Great experience, Sonia was very knowledgeable, professional and ensured everyone was comfortable with the format of the day. I’d definitely recommend and do it again

Excelent tour! Reccomend to anyone.

Sérgio Gomes 06/20/2023

Unlike the tour we took the day before ("Chateaux & Terroirs, on the Bordeaux wine roads"), which was pretty bad, this tour was excellent. Sonia was a very nice and kind guide. And the wines offered for tasting were of an excellent standard. I would definitely recommend this tour (Saint-Emilion afternoon half-day) to friends.

Great experience with Sonia!

David Morgan 12/05/2022

Very easy to organise and some very nice vineyard we were taken to where we were made to feel at home and surprisingly well entertained while enjoying the wine. Sonia took us to the highlights of Saint-Emilion and provided us with lots of interesting facts along the way. Highly recommend :)
