The tour was great. It's a mix of going to a farmer's market and a winery. The farmer's market has a lot of fresh produce. There, you'll have the tasting of 1 white wine followed by a charcuterie board. And, it's big, so i'd advise to have a light breakfast in the morning. Then, we went to a Beujolais winery on a beautiful hill called Madonna. There, we had 5 tastings. The wines were great and prices as well. The van arrived on time and came back on time to Lyon. I'd just recommend to have on the tour a bottle of water included per person. It was very hot and we couldn't purchase more water bottles on the farmers market.
