Introduction to Left bank Bordeaux wines. Transported out and back to two different appellations wineries. Each a guided tour including tasting. Purchasing available (and I was surprised how affordable considering these are great wines)
Amazing guide, knowledgeable, helpful, and very kind.
Very interesting 2 tours. Both are located close to each other and not far from the starting point Bordeaux. 2 different wineries were chosen: 1 classified as Grand Cru and the other not, so that the differences could be highlighted.
We had an amazing time. Everything was planned for us, the van was very comfortable with lots of leg room making for a comfortable ride. Each winery was unique and the team that greeted us at each place was friendly and professional. They were expecting us and everything was very organized. Our host was so knowledgeable and we learned so much.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We’re delighted to hear the day flowed so smoothly and that you felt well taken care of throughout the tour. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed the comfort, the warm welcomes at each stop, and the guidance along the way. We truly appreciate your review and hope to welcome you again on a future visit to Bordeaux.
Excellent full day tour with a wonderful guide! We visited 2 Chateaux's and ended our day in Saint-Emilion. It was a pleasure spending our day with Paola and listening to her explain about the different wine regions in Bordeaux. The scenery was gorgeous! We visited 2 Chateaux's and had a 'picnic' lunch at the 2nd one. She served us a large charcuterie board with enough food+++ for 7 or 8. There were leftovers. It was accompanied by a bottle of wine which was plenty for everyone. We ended the day in Saint-Emilion where we were given the choice to wander on our own or do a 3rd tasting. We chose the tasting. We enjoyed this one as it gave us 6 tastings from different regions. It was nice to be able to compare the differences among wines in the area. We were originally booked with this tour company for the 1/2 day tour. It was low season and they didn't have enough participants so they offered us the full day tour at the same price. We were very happy that we ended up doing this one. I'm sure the 1/2 day tour is also great but we were very happy it turned out to be a full day. The name of the tour company is Entre Vides Bordeaux. We highly recommend them!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. It’s wonderful to know that your full‑day experience felt so complete and enjoyable, from the château visits to the picnic and the final tasting in Saint‑Émilion. I’m delighted that the day flowed naturally for your group and that each stop added something special to the experience. It was truly a pleasure to guide you and make sure everything was taken care of so you could simply enjoy the region and its wines. We’re very happy that the upgrade to the full‑day tour made your visit even more memorable. You’ll always be welcome back at Entre Vides Bordeaux whenever you wish to explore more of this beautiful region. Warm regards
