Educational and Entertaining

Eric G 10/17/2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our half day tour to two Chateaus in Medoc. Clem, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and passionate about his home city of Bordeaux and the wines of the region. We would definitely recommend this tour!

Brilliant experience

Christopher Sykes 09/17/2024

Alex our tour guide was very professional and knowledgeable, he was able to answer all our questions on wine food and Bordeaux. We all had a great time travelling and in the wineries. We would all highly recommend this tour it is nicer to do with a Small group. We got to taste 7 wines and were given a bottle for our group to share at the last winery after sampling 3 of their wines. Overall for what you are getting private transfer / knowledgable sommelier / tour guide and to visit 3 wineries and have tastings in 2 it is well worth the cost would highly recommend. I would add the guides in the wineries were super and very knowledgeable we learnt a lot .

Terrific tour guide

Alex is a talented tour guide that made our afternoon full of fun and joy. He kept entertaining us throughout the whole afternoon with expertise knowledge of wines and talks & jokes on French culture, etc. Thanks to the cheerful, humorous atmosphere that he created, people in our group became good friends immediately. I took another tour of the same company with a different guide, but did not enjoy it as much as did in Alex's group. Since it is a pricy tour, make sure to be in Alex's group and it will be worth the price. A tour guide makes a BIG difference.

Alex was a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic host Great venues and good fun. Watch out for the quiz. Alex loves driving so much that he took us over the same bridge twice just to make sure we were paying attention. Thanks from the Aussies
