Wasn’t what we expected
Liz Mcmunn 07/25/2026
We booked the tuk tuk experience. Was a very quick trip round the surrounding area, which was nice. Once underground the driver crashed the tuk tuk twice.. which ended in us doing a walking tour with another group. We were the only English and got a little forgotten along the way. Ended with the tasting which was cramped and rushed, as another group were already in the room tasting. Lovely place and friendly staff, but just not the experience we expected

Different experience

For novelty factor I would recommend. However for an hour it really is quite pricey and could do with being longer even by 30 mins which would have allowed the guide who was very informative to explain and show us more

Amazing loved it

It was a pleasant trip in a Tuk tuk with a lovely guide who told us about the local area and great company. The tuk tuk made wine fun for my son

Electric tuk tuk at Les Cordeliers on 7/7/26 afternoon

On a very hot afternoon at St Emilion, the electric tuk tuk was great way to have a view of the vineyards nearby, instead of cycling or walking. The underground caves were cool literally, & interesting for new visitors. Guide was good & had necessary knowledge.

Very disappointing
Naomi Mills 07/05/2026
The girl taking our tour was friendly but didn't seem confident with her knowledge. She didn't have much to share with us, and seemed confused about how to do things (to even collecting all our glasses, mixing them up and thinking we would drink from another person's used glass). Our guide aside, some information and 3 of the smallest tasters I had in the whole region I felt it was vastly overpriced for what we experienced

Great tour.
