Escape Paris for Sancerre vineyards, winery visits, more than eight wine tastings, and a traditional French lunch with local specialties.
About this tour
Trade Parisian streets for vineyard views on a full-day escape to Sancerre, where an expert guide brings the region’s wines and traditions to life. Your day begins with hotel pickup and a comfortable minivan ride, with a freshly baked croissant along the way. At the first winery, explore the cellar, learn about winemaking, and taste wines shaped by Sancerre’s three celebrated terroirs: Les Calcaires, Les Terres Blanches, and Les Silex.
Continue through the vineyards to a scenic viewpoint, where you can enjoy a glass and hear about vine growing and vineyard work. A traditional French lunch at a family-run winery or local restaurant pairs regional dishes and wines, including the area’s distinctive Crottin de Chavignol goat cheese. In the afternoon, visit a second winery for more tastings, with over eight exceptional cuvées sampled across the day and possible wines from nearby appellations such as Pouilly-Fumé.
With transportation, winery visits, tastings, and lunch arranged, this Paris Sancerre Wine Day Tour makes it easy to experience the countryside without planning each stop yourself. Set out from Paris and savor a day among the vineyards before returning to the city.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.78 from 18 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.0.
