Designed specifically for Avignon river cruise guests, this private shore excursion takes you just beyond the city to discover one of the Rhône Valley’s most renowned wine regions: Châteauneuf-du-Pape. With short driving distances and a carefully timed program, this experience offers an efficient and rewarding introduction to Provençal wine culture.

The excursion includes visits to two selected wineries, where you will enjoy tastings and gain insight into both traditional and modern Rhône Valley winemaking. A brief stop in the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape allows time to admire vineyard panoramas and understand the site’s papal heritage.

Important information concerning wine tours in France: We carefully select the wineries visited during our wine tours, but the number of wines you’ll taste is set by each estate and varies by region, price and quality.
Enjoying wine is a wonderful part of discovering France’s culture and heritage. We encourage guests to savor each tasting responsibly and at their own pace. Please remember that wine contains alcohol, and moderation helps you fully appreciate the flavors, keep a clear head throughout the tour, and make the most of your experience.
What is moderation?
Please also note: In France, snacks are usually not provided during wine tastings to preserve the purity of the wine's flavor. We recommend having a good breakfast or lunch beforehand.
In regards to the protection of the environment, we will no longer provide plastic bottles of water during our tours. You are kindly advised to bring your own. Water and refills are available at the wineries, museums and attractions visited.
