3 City & Vineyard Tours Worth Flying For

1.Vineyard Tour with Wine Tasting within Nice city borders

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 132 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $39Our pick

Meet Julia at Chateau de Bellet, a hilltop winery within Nice, for a 90-minute English tour through the vines, production rooms, and a former chapel tasting room. Learn about Bellet grapes and winemaking, then sample three local wines. Bring a snack and arrange your own transport, as taxis or buses are more reliable than Uber here.

“Julia the host/tour guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. The Chateau itself is set in beautiful surroundings, and is very picturesque. There are toilets at the chateau, however I recommend taking something to eat with you for after the tour, perhaps as you wait for your taxi/bus, as there is a lovely outdoor seating area. Chateau is approx 20-25mins from centre of Nice, and difficult to get an Uber back as it's quite far out, however Julia was very helpful in booking a taxi or explaining about the bus times. A great experience!”

“Very good overview City tour of Auckland in the morning. Great opportunity to tour the City Center, the Harbor area and several of the adjacent neighborhoods. The afternoon wine tour with three stops was outstanding. The staff at each was quite knowledgeable about their wines and food pairings. The highlight of the afternoon was a stop at the cliffs on the west shore to see the gannet and tern colonies starting their annual egg hatchings. Great introduction to Auckland for newcomers to NZ”
