Great day discovering St Emilion
Carina Buckley 08/11/2025
A fabulous and well-paced day out, led by the funny and informative Astrid who entertained and educated and brought history to life! We visited some stunning locations, were made very welcome at two great vineyards, and explored St Emilion both above and below ground, with plenty of time to see everything we wanted. We would highly recommend, whether for couples, families (with older children/teenagers) m, or lone travellers.

Great way to see the wine region

Great guide, both wine tastings were interesting and long, the church tour was fascinating, and there was enough free time in the town. The tour was better than anticipated!

Brigitte was an excellent guide
Frederic Minvielle 07/14/2025
We loved the guidance from Brigitte who was very knowledgeable and funny. The trip was well organized. Since we tasted quite rich red wines I would suggest pairing them with cheese to make the tasting more enjoyable.
