Great way to spend an afternoon

Farrah Kelleher 03/30/2025

Easy collection from city centre, two different winery’s with some great background information shared from the tour guide. Plus we got some time in Saint Emillion between the two.

Amazing day in St Emilion with Jon

April Pett 03/29/2025

My friend and I spent an afternoon in St Emilion with Jon. He truly is a great guide and very knowledgeable about wine! From the moment we met, he was charismatic and he really made us feel like VIP clients all throughout the day! Both the wines and winemakers at Chateau Cadet Bon and Chateau Grangey were superb. We learned a lot and enjoyed many goats with our new friends. Jon even organised a golf cart ride through the vineyards with Frank at Chateau Grangey and indulged us with some local delicacies and homemade tapenade. Merci beaucoup Jon for an amazing and memorable day! Santé!

5 Star Experience in Saint Emilion

Ashley Crane 02/13/2025

As wine lovers, we were excited to experience Saint Emilion with Bordeaux Wine Trails in the off season. We had the best day exploring two local wineries, getting a chance to taste delicious reds and learn from the wine producers. We also got a chance to explore the charming town of Saint Emilion with a walking tour and free time. Our guide, Clément, was super knowledgeable and passionate about wine and the region of Bordeaux. He was open to answering all our questions and made the tour that much more enjoyable. We had the best day and highly recommend this tour no matter what time of year!
