Eric was our driver/guide. He was very knowledgeable about wine and personable. It was lovely to be driven around Provence which made it easy to enjoy the scenery, etc. Lunch in Cassis was a bonus… an opportunity to see a bit more of the region At the end of the tasting he drove us up to the highest point in Cassis for a photo op. I would highly recommend this tour.

My husband and I enjoyed this day in Bandol and Cassis. Our tour guide was Eric and he was very knowledgeable and eager for everyone to have a positive experience. He had the perfect combination of wine making details and friendly delivery of facts. It was a day well spent that we will remember from our Marseille trip.

Our guide was very knowledgeable. We went to two vineyards in Bandol then beautiful beach town of Cassis for lunch and one final winery. They all had generous tastings. Our guide also took us to the top of the Calanque for an incredible view before retiring to marseille.

We booked a full day wine tour for our cruise stop in Bandol, FR. Eric was our tour guide. We visited Domaines Bunan and Domaine De L'Olivette, then had time to have lunch and shop in the beautiful village of Cassis. Eric was fantastic. He is very knowledgeable about the winemaking process and obviously passionate about the wines in the Provence/Bandol region. We were so thankful we did not book wine tours through the cruise line as we observed passengers boarding large busses headed to commercial operations. Both of the wineries we visited were small family owned estates that are not accessible by bus due to the beautiful narrow roads. Eric worked very hard to tailor the day around our preferences. He speaks fluent English and made us feel like his friends. After the wine tours and visit to beautiful Cassis, he made a stop at the overlook of Parc national des Calanques for the most amazing views. From our initial contact with the reservation team for Provence Wine Tours, to our day with Eric, everything was perfect.

We had the best day with Fab touring two wineries in Bandol and Cassis. We were a group of 8 with of 4 of them being children. Fab was wonderful and very accommodating. She knew everything about the wine making process and even showed us some gorgeous sights in Provence. We highly recommend Fab and Provence wine tours.
