Wineries are a great way to plan a perfect vacation. Provence wine tours are the talk of the town for various reasons. People love the idea of tasting wines and spending their day at a nice winery for the rich and beautiful experience they get through this tour. However, there are certain things you must know before you plan your trip to such wineries.
These will come handy for you before you embark your journey at some of the finest wineries in Provence.
Things to consider before planning a wine tour:
- Research:
Call it a research or your homework, but to know about a location that you are visiting is a must! There are various vineyards and wineries that have come into existence, but you cannot afford to compromise on the best ones! Thus, a little research always helps in finding proper locations.
- Preference:
Once you have researched about the wineries of Provence, list down your preference that you would wish to visit. Choose the best wineries to have the best experience. Check the features and facilities they have, how close is the winery from the airport, hotel, any convenient mode of transport to reach etc.
- Transport:
Before you finalize any winery in Provence, check the mode of transport to reach. Some wineries are in the outskirts and you may not have proper mode of transport. Some people prefer to walk on foot but, not all. So, you may have to choose a preferred mode of transport based on your comfort. If you prefer to drive yourself all the way to the winery, check on the parking options they have and whether it is free parking or paid.
- Bookings:
Do make a call to the selected wineries and check if you have a book a prior appointment for the same. Most wineries would prefer a guest list in advance so that they know how many to cater to. Ensure that you have your reservations made in advance. We suggest you try both, reservations based and non-reservation based wineries to have different experiences about Provence wine tours.
