5Wonderful day. Our guide...
Wonderful day. Our guide Lea was great and very knowledgeable. Vineyards and wineries visited were spot on. We bought a case and shipped to US so you know it was good especially the last stop at Chateau Dauzac
5Best wine trip to Medoc!
Since I toured St Emilion the day before, I wasn’t sure if I should take another wine tour to Medoc. However, I am so grateful that I did! This wine region of France is very charming with story book looking chateaus and fabulous red wines. Our tour guide, Rudolph, was fantastic and very knowledgeable. He had quite the sense of humor which made the day fun but also made everything very educational about wines and the region. He even had a fun game on the ride home. The chateaus that were chosen were each very unique and had its own vibe which kept things interesting for the day. I would definitely take this tour again and highly recommend a full day trip to Medoc with this company. My only advice is to leave early if you are taking an uber bc the city center traffic (where the meeting place is located) is very busy in the morning. I almost missed the van.
5Amazing!
Rodolphe was amazing! He knew so much about wine and the area it made our tour unforgettable. What a great day.
2Big disappointment!
Unfortunately we found this experience to be very disappointing. Our driver and guide was very nice and informative. However the guide at the first winery was indifferent and difficult to understand. The wines poured at all three wineries were not high quality. We have visited wineries all over the world and were excited to come to such a prestigious wine area in France. I cannot recommend this activity.
5Might be the best Viatour ever!
This day tour from Bordeaux with only 6 participants, felt private and very personal! The itinerary itself was delightful, 3 chateaux with wine tasting and photo stops at additional gorgeous locations! The lunch break took us to a coastal town with numerous restaurants to choose from. The real highlight of our trip was the guide, Dulce! She is knowledgeable, caring, friendly and all around gem! Due to a recent foot injury, my walking ability was a bit limited yet Dulce made sure that I was comfortable and able to enjoy the day to the fullest! I’ve used Viatour for years and can confidently say this was at least one of the top 3 tours we’ve ever taken!
5Excellent guided tour by Oscar
Had a great time touring the medoc region. Oscar was fantastic as a guide, and he is very passionate about Bordeaux wines! Easily understandable (English). This was the best thing we did in Bordeaux.

About Bordeaux
Bordeaux, on the Garonne in south-west France, is a stone-fronted port city and the centre of one of the world's great wine regions.
The pale limestone façades of the eighteenth century give Bordeaux an elegant, even look, and the curve of the Garonne, the Port of the Moon, is part of its UNESCO listing. Place de la Bourse faces the river, and the Miroir d'eau, a shallow reflecting pool, mirrors it. The Grand Théâtre, Saint-André Cathedral with its separate Pey-Berland tower, and the long pedestrian Rue Sainte-Catherine make up the centre.
Top-ranked sights in Bordeaux: Place de la Bourse (Place Royale), Porte Cailhau, Grosse Cloche.
