Posted on Google DottieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just completed our second tour with France Intense! We toured small producers in the Champagne Region in September 2024 and couldn't wait to return! Pierre provided great service and guidance during both tours. His personality suits this service very well! Claire also was very supportive in coordinating the details for the day! I would definitely suggest contacting France Intense!Posted on Google Greg LindoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a great experience today. Ingrid is the Best Guide Ever. She displayed a vast knowledge of the Chateau's we visited. Ingrid provided great entertainment and kept our group of nine engaged.Posted on Google Marian LindoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ingrid was the best guide ever. Witty and knowledgeable. I wish we could have her on our trip throughout France. We had such an awesome time. I recommend hiring this company for tours.Posted on Google Christine WilliamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fabulous tour on a rainy day with Emmanuel. He was kind and very knowledgeable. If you are a burgundy novice or reasonably knowledgeable there is lots to learn and taste. I highly recommend merciPosted on Google ManuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Superb day with Cillian, a very knowledgeable guide, very funny and even challenging us with some quizzes after each visit. He was also great with our 7 years old who enjoyed the trip more than we would have hoped for!

He took us to two small family run champagne houses where we sampled excellent wine. His description of the wines, the people and place that make it was engaging and highly informative. I recommend this tour without reservation.Posted on Google Donald TrainorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful daylong tour of the champagne region with Pierre of France Intense. He took our interests into consideration and took us all around the region. It was a fabulous day and we got to taste some amazing champagnes. While it was not inexpensive, it was well worth it for us champagne lovers. Would do it all over again with Pierre and France Intense.Posted on Google Kathryn AlpTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We toured Reims and its surrounds on a champagne tour with Pascale. We felt that the day was full to the brim of what we wanted: history, good food and outstanding champagne. Throughly recommended.Posted on Google JesterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. While visiting Beaune, my wife and I—together with two other couples—joined a wine tour with France Intense, guided by the delightful Emmanuel and Marianne. We explored three different venues for local wine tastings, each offering 5 to 6 distinct selections to delight the palate. Both guides were exceptionally knowledgeable, weaving together the history, science, and stories behind the wines and their producers with humour and warmth. It made for an engaging, light-hearted experience that was as educational as it was enjoyable. We’ve always wanted to deepen our understanding of wine, and we truly couldn’t have asked for better guides. Emmanuel and Marianne answered all our questions thoughtfully and even recommended excellent dining spots for after the tour. We ended up purchasing three bottles—not because they were Grand Crus, but simply because we genuinely loved what we tasted. All in all, I would highly recommend this wine tasting experience with Emmanuel and Marianne. It was a highlight of our trip.Posted on Google Cole SoutterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn't recommend them more. Fantastic experience and they even catered for our 3 month old with a car seat and we're so brilliant with him. Special thanks to our guide Marie who was an absolute star, she really made the trip special and is a wonderful guide.
