Fantastic day with Daniela! - Daniela was our tour guide for the day trip to St Emillion - we had a great visit to a small family chateau, followed by a larger chateau and then the town in St Emillion. All three were really enjoyable and the whole day was made perfect by Daniela being the best host! An easy day out from Bordeaux and well worth doing. We travelled as 2 adult couples and had a fantastic day.

Bordeaux Trip - Daniela was a fantastic guide, great energy and full of great details she was very helpful in explaining the tour, the region of Bordeaux and the system for classifying wines. Each of the tastings happened at a good pace and we had a little bit of free time to wander. The views are spectacular and again, I can’t say enough good things about Daniela, she really made it a great experience from door to door.

Lovely day - Ed was a fantastic guide, and we enjoyed our day tasting wines! Easy way to try different Bordeaux with knowledgeable people. The wines were a good representation of the different types of Bordeaux available. Seeing the town of St Emilion was a great way to cap off the tour.

Exceeded our expectations! - Daniela is an excellent tour guide. We visited two very different chateaus and learned very much about wine growing in the region. The wine and food, as well as the camaraderie were excellent. A stop in historic St Emilion with wine tasting made the day complete. Despite a quite rainy day, the tour was a complete success!!! Highly recommended!!!!

Well organised day out - We did the one day wine tour around st Emilion and it was well organised and our guide Daniela was fabulous. The two chateaux we visited were of the small, family-run type but wines were very good. The time spent in St Emilion could have been longer, and the wine merchant we visited was a small one. I would have preferred to visit the cloisters instead.
Overall it was a good day out, no need to worry about booking wine tastings and driving etc., however if you want to visit big names and taste the most expensive stuff you might want to rent a car and design your own tour.
