5Visiting the three...
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!
5Great tour - St. Emilion
Luigi was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable, thoughtful and attentive to all of us. The tour covered 3 wine tastings, all were good.
5Excellent Tour and Guide!
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!
5Great tastes of Bordeaux and St Emilion
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.
5Dulce is a superb guide!...
Dulce is a superb guide! Knowledgeable and super friendly. We had a great time and the vineyards we have visited were awesome!
5Wonderful experience
We really enjoyed our day with Lea our guide for the full day wine tour and visit to St. Emilion. Lea kept us entertained and engaged on the way to and from the wineries. She was very knowledgeable about the wine industry and shared her knowledge with us in a fun and interesting manner. Along with the winery visits, Lea gave us a tour of St. Emilion and then we had free time to explore on our own. We really enjoyed our excursion and would recommend this to all.

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.
