Great company and loved biking
Amazing tour—I would absolutely do it again! This was my favorite experience in Bordeaux. The bike ride itself was beautiful, and everyone was so friendly. Our tour guide was incredible—knowledgeable, accommodating, and passionate. I learned so much about wine and even got to meet the people who make it. If anything, I only wish we had tasted a bit more wine, but the extra biking was something I really loved

Vineyard Trip Around Saint-Emilion
Had a fantastic trip up and around Saint-Emilion with my fiancee, two other people Derek & Megan from Toronto and Jorens our tour guide.
It was a great to experience and the first time we’d done a vineyard tour. We all had E-bikes too, which was a lovely way to ride in and around the vineyards and see how the wineries go about harvesting their own produce.
Jorens our tour guide was brilliant, really approachable and very accommodating and had a wealth of knowledge, which he shared with us really well.
I would definitely recommend the Rustic Vines tour in Bordeaux, as it was an excellent experience and really fun way to explore the vineyards on E-bikes.
Kind Regards

Fantastic E-bike day tour
We had a really wonderful day with Daniel who was such a great host - so knowledgeable and a lot of fun too! He made the day very special for us. The Chateaux we visited were very interesting, the wines were delicious, as was our lunch. All in all a fantastic experience and excellent value!

Fantastic 'day out' visiting excellent vineyards, cycling through magical landscape with exceptionally knowledgeable guide.
I would recommend this trip to anyone who enjoys some activity with wine tasting and wishes to learn about Bordeaux and the complexity of the wines it has to offer and the challenges of winemaking with our current climate and changes in the way we drink now. Our guide, Theo, was really excellent; he pitched the trip perfectly.

Full Day Tour e-bike tour
I took this tour as a solo traveller. It was an absolutely fantastic experience. The e-bikes were a great way to explore the area - and get a breeze on a warm day! Dante was an brilliant host, very interesting and very knowledgeable. He made the whole day very enjoyable and made everyone feel at ease. The tours of the Chateaus and the wine tastings were great. Pitched at a really good level for wine connoisseurs and people who, like me, have no great knowledge. I learned loads. What can I say about lunch - it was an absolute treat, was just perfect. They catered for the fact I was a vegetarian with delicious alternatives to the meat for the other guests. I genuinely had the best time on this tour. I highly advise booking this if you are in Bordeaux

Fun and informative tour
Great tour! The wines were fantastic and varied, the lunch was delicious, and Saint-Emilion is really picturesque. Our guide Daniel and the staff that welcomed us in the different wineries were all amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable. I definitely left with a new appreciation for wine and the wine making process - even though I've been to several wineries before.
As a side note, when booking I was a little worried that the longer tour which includes Medoc might be a bit too much for one day, but it was actually really nicely paced and I thoroughly enjoyed it till the end!
