion for wine and Provence really came through. We learned so much and had such a lovely time exploring the Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire region with her. Anya was truly the sweetest and most knowledgeable guide we could have asked for. She made our wine tour a very special part of our time in Provence, and we would absolutely recommend this tour — and especially Anya — to anyone wanting to discover the wines of Sainte-Victoire! 🍷❤️

  • 5Half Day Wine Tour from Aix

    Anya was a great guide—very knowledgeable about the wines and wineries, and she also shared some helpful general tips for our time in Aix. We visited two wineries about 30 minutes from Aix. The first, Mas de Cadenet, was a family-owned and operated working winery. During our visit, the owner and crew were transferring “cooked” grape must from the cooker into tanks for fermentation. It was fascinating to see the process underway. Their base rosé was our favorite of the ten wines we tasted during the tour. The second winery, Domaine Terre de Mistral, was a larger-volume operation that also produced limited quantities of olive oil. Its wines were very different from those at the first winery, so the second tasting didn’t feel repetitive. The wines were remarkably aromatic—even with my allergies, I could smell them from the other side of the table. Overall, it was an enjoyable and informative half-day tour that offered two distinctly different winery experiences.

  • 5Great tour!

    My friend and I attended this tour and had a great time! Stephan, our tour guide, was really fun, upbeat, and knowledgeable. He helped us dive more into culture and made wine tasting approachable. You can't beat the views and village we stopped in for lunch. It was really a great day and we'd recommend.

About Aix-en-Provence

Aix-en-Provence is an elegant university town in Provence, with plane-shaded boulevards, fountains, markets and the hills Cézanne painted.

Aix-en-Provence was founded by the Romans in 122 BC beside hot springs and later became the capital of Provence. The Cours Mirabeau, a broad avenue shaded by plane trees, divides the old town from the newer quarter, with cafés on one side and old mansions on the other, and fountains run in the small squares behind. Thermal springs still feed its baths.
