This was a really good experience with a guide Vincent who really knew his wine. Choice of a small family vineyard near St. Emilion for tasting was great. We asked too many questions, so we were short on time looking round St. Emilion. The only downside was the broken loudspeaker which made listening in the minibus difficult.

I truly enjoyed one day trip to Saint Emillion with a guide Emanuel. Nice wine tasting at the organic winery garden and walking in the historical town.

Guide was brilliant. It meant a lot to me to go to a self sustaining organic vineyard. And the history of the town was so fascinating. If you pick any tour this is the one!

We wanted to see St Emilion and visit a Boardeaux winery in half a day in a relaxed manner and this tour completely met the brief. It was an intimate tour with 8 in a van, led by the very informative Emmanuel who took us to a lovely organic winery and then on a balanced paced and informative walking tour of the village of St Emilion. A relaxed and enjoyable half day excursion out of Boardeaux!

The guide we had was very informative and interesting. The town was beautiful. Also our guide bought and shared macarons which originated in St. Emilion and that made the trip memorable.
