    Alex took us wine tasting in Aix en Provence. He was a wealth of knowledge about wine making, history, the area, etc. Was a pleasure to hang out with for the morning. Even gave us a good recommendation for lunch afterwards.

    My husband and I recently had a vineyard tour in Provence with this company. We were looking for something short, casual, and informative, so our 3 hour tour with Alex was perfection. We visited 2 wine estates, learned about...

  • Private Mediterranean Shore Excursions in France

    Discover southern France on a private shore excursion planned around your cruise port, interests, and time ashore. Explore options from Port-Vendres, Sète, Marseille, Sanary-sur-Mer, and Toulon, with experiences ranging from historic cities and hilltop villages to vineyards and Mediterranean scenery. Choose your departure port first, then select an itinerary with realistic travel times and clearly confirmed pickup and return arrangements.

  • Port-Vendres Shore Excursions: Collioure & the Catalan Coast

    From Port-Vendres, discover Collioure and the character of the French Catalan coast. Explore a seaside setting known for its colorful harbor, historic streets, and artistic heritage, with an itinerary that balances guided discovery and time to enjoy the surroundings. Browse our Port-Vendres shore excursions to confirm the available routes, visiting arrangements, and departure details for your cruise call.

  • Sète Shore Excursions: Carcassonne & Regional Wine Discoveries

    From Sète, choose between medieval heritage and a wine-focused excursion. Our private Carcassonne shore excursion introduces the fortified citadel and its historic setting. For wine enthusiasts, discuss Languedoc vineyard options or review our Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine excursion from Sète. These are separate itineraries, not visits to combine in one day. Confirm driving times, winery appointments, and the time available at each destination before booking.

  • Marseille Shore Excursions: Aix-en-Provence, Luberon Villages & Wine

    From Marseille, discuss a city-focused visit, an excursion to Aix-en-Provence, or a countryside itinerary through the Luberon. Depending on your selected tour, village discoveries may include Gordes or Roussillon, with the route shaped by your available time. Explore our Luberon villages shore excursion or choose a Provence wine tour from Marseille cruise port. Confirm the precise stops and inclusions rather than assuming every highlight is covered in a single excursion.

  • Sanary-sur-Mer Shore Excursions: Coastal Scenery & Provence Experiences

    For a cruise call at Sanary-sur-Mer, request a private itinerary focused on your interests in coastal landscapes, local heritage, or Provençal wine. Discuss whether an experience featuring Cassis, scenic viewpoints, or vineyard visits is suitable for your time ashore. Our Cassis, Calanques, and Provence wine excursion provides an option to review, with the departure arrangements to be confirmed for your specific call. Do not assume that a tour offered from a neighboring port automatically includes pickup in Sanary-sur-Mer.

  • Toulon Shore Excursions: Provence Towns, Vineyards & Mediterranean Views

    From Toulon, discuss an itinerary combining your preferred themes, such as Provençal towns, regional wines, or coastal scenery. Options involving Aix-en-Provence, Cassis, or vineyard visits should be assessed against your ship’s schedule and the selected route. Confirm your exact docking location before booking, along with travel times, guided stops, and any tasting or admission arrangements. Choose a focused day rather than trying to combine several distant destinations.

  • Confirm Activities & Admissions for Your Mediterranean Port Day

    Check whether your selected excursion includes museum or monument admissions, winery tastings, boat tickets, meals, and free time. A visit to Cassis or a Calanques viewpoint does not automatically include a boat cruise, and any sailing activity must be confirmed for the selected itinerary and operating conditions. Share mobility requirements and children’s ages in advance so walking routes, transport needs, and activity suitability can be reviewed.

  • Plan Your Private Mediterranean Shore Excursion

    Provide your ship name, travel date, port, scheduled arrival, and all-aboard time when requesting a tour. Confirm the meeting location, planned return time, appropriate return buffer, and booking conditions before payment. Read our guide to shore excursions in France for port-day planning advice, or explore our Provence travel guide for regional inspiration. Contact Ophorus to discuss a private excursion suited to your Mediterranean cruise itinerary.
