Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful and spoke English very well. He was born and raised in the area and had a wealth of knowledge about the wine making process and the area in general. Worth every $ spent and an absolute MUST do when visiting Bordeaux. They don't always stop at the same locations and always pick the best locations based on that time of the year. Highly recommended and super easy to reach the pick-up location.luvooU

I liked the friendly explanation of the guide and the fruitful route. On the other hand, the cold lunch was a bit disappointing.

Overall, outstanding day! Julie was extremely knowledgeable , very pleasant and attentive. The wine tours were highly informative and a good variety of vineyards. We especially enjoyed Katrina’s presentation/tour at Chateau Dauzac. Lunch was delicious and a great break in the day. The walking tour of St Emilion was a great way to end the day - Julie continued to impress with her knowledge of the history and culture of the town. Highly recommend this tour!!ShaunS612

Estelle was a nice guide. Spoke good English and had pretty good knowledge of the area. The second half of the trip was in Medoc, which was more enjoyable as it included visits to three chateaus and wine tasting in two of them, with the last one being a renowned winery. Saint Emilion visit included only one winery tour and self stroll in the village. The sad part was a oven warmed lunch in the office which felt totally weird at one time.J_T

I think this is great trip. Comprehensive. I mean we can’t expect to do all of Medoc and st Emillion but it is a good overview. Only thing I will prefer is to visit more grand cru Classé chateaux
