Your day begins with pick-up directly from your ship by an English-speaking driver/guide, who will provide an overview of the itinerary. Board a premium A/C vehicle and journey to Cassis, a picturesque village that has been producing wine since ancient times.

Cassis, established as a Protected Appellation (AOP) in 1936, is known for its high-quality wines, with its vineyards benefiting from 3,000 hours of sunshine annually and cooling maritime winds. The region is renowned for its white wines, particularly made from the Marsanne grape variety, and also produces red and rosé wines.

Visit a carefully selected local winery where you will enjoy a guided wine tasting, sampling a range of wines including those from Bandol and Cassis. Your guide will share the history of the property and explain the winemaking process.

After the winery visit, head to Cassis village for some free time to explore, enjoy a coffee, or shop for local souvenirs. Your guide will point out the main attractions of the village before returning to Marseille.
