This was a brilliant tour that we highly recommend to anyone looking for a chance to visit a vineyard to Bordeaux. Our tour guide Colas was very informative and friendly, making sure everyone was getting the most out of the experience in relation to their personal wine knowledge. He even took the time to recommend some restaurants and bars for us to visit during the rest of our time in Bordeaux. We were able to taste 3 different wines at the Château, which were all amazing. We were then allowed some time to explore the village of Saint Emillion, which was beautiful and not too busy with tourists in February. The experience is 4 hours long in total, with a 40 minute drive each way from Bordeaux. We felt that this was well worth the money, and gave us time to enjoy the rest of our day when we returned around lunchtime.

Educational and fun. I was a little nervous since my partner had to drop out last minute, but it wasn't awkward at all to go solo! In fact, it was a mixture of people in pairs as well as solo travelers. Would definitely recommend.

Saint-Emilion is beautiful and the wine is excellent but the tour guides made the experience so much better. they were so friendly and helpful I would definitely recommend booking a tour with them

First of all - Emanuel was great! a true wine expert! he was funny, knowledgeable, knew a lot of the history & had great recommendations! the winery visit - was amazing!

Great guide! Well planned and organized. Enjoyed the choices of wineries.
