Visiting the three...
Angel_B, October 2026
Visiting the three wineries gave us good appreciation of the rules and processes that create the iconic Bordeaux wines. We also enjoyed the opportunity to explore St Emilion on our own for a couple of hours. Fun day!

Excellent Tour and Guide!
Meg_F, October 2026
Our trip was wonderful! Guy was an outstanding guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable about history, wine and the region in general, and was very kind and patient with us. One of our group had a medical issue and needed a pharmacy, but didn’t speak French. Guy came in with her and translated for the pharmacist, which we felt went above and beyond. He was also a very skilled driver, navigating us through traffic from a student protest, and we felt very safe and comfortable. St. Emilion was a charming village and the winery/chateaux experience was very educational. We would highly recommend this tour and Guy in particular!

Hugo gave a great experience and got us around all the traffic blocks.so we missed out on nothing. Advice for the “explore on our own” parts were great. Tastings were superb and all those guides were helpful and kind in answering lots of questions. Highly recommend.
