Our guide, Emmanuel, was terrific. He knows a tremendous a mount about wine, and when we asked a lot of questions he answered them all in a way that made sense to us. The itinerary was thoughtfully produced. We enjoyed having lunch as a group. And the wine we tasted was excellent. Five stars for this tour!

Emmanuel knows Burgundy very well, and has the patience to explain what you need to know about the complexity of this region. You can be relaxed and enjoy wine and the explanation about Burgundy. without the feeling to rush through the tour. Highly recommended.

Emanuel was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. France Intense was also very helpful in rescheduling our trip from one day to another. Despite the horrible weather we had a great wine tasting trip, pleasant company and a tasty lunch. Honestly the best way to spend a day in Burgundy!
