Great Tour Saint Emilion - It was a very enriching experience about the Bordeaux region. The guide Maureen gave us an incredible experience. We had a great time and I highly recommend this excursion, which includes a wine tasting in a cave. The whole tour was well led by the fantastic guide Maureen, who was very informative and very friendly.
We learned a bit of history and had an amazing wine tasting.

Landscapes and buildings of enormous beauty. - Tour too expensive for what was given. Explanations scarce and without much depth. You cannot access historical monuments.
