Thoroughly recommend - This was an excellent half day tour! We met our tour guide at the tourist office and got into a very comfortable car with our tour guide - the journey was about an hour, and we got lots of interesting information and conversation on the way. We got to see the beautiful village of Saint Emillion with some free time to explore. We then went to Chateau Bellevue for a fantastic wine tasting experience - Karim was so helpful and lovely, and gave us lots of information in an entertaining way. The wine was delicious too! This trip really enhanced our trip to Bordeaux and I would thoroughly recommend.

Fantastic experience end to end - With some of the best weather bordeaux had to offer, we had an amazing tour St Emillion and a chateau. Completely different experience than being in Medoc (left bank) so highly recommend doing both to spot the differences between the two.

Excellent - What a great half day we had with Luigi. A friendly, knowledgeable guide and very accommodating. We visited a beautiful winery and had a very nice afternoon. I would highly suggest it. We headed on to the village and spent 45 mins exploring. It was Busy enough so I can only imagine how crowded it gets in summer.

Good tour - very informative - Great tour guides - very informative. The village is well worth a visit on its own - but if you’re short on time - this is the trip for you. Learned lots about wine and history. Don’t get to taste much wine but it was nice.

Great little wine tasting tour - We had a great tour guide in Jerome who was witty and knowledgeable and gave a great explanation on the wine making process. Saint Emillion is a charming little village. If you want to stay longer in the village you can get a train back to Bordeaux. Highly recommended.
