Wine Tours from Antibes

The closest is Bellet, a small appellation on the hills just west of Nice. About an hour west of Cannes lie the rosé estates of the Côtes de Provence, around Les Arcs-sur-Argens, Lorgues and the Saint-Tropez peninsula. Some full-day tours go further, to Bandol near Toulon, known for its Mourvèdre-based reds.

Mostly rosé — it's by far the main colour of the Côtes de Provence. Expect crisp whites from Rolle (Vermentino) too, and structured reds in Bandol and Bellet. A typical estate visit includes a tasting of three to five wines.

Tasting workshops and shared small-group tours start at around €100 per person. Private day tours with your own driver-guide typically cost €400–650 or more, often priced per group rather than per person. Current prices are shown on each tour.

No. Most tours include transport and pickup from your hotel, the port or a central meeting point, so everyone can taste. France's drink-driving limit is 0.5 g/l — lower than in the UK or the US — so a tour with a driver is the sensible choice.

Estates welcome visitors year-round, but spring to autumn is the liveliest period, with the harvest from late August into September. Many smaller estates close on Sundays and some reduce their hours in winter, so check each tour's availability.

Tours are booked on Viator, which handles payment and confirmation. Many offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start — check the policy on each listing before you book.
