A perfect morning experiencing the legendary terroir - we cannot wait to come back!

The wine was delicious, the landscapes were lovely, the vineyard tour was a terrific learning experience. Indeed, after years of visiting wine regions around Europe and California, this was my favourite experience of all. Highly recommend it - and if you can do a longer tour, go for it. Next time I will.

Absolut gelungener Tag

Super organisiert, sehr nette, sprachgewandte Führerin mit viel Wissen. Ich habe viel gelernt. Wir haben zwei tolle Weingüter besichtigt. Sehr feines Mittagessen. Moderne EBikes. Was mir besonders gefallen hat, ist, dass es nicht gestresst war. Man hatte überall genug Zeit, es war gemütlich.

Fantastic discovery of Saint Emilion

Marc VILLE 05/22/2022

We have chosen a half day during our stay in Bordeaux to escape from the city and discover Saint Emilion and taste some wines from Pomerol. Our guide Élise was perfectly fluent in French and English and has given us many explanations about the region. We were a total of 7 people in a very comfortable Mercedes van. At the end of the trip, Elise gave us some good advices on some restaurants we have further tested. Thank you Elise and all the best for your next tours.

Great day!

My wife and I had an excellent experience! Easy to meet in the morning, transportation was safe and comfortable, our guide Julie was fun & knowledgeable, lunch was delicious, it was fun to explore St Emilion, and we liked all the tastings. We learned a little something from each tasting, bought some wine during the tour, and shipped a case home. Our only regret is scheduling it too late in our stay in Bordeaux to take advantage of Julie's recommendations!

Fun afternoon

We booked the Saint-Emilion Wine Lovers (afternoon) tour. We had a lovely experience. Clem, our host, was friendly and knowledgeable. We loved trying different wines from the region and walking around Saint-Emilion. The highlight of the trip was visiting Château Bonalgue for a fun wine tasting with Tatiana. Highly recommended!

friendly and personal tour

Gerd Schneider 05/11/2022

The guide was extremely friendly, and to do this in the small group is for sure a benefit . It is a good way to get a first view on the wine - sites. The information on the actual wine making is extremely little and not provided by a winemaker - but a wine sales guy . The wine tasting was very "sales oriented", however a very good selection of wines

Excellent Tour

Harlan Day 05/03/2022

We enjoyed this half day tour very much. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The presentation at the winery was a highlight - we learned a lot, to be sure.
