Brilliant tour, our guide Janika was super, full of knowledge on area and winerys, keep the whole trip fun. Both winerys visited were friendly and went through process behind making there wines. The tasting was a bonus too. The bus trip bring you through some of the most beautiful landscapes and by impressive chateaux. Well worth it.

Really great experience despite bad weather. Didn’t really see the grape vines up close but it was heavily raining so understood why they may not want people trampling through the vineyards. The whole process was talked through with opportunities to take photos the whole time, ask questions and buy souvenirs with no pressure as they understood wine is difficult to travel with.

The city of Bordeaux was beautiful. As well as the town of St Emilion. And the winery was enjoyable.

Amazing trip to a beautiful little village of Saint Emilion and a fantastic tour of a chateau vineyard. Our tour guide was brilliant, she gave us great facts and stories and the bus ride. The bus itself was clean and air-conditioned. We got 45 minutes of free time in the village, I wish this was longer (but this is only half day tour). The Winemaker at the vineyard was phenomenal, he was funny and really made us feel welcome also giving us the history of the chateau and the winemaking process - and a little magic ;) we got to taste 2 lovely wines. You can purchase a bottle if you please. The bus dropped back to Bordeaux tourist office. Highly recommend, excellent tour for excellence price.
