Rhône wine tour with great small vintners
Exceptional guide Learned a lot about wines and wine production Visited small vineyards which provided very personal experiences

Perfect Rhône wine day
What a great day! Olivier was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We would recommend this trip to anyone that truly wants to experience Northern Rhône wines and wineries. It's worth every penny!
via Viator
Unlock a piece French wine country you’d never get to see on your own
A once in lifetime experience! Oliver is exceptional. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and enjoyable. We did 3 separate tastings at 3 separate wineries. French was exclusively spoken at all 3 wineries, but Oliver was able to seamlessly bridge the gap for our group that only spoke English. His expertise in the terrain, climate, grapes, AOCs, and history was stunning. Lunch was also phenomenal. You get what you pay for, and this experience is well worth it.
Response from the operator: Hi Stephen. Wonderful review thank you so much! It was a great pleasure to spend the day with you my friends. Olivier

A perfect day exploring Northern Rhone wine
Olivier is an incredible guide to this beautiful region. He shared his extensive knowledge so generously and we learned so much from him. He took us to 3 different wineries, each with their own unique characteristics, and we tasted a wide range of wines reflecting each specific terroir. We had a delicious lunch overlooking the Rhone and drove to an incredible viewpoint of the river and the Hill of Hermitage. Along the way we shared great stories and quite a few good laughs. An absolutely outstanding day. Thank you, Olivier.

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lyon.
How much does Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon cost?
+
Prices start at $1,142 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lyon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lyon is not rushed.
Is Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 46 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lyon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon?
+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lyon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lyon and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lyon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lyon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lyon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lyon Highlights & Secrets Walking Guided Tour (small group) including Funicular, Highlights and Hidden Gems of Lyon Guided Walking Tour (English), Lyon Old Town Food Tour with 5 Authentic Dishes & Fine Wine. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lyon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lyon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
