Essential Breaks

Our three and four day Essential breaks have been designed to provide our guests with a great introduction to the wines of the region at a selection of hand-picked estates and we also tend to include an introductory tasting session on the first evening as well as a lunch or dinner for a fuller experience in the region. These tours are available across a very wide range of dates, with trips offered throughout the year in many regions and with departures both during the week and at weekends.

For our Essential Breaks, we work with carefully selected local partners for some or all of the tour elements. This will usually mean that the parts of the tour that are transported may well have a central departure point. Some of our Essential Breaks are fully transported throughout the tour day and for others, the non-transported elements of the tour may require you to walk a short distance to tasting venues or restaurants.

The various elements of these tours do not necessarily need to take place over one day. You can spread your tour out over a few days to give yourself a more relaxed holiday. For guests wishing to stay longer in their chosen region, we are happy to arrange additional nights and to customise the itinerary by adding further visits and tours as required.
