Laurent led a wonderful wine tour in the Bandol region. We saw a few different estates while driving through the countryside. He gave us some great recommendations for dinner too.

Scheduled day before trip through GetYourGuide for a 9am 4-hour tour; Laurent was quick to tell me he was available at 1pm, which was a concern due to an early cruise departure of 5:30pm. Laurent arrived 30 minutes late and was able to adjust: only 1 winery (which was amazing — very organic, “real-life” tour with the 6th generation sole owner of a family winery — fresh apricots off the tree as a bonus!), and a drive through the national park as a make-up for not having time to do the planned 2nd winery. Plan ahead, nail down details, and Laurent is a great guide!

My family of four (two parents and two female adult children) booked the Half-Day Bandol Wine Appellation Tour from Marseille for our short visit through France. Our tour guides, Gilles and Michel, were absolutely phenomenal! This tour included tasting 3-6 wines at two different wineries and exploring the neighboring areas of Le Castellet and Cassis, but they took it above and beyond! They were extremely knowledgeable of the wineries and history of the villages. The wineries were family owned, boasted fantastic white, rosé, and red wines and were breathtaking to look at. They took us down to the port town of Cassis to eat lunch from a delicious bakery where we enjoyed our food sitting near the beach. We then got to finish off the tour by visiting the Notre-Dame de la Garde, which is a must see as a Marseille tourist. Gilles and Michel were the most hospitable tour guides I have I ever had the pleasure of meeting. They gave us dinner recommendations as well as recommendations for the rest of our trip through Europe. I would 100% recommend this tour and our tour guides for anyone looking for a half day wine tour of great French wineries and must hit spots in Marseille.

Do not book! We were on a cruise. I Had a medical emergency, needed to leave my cruise and canceled our tour 30 hrs prior to arriving to marseille. No where in Laurent’s website does he list refund policy. He showed no compassion and refused to issue even a partial refund. And he is somewhat confused. Called me a month prior to my trip asking where we should meet the next day. Then questioned where and when I paid—and I needed to show him my receipt. I had to do his bookkeeping and he refuses to answer my emails now. Shady dude
