buyer beware
Janet_P, Nov 2024
This experience it's self was fun. Turned out to be very expensive and not worth it. I will never use viator again after being a long time customer. Viator tells me that I had to pay in British pound even though I live in United States and never would book it that way. Again I have used them many times in past and haven't had that problem. After several calls to explain they would not issue a refund and this trip already expensive ended up being 230 US dollars more then expected. I am completely done with Viator.
Enjoyable & Informative Day

Great day exploring the villages around the area. Albane was very knowledgeable and took the extra time in explaining all the regions .Enjoyed the wine tastings and Chacuterie board for Lunch.

Cold, wet day in Beaune with Marie
singaporekoala, Oct 2024
We waited in the rain at the meeting point for over 10 minutes before spotting a woman holding a sign with our names. She was our guide but she stood across the meeting point location and did not come across to check if we were there for the wine tour. It will be best if the tour reached out to the day before via text to touch base with each tourist to confirm the details so hiccups like this will be avoided in future excursions. Our guide, Marie, is wonderful. She cared about our comfort and spent time to educate us about the importance of terroir with respect to French wines. We had expected lunch to be served but only to learn the charcuterie board that was served was the lunch. First time attending a wine tour in Beaune, but expectation is different than reality. It will be good if Viator identified what lunch will be served on the tour to avoid confusion.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Bonjour, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve. We're sorry to hear about the initial confusion at the meeting point and will certainly take your suggestion to reach out to guests the day before to avoid any future misunderstandings. It's great to hear that you enjoyed your time with Maria and that she took the time to ensure your comfort and educate you on the region’s terroir. We understand that expectations around lunch can differ, and we will work closely with Viator to make sure the description is clearer for future guests. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back in the future! Cheers ! ????
Ask for Alban and you won’t be disappointed!
John_T, Oct 2024
Alban, our guide, was amazing. Her breadth of knowledge of the area made this tour totally worthwhile. I liked the first stop at Chanzy and the charcuterie lunch was very good. I did not think our second stop was very good. That’s why I rate this a 3 rather than a 5…
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Dear John, Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Albane and appreciated her extensive knowledge of the area. We're glad the stop at Chanzy and the charcuterie lunch stood out for you. We understand that preferences for different producers can be quite subjective, and we're sorry to hear the second stop didn't meet your expectations. Your input is valuable as we continue to refine our experiences. We hope to welcome you on another tour soon! Cheers ! ???? A la Française team
