I hope everyone realizes that making Francois and David and Avignon Wine Tours the Number One Attraction in Avignon has created a monster. Surely there must be something better than driving around Provence with new friends and having a suave, debonair Frenchman (you can trust him, he is French) introduce you to one of the great areas of the world...

David picked us and another couple up and drove us all over the Luberon area. His interaction with all participants was great, treating us like individual new friends. The six secrets of wine tasting we learned were great, but only to be used in wineries, not restaurants. He asked our individual opinions about every wine we tasted, and we all... More

We booked this tour at the last minute through the Office de Tourisme in Avignon. The tour was excellent. Benoit Vincent showed up early at our hotel with a very clean auto and proceed at a safe speed to guide us through Chateauneuf de Pape. He lives in Avignon, loves the wines, and is extremely knowledgable. He advised on on... More

My husband and I had the pleasure of spending a day with François from Avignon Wine Tours a couple of weeks ago. François is a very knowledgeable guide with a fantastic sense of humour, a perfect combination to make a wine tour unforgettable. He promises and he delivers! Whether you feel you know a lot or a little about wine,... More

We are 3 ladies, who took a wine tour with Francois. Right from the start we knew it would be a fun and informative day. Fun, because Francois is full of humor and his enthusiasm for Provence is quite evident. Interesting, because it was more than a wine tour. Along the way, he fed us bits of information about the...

We spent 2 days with Francois. We originally booked a tour using his set friday tour. We were picked up at our hotel and were exposed to a wonderful itinerary that included an introduction about French Wine and the proper way to enjoy it. He was very educational and engaging...he tailored his approach to ensure that each person thoroughly enjoyed... More

David is knowledgeable, engaging, enthusiastic and fun. We had a great day visiting four wineries and a lovely lunch. Our only disappointment was that we didn't have room in our luggage to bring any wine home! Thank you David for such a memorable experience!

Our day with David from Avignon Wine Tours was excellent! We met at a central location in Avignon at 9am and spent a full day in the Chateauneuf-du-Pape region. We visited 4 vineyards with wine tasting (and a chance to buy) at each. David talked us through all of the steps for wine tasting for each bottle! This tour is... More

My wife and I went on a 1 day tour with David back in February 2013. The day was a perfect combination of fantastic wines, beautiful scenery and informative commentary from David. As avid drinkers and frequent visitors to Australian wine regions, this tour was a perfect introduction to the wines of the Chateauneuf-du-Pape and the Rhone generally. A relaxed... More

Me and my wife spent a wonderful day with Francois! That morning was raining, but When we arrived the waiting place, Francois was cleaning the window of the tour car, so as to let us have a comfort and clear sight. We then started our tour, he taught us the five steps skill to taste the wine, visit wine museum,... More
