Wonderful experience! - Wonderful small group tour! Emanuel was very personable and knowledgeable about the area. We went to Chateau Coutet and learned much about wine and winemaking from George. We then went to St Emilion for a guided tour of the area

Wonderful half day tour, highly recommended! - We had a fantastic half-day tour to the medieval town of St. Emilion and a small organic winery. The town was quintessential, with charming cobblestone streets and historic architecture. It was lovely to see the wine-making process in a family-owned organic winery, where we learned about their dedication to sustainable practices. The wines were delicious, each offering unique flavors that reflected the care and tradition behind them. Thank you to our guide, Emanuel; he was a great guide, providing insightful commentary and making the experience truly memorable.

Worth it! - Very educational; about history, grapes, wine, governing bodies, soil, smell and taste. I’ve no doubt missed something. Our guide Milla, seemed to enjoy her job. She is very knowledgeable and very accommodating without allowing the day to waste. The guide at the Chateau could not have been more passionate about her employer, their history and their produce. The green/organic aspect was very interesting. I am definitely recommending this tour.
