We had a wonderful tour with Colin. He is a very professional guide who is immensely knowledgeable of the wines and history of the region. The tour of Chenonceau was littered with tons of details as he enabled us to be transported centuries back in time to imagine what life was like at the Chateau. We visited three wineries, each with unique stories and delicious wines. We we were throughly impressed by the depth, quality, and value of the wines at each winery. He provided great company and laughs throughout the day, and we'd happily recommend him to anyone wanting a great tour of the area.

I earn my living from clients, showing them the Loire Valley, its vineyards, chateaux, countryside and more, but there are times when I feel I have made new friends, had a delightful time and perhaps should be paying them for the privilege!
Well, I am not complaining that after a Covid gap of nearly two years, customers are hammering on my door once again.
What a delightful way to earn your living though, touring with lovely people, showing off the region I love, and getting paid for it!
Thank you for your custom and for being such pleasant people to spend the day with; and for your kind review.

We took two private tours with Colin: one to Sancerre and one to Chinon. Both were outstanding. Colin’s knowledge of the area, it’s wines and it’s history was excellent. He was able to get us access to outstanding wineries and was a great person to spend two days with. Our group of four seasoned wine region travelers all agreed the tours were fabulous.

I am so very grateful both for your custom and for this review. I know how much TripAdvisor reviews are valued by potential clients so your comments can only add to the success of my humble business.
We visited two very different regions with very different wines and I was pleased that we were accepted by all of the vineyards you expressed an interest in - this is not always the case. I also profited from the fact that some of these were new to me. I have already taken other clients to a couple of these so thank you for suggesting them. With wine, you never stop learning!
I hope that when the wines you purchased arrive, you will remember this trip with affection.

This was a 10/10 tour. We were looking to do a lot in our one full day in the Loire Valley, and this tour certainly delivered. We got history and culture at the chateau in the morning ... local flavor with a great lunch ... wineries in the afternoon ... and great commentary from Colin along the way.

My friends and I had the best experience on this tour! Colin took us to 4 exceptional wineries on our quest to find the best Sauvignon Blanc. We experienced everything from small family wineries to one larger corporate winery with Sancerre. He even brought us to an adorable town for lunch.
Can’t recommend Colin and Loire Valley Wine Tours enough! He works to customize your private tour to meet your requests and what you want to try! He also facilites getting wine home to the States! And he is super knowledgeable about wines and the region and is a delight to be with for the day!

It's hard not to get excited about Sancerre and its wines and the delight for me is to have the opportunity to show them off to an appreciative audience.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your day with me and thank you for letting the world in on our little secret.

A truly enjoyable day. Colin is a knowledgable and informative guide not just in terms of the wine but the local history as well. He included fascinating insight into the techniques of wine making both traditional and modern and is obviously well trusted by the winery owners.

Sadly I was not informed by TripAdvisor that you had left this kind note; I would certainly have responded earlier had I known.
Thank you so much for touring with me. I am delighted you enjoyed your day in the Loire Valley.

Colin is a charming, engaging Englishman, who was a pleasure to talk to as he drove my wife and me around the French countryside and as we dined at a fabulous restaurant in Vouvray for lunch. It is obvious that Colin knows and loves the wines of the Loire.
Colin picked us up at our B&B, a chateau near Bléré. We visited four wineries during our one day tour. Three of the four wineries are regular stops for Colin in Vouvray and the Touraine – the owners and their staffs were friendly and informative and the wines were excellent and reasonably priced.
Weeks before we left for France, I had sent a list of a handful of exceptional wineries to Colin and asked that he try to get us into one or two if possible and let him know what kind of experience we were looking for. Several didn’t work for one reason or another or Colin was concerned that the experience might not be what we were looking for, but as Colin told us, he begged, pleaded, perhaps even groveled to get us into Clos Naudin, which I had considered to be the most desirable on my list and least likely to be able to spare the time for two tourists and their guide. While I was surprised that he was able to get us in, I was thrilled when Colin told me that we were going to meet Philippe Foreau, the proprietor and grandson of the founder Clos Naudin, which has been handed down from father to son since the late 1920s. (We even rushed a bit at lunch to ensure we would be on time.) M. Foreau, gracious and accommodating, personally conducted the tour of his cellars and poured his exceptional wines for us (recommending the perfect food pairing for each along the way). M. Foreau is passionate about, and justifiably proud of, his wines and Colin was the perfect guide for the Clos Naudin tour, enthusiastic and engaged – he was thoroughly enjoying himself, as were we. One of the great testaments to Colin was that, although M. Foreau speaks no English and we are limited to phrase book French, Colin’s translations made our conversations flow effortlessly, whether we were discussing fermentation processes or M. Foreau’s grandfather carving the caves out of the hill below the vineyards beginning almost 90 years ago. Our tour was one of the highlights of our entire trip to France and we really couldn’t have done it without Colin.
As others have mentioned, Colin has gone to some lengths to set up an arrangement with a shipper who can get your wines back home. My recommendation is to reserve that service for higher end wines that may be hard to come by when you are home and to squeeze less expensive bottles into your bags. While we bought a substantial amount at Clos Naudin, I now wish we had bought more – particularly now that I’ve realized that it is impossible to find the lovely 2007 Clos Naudin Reserve Brut back home and I’m now in a conundrum about when I should open the ones I have.
One side note: While we did not take advantage of Colin’s tours of Loire chateaux, given that Colin is a horticulturist by training and a professional garden designer and teacher of garden design, I suspect he would be fantastic at chateaux with extensive gardens – I would think, especially, Chateau Villandry.
In short, we couldn’t be happier that we engaged Colin and we enthusiastically recommend him to you.

Dear Rex,
Thank you for the review of your trip – it had me blushing from top to toe!
I remember the tour well of course, partly because I was afraid I would not be able to provide what you wanted; that list of winemakers, sent to us via your travel agent, was a veritable Who’s Who of the Loire Valley wine industry and I imagined many would not speak to mere mortals like me.
In the end it all went very well and the Clos Naudin visit was certainly a highlight of my year. Thank you for causing it to happen. I am sure that I can help you buy and ship some more bottles and I would be delighted to have an excuse to go back.
The bottle of Clos Naudin Reserve Brut 2007 that you kindly gave me was opened when our son came to visit from England: it was a really special family moment. I trust you will do much the same over the fast approaching holiday season and that you will warmly remember your time in the Loire Valley.

My wife and I were looking for a great wine tour in the Tours region of the Loire Valley and we certainly were not dispointed. But Colin and Chantel offer so much more! We toured with Colin and Chantel led a different tour. Our paths crossed, but each tour was tailored to the desires of their guests so we did not see what Chantel's group saw.
Our day with Colin was filled with his wealth of information and insights. He is certainly a wine expert on the Loire, but we were amazed by his knowledge of French history. We visited Chenonceau, and Colin gave us a better tour of the chateau than we could have expected. No headsets for us! Room by room, and floor by floor, Colin was spot on with just the right amount of explanation and detail.
Did I mention that Colin is an expat from England? Chantel is a French girl. Colin has a wonderful way of bonding with strangers, but his understated and charming manner are an instant comfort to spend the day with.
There is so much to see, and wine to taste in the LoireValley we may have to return again soon. We definitely will tour with either Colin or Chantel if we do! It was an exceptional day!

Many thanks for your review: you are too kind.
Obviously I had to keep you away from Marie-Chantal and her tour as much as possible. If you saw how much fun they were having you were bound to abandon me and go over to her group!
I enjoyed the company of you and Jo and of course we would be delighted to welcome you back any time. There is so much more to see.
Thanks again.
Colin

WARNING: Don't go to the Loire Valley to drink wine and see a Chateau or two unless you book a tour with Colin! I have never left a comment on TripAdvisor before (although I do travel a lot). However, felt the need to do so with this excursion. If you are looking for great service before, during, and after a Day Tour, want great company and conversation, Colin is hands-down the perfect English gentleman/tour guide.
My partner and I spent the week leading to Valentines Day in Paris, which leaves plenty of time to explore the Loire Valley for a day trip. However, since neither of us speak French nor wanted to drive or go at it alone, I did my research and found Colin and his company (Yes, all the reviews here are accurate, he truly goes out of his way to meet a client's requests). It's only a 1hr train ride on the TGV, and then we spent the next 8 hours drinking (3-4 vineyards), laughing, eating (perfect rustic lunch with wine) and even squeezed a visit at Chateau Chenonceau. Before our arrival, he sent us specific questions about what we wanted to drink and see, and then even sent us train schedules.
I think the best part of the trip was seeing how important the Loire Valley was to Colin. His love of french wine, horticulture, and the people of the Loire is something you can't find in many corporate tour companies. However, with Colin, you felt like you were visiting a friend and he was taking you to see all his favorite colleagues and sights. My only worry about writing this review is that he will get too popular :-)
If you are reading this, thanks for the amazing time Colin! L&N

When life gets challenging, I read reviews like yours and remember how lucky I am. Thanks for your kind words.
What I recall is spending the day with two really pleasant people, showing off the Loire countryside, its people and its wine; eating, drinking (in moderation, obviously) and laughing together.
......and the great thing is, this is how I earn my living. Don't tell anyone, or they'll all be doing it !

My husband and I had a great two day tour with Colin. He picked us up from the train station and delivered us to our hotel each day. He gave us recommendations on how to travel there and where to stay. He took us to a variety of wineries and shared a wealth of information about wine making, tasting, history... Really, anything we asked, he had an answer for. We visited chateau chenonceau which was magnificent and a nice break from all the wine tasting. Colin had a wealth of information about France, in general, but especially the Loire Valley. I think we underestimated the value of having a native English speaker who is fluent in French take us around. Colin easily navigated any conversation we had with the locals and was obviously a regular at all of the places we visited. He even figured out a way to ship wine home to us - although shipping wine is, not surprisingly, expensive. But, the cost of French wine was actually very reasonable so it sort of offset the cost if shipping, we loved the experience and look forward to sharing our wine and the stories behind acquiring the bottles.

We are seeing more and more clients stay for two days, a week, or even longer, and this enables us to show you even more of the delights of the region. It was a pleasure to offer this opportunity to you both.
Translation is a major part of my work these days and it is by talking to the locals that you get the best from the experience. They are rightly proud of their region and keen to share with visitors.
Thank you for taking the time to post your thoughts on TripAdvisor; so many clients find us through this site and value the opinions of genuine users of our services.
