Great tour

I did this tour with my partner for our honeymoon. There was 6 of us. Our guide Yan is very knowledgeable and taught us all about the history and process of wine making. The wineries themselves were stunning. It may be a bit pricier than others but you go to both banks in Bordeaux and get lunch. Highly recommended.

One day trip, see below

It was a nice, planned trip, we have 8 people in this tour, the tour guide is knowledgeable However, the tour guide was constantly chatting in Frech with a guy from Quebec in the car, none of other 7 people could understand at all. Except at the beginning of 10 min, she introduced some wine information, the rest of time in the car, she only spoke in French with the guy from Quebec, virtually nonstop talking! It would be a much better trip if the tour guide can pay a bit more attention and respectful to 7 other people in the tour.

Excellent Tour

We had a wonderful tour with Olala Bordeaux that met all of our expectations. The only, very minor, issue is that we specifically wanted a tour that visited Saint-Emilion in the morning and Margaux in the afternoon, and I specified that when booking. When we arrived for our tour we were informed that they had changed the routine and we did it the other way around, supposedly to "allow us to see Saint-Emilion in the sunshine". Well the entire day was sunny, so it wouldn't have mattered anyway, and the town was so overcrowded late in the day that we did not actually get the guided tour that we had booked as the driver couldn't find a parking spot. We were left to explore on our own. Other than that one disappointment though, the entire day was fantastic and gave us everything else that we wanted. The driver guide was good at his job and made the tour very interesting. All in all I would recommend the company and would book a different tour if we are ever in Bordeaux again.

Wonderful experience! Highly recommend!

The whole experience was great! The guide was lovely and we enjoyed ever part of it. Would have loved to get some ore free time in St Emilion but I can see that it would extend the day even further. Highly recommend this company and this tour!
