I have been to cheaper and better wine tour. I came with my wife on our 2 week vacation, and this is by far the worst paid tour. Here is why… Misleading pictures on website and poor experience: 1. No explanation of wine making, storage, aging, bottling, barrel and etc. 2. Guide was not enthusiastic, I.e., he would hardly talk in car/ winery (which we spent most of the time in the car). 3. No tour to the wine making and storage facilities. 4. Too hard sale in each tastings (only 2 by the way) 5. No tour to vineyard of the 2 tasting.

Knowledgeable guide, we learned so much and really enjoyed the tastings and wonderful scenery. Our guide was very passionate about the area and very interesting and friendly.

The guides were passionate and knowledgable. We learnt a lot from them particularly the area and the terroirs of the place. Our guides Thomas and Leonie are very experienced and passionate and willing to share their knowledge about wines. We enjoyed the tour lead by them and my kids loved them very much. Will definitely recommend to join their tour especially Thomas.

A must-do when you are in Beaune! Amazing experience. Romain, our tour guide, was knowledgeable, kind, and helpful! We learned so much and had a great time!!

This was the perfect day trip. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. She even helped us pick wines to have delivered back to the states from the winery.

Miriam was a wonderful host, knowledgeable and welcoming. Her passion for wine, the land and people was very apparent!

Er BS 23 reviews·28 photos 11 hours ago NEW Guides Thomas and Leonie were so delightful, considerate and at the pinnacle of service/hospitality industry. Vans were clean. Child booster seats, drinking water were prepared, and driving was safe (most would take these for granted). Interesting, educational and interactive commentary and they were systematic with information dissemination. We were so glad we organised this winery tour with Authentica, and had Thomas and Leonie as guides.

I've been on 2 tours like this and have always liked them. It's a small group where you get to know some people from around the world and visit a couple of nice wineries while learning about the area, the wineries themselves and ultimately the wine. This experience was similar but worse for a couple of reasons. Starting with the positives: The van that held the 6 of us was relatively comfortable and the ride from each location wasn't very long. The wineries themselves were excellent. They included great viewing areas of the winery, a quiet and dedicated place to try the different wines, for one of the wineries there was a guide who was very helpful and informative, and at each winery we tried 6 different wines. The last wine that we tried was a $200+ bottle, which was exquisite. The negative of the trip mainly had to do with the guide. He was extremely nice but unfortunately: while driving and describing what we were going to see and reviewing the history of the area, he did not talk loud enough at all to hear. So for 2+ hours of total driving we missed everything that he was talking about, which I consider a huge negative. We were in the 3rd row and the rattling of the van's cargo area coupled with his quiet talking made it frustrating. Secondly, while we did the wine tastings, he gave us little feedback as to his thoughts on the wine or any real insight into the wine that we were drinking, which was also a major negative. So, overall, great wineries and wine, but get in the first row of the van and make sure the guide is experienced

Excellent, small group wine tour of Burgundy. Very nice and experienced guide and very good, high-end tastings complete with excellent information.

To visit the wine growing regions of Burgundy (Chablis & Cote du Beaune) has been on our bucket list forever. I researched a number of tour operators suggested by our hotel concierge, and opted for Authentica. Our two days of touring exceeded all expectations thanks to our most knowledgeable and passionate guide, Antonin. We saw and encountered a lot, and never felt rushed or hustled. This was the ultimate Burgundy wine experience because of Antonin's tireless efforts and his ability to select a wide range of wineries to create the perfect experience. We came away from these two days of touring with a whole new outlook and appreciation for this part of France and the wine which is produced there. Thank you, Antonin.

Very good experience with a very good leader. A bit more time during lunch break would be appreciated, so we could walk around the village.

Joaquin was personal and knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about the local wine and wine culture . All 3 of us had a great time and learned a lot.The wines we tasted were amazing. The only caveat was an 18 month old baby who was unhappy at intervals and expressed him self in the way babies do.

I really enjoyed this tour with Pierre and Authentica Tours. Pierre was a very knowledgeable and passionate guide. Both of the tastings were wonderful experiences and the hosts at the caves were excellent. I tasted some of the best wines I've ever had in my life. I am truly in awe of the magic of Burgundy wines! My only suggestion is that it would be good to receive an email confirmation/reminder from Authentica Tours a day or two before the tour. Most of the hotels and tours that I have booked in France provide this, so I was a little concerned that I hadn't heard from Authentica the day before the tour and reached out by email. I received a prompt reply that my tour was confirmed, and the email also provided helpful photos and information about the meeting place, so I was reassured. However, I would prefer to receive the confirmation email rather than initiating the contact myself, and I had not previously received the meeting place information. Overall, a great experience, thank you very much Pierre and Authentica!

It was good experience to look around Burgundy winery. Thanks for good guidance and tour. Good chance to get good wines with good price.

The entire trip was amazing. Beautiful sites and excellent wine. Our tour guide Antonne was amazing. He was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Have been on wine tours around the world and this was the best, in part to the area and history and the wine but also in large part to our guide. One tip, bring cash as you will likely want to tip your guide but some wineries will offer a small cash discount.
