I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this experience. Regis was our tour guide and was super accommodating of the things that we wanted to see and learn about, he had endless recommendations and knowledge about the region and the vineyard we saw. He hand sculpted our tour so that we could have the perfect afternoon, and even stopped at the perfect spots to see the whole town and vineyards. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!!

Me and 5 of my friends went on the tour with Regis, and it was the most incredible experience. The car ride was filled with history and information about Bordeaux and Saint Emilion, then we arrived to the vineyards and it was so beautiful. We had the most amazing time and tasted 4 different wines. Couldn’t recommend it more!

We were three of us from india accompanied with another group from Australia. This tour gives you the experience of both the banks ie medoc and st emillion. Although it started off with a gloomy rainy day, our guide- gallard was so cheerful and really lifted our spirits high. She is well versed with history and great in communicating.
Must goo!

Could not fault this trip. Great wines and glorious scenery, but what made it so great was the organisation and our guide Theo. So knowledgeable and great fun. We learnt about the villages and history as well as the wines. Nothing was rushed and we had a chance to relax at each place. Do this trip!!!!

Brilliant day. 6/7 wines, most 1er Cru. The Medoc tasting was the best experience and the visit to St Emillion was fun. Highly recommend.

Our guide, Kaiu, was great. He gave us knowledgeable background on the three chateaux before we arrived, plus general information about vineyards in Bordeaux. The picnic lunch was lovely, as were the wines. After the vineyards, Kaiu led us on an interesting tour of the medieval village of St. Emilion. The minivan was a bit crowded for the 8 people in the tour, but since four were a family they didn’t seem to mind squishing in. We never felt rushed and we started and ended exactly as promised. Great day, great trip, great guide.
