Treat yourself to a unique experience: a vintage sidecar ride through the vineyards. Meet in the heart of the medieval village of Saint-Emilion, where your driver/guide will welcome you, provide you with a helmet and gloves, and go over the safety instructions! And then—it’s time for adventure! Your gentleman sider will take you along small country roads winding through the vineyards and unforgettable landscapes dotted with famous Châteaux.
