Cecilia is a brilliant guide. Knowledgeable about the local area, vineyards and wines. Will be back to travel with you and Josephine.
What an unforgettable ride! We wanted an original way to visit the Médoc and everything was perfect: from communication with Cécilia to the discovery of the car on arrival at our hotel, to the choice of Castles! We opted for picnic, delicious products! Throughout the tour, interesting exchanges with our guide and lots of attention that made this experience a magical moment!
Incredible tour with a knowledgeable host. Really cool car that made the experience special. My wife and I had a great time and enjoyed some good wines.
