A great tour and something a little different.
James Daintith 05/31/2026
This really is an exceptionally enjoyable and quirky tour. In addition to learning some history on several vineyards and chateaus, the Tuk Tuk tour of the caves was excellent. Great value and a very pleasant wine tasting to end your trip.

Nice to do….

When I booked it said that if there were more French than English the English tour would be done in French… there were 10 people, so French it was… we were given a printed copy…. I am not sure why it on some places could not have been done it both languages it just made it not very interesting which was a shame….

Be prepared to read the tour if you speak English
Julia Higgs 05/22/2026
The location of the tour was convenient and the price is decent. However, our tour operator treated as an inconvenience. The tour was in French, even though we were led to believe it would have English translations. Instead you are asked to read about the locations, but the cave portion was not on the printed sheet. Reading the tour means you can't enjoy the view. We were told to be quiet when we asked questions as she emphasized the time table she had to keep.

Great experience, the young lady that took us round was super friendly, knowledgably and helpful. A great mix of vineyard, cellars and tasting. Lasts around 1 hour 15 minutes which was very good value indeed. 100% recommend.

Great experience

This was a really good experience as we got to see the outskirts and Vineyards of St Emillion from the cart whereas on foot we might not have made it to those locations. Very cool caverns under the chateau as well! Great guides!
