Highlights
Montpellier is France’s fastest growing conurbation, and the largest town on a coastline with Greek, Roman, Iberian, Moorish, Phocéan and Phonecian history. There is an astonishing variety of sights to see: giant neo-classical boulevards, twisting medieval ruelles, a towering Gothic cathedral, the world’s oldest medical university, a Romanesque aquaduct, the garrigue in the distance, cutting-edge modern architecture, the city’s fabled fountains, bustling farmers’ markets, the beautiful Lez river winding its way to the sea and much more. The wines are just as varied, specialising in zingy coastal whites, spicy reds, juicy fortified wines and rosés of every hue. I am a WSET level 3 wine professional and I will guide you on a unique walking apéritif tour of the main sights and hidden gems in this wonderful city. You’ll taste a selection of different bottles, showcasing the innovation of the Languedoc and Camargue wineries, and each one brimming with fun stories and anecdotes.
