This trip was amazing and I would highly recommend it to others. It was good fun riding the motorcycle and Alexandre was fantastic!!! He was super helpful and considerate. My husband is in a wheelchair but this didn't stop Alexandre to take the booking. He made it all possible which is amazing as we often face made obstacles that makes thing very inaccessible. It was a lot of fun. Thank you for a great day out!!!

We really enjoyed our experience in Saint Emilion, the picnic was very good, and our guide was very interesting, very knowledgeable, and could easily answer all our questions. The tasting at the end was also very pleasant. Thanks
