We had a very good tour guide who was able to provide us with a lot of expert information. She took care of all the concerns of the 6 travelers. We were able to visit a winery with a wine tasting. At another winery, a wine tasting took place. Then we were also shown the town of St. Emilion. Everything was a complete success.
Thank you very much! We're glad you enjoyed this wine tour with us!
Enjoyed meeting people from around the world. Spent an afternoon at 2 wineries and visited the lovely town of St Emilion!

Emmanuel was excellent as our guide on this tour. He is passionate, knowledgeable and committed to sustainable tourist experiences in and around Bordeaux. We visited two amazing vineyards (both organic/biodynamic) and tasted some excellent wines (7 in total, incl. several grand crus), and had a good tour of St Emilion (with time allowed to explore the village independently).
Thank you very much Richard for you review. It was a real pleasure to have you on this tour, and I'm very happy you enjoyed it. All my best, Emmanuel
