Really fun and interesting tour

Lysandro Tidmore 05/04/2024

Loved the whole trip. No issues at all during the whole process. Maude made it a special, fun, and informative trip. Really liked the personalized walk through the village of Saint-Emilion. I would recommend this tour to my friends. And of course, the wine was amazing. My opinion of Bordeaux wine will never be the same.

5 étoiles!

Rosanna Trestman 05/04/2024

Incroyable. We chose this tour because it seemed "intelligent " and it was. We not only profitted from Maude's knowledge (and bubbly personality) but the agents at the wineries were also generous with their time in educating us and with the tastings. And there was no hard sell. The tour was advertised as 5.5 hours but was over 6. Maude wanted to make sure that we didn't miss anything. 5 stars for WineTrails and for Maude.
