Your guide
Alexia Papin, a guide who loves sharing
A successful tour is not a lecture: it is a conversation, questions, stories and the pleasure of seeing differently.
A career between heritage and wine
Alexia qualified as a licensed guide in 2010 in Angers and Saumur, then developed her experience across several major French tourism regions before settling in Burgundy.
Her career took her from the Loire Valley to Bordeaux, Champagne and Normandy. In 2018 she created her independent business to offer more personal visits.
Her WSET training enriches her vineyard approach, explaining wine without unnecessary jargon and starting from landscape and human work.
- A clear, lively approach
- Tours in French and English
- Content adapted from beginner to enthusiast
- Real attention to the group’s pace
