An enthusiastic and engaging winery tour - What an excellent and engaging tour led by our host Luigi. An opportunity to try classic wines at prices we would not normally pay with friendly , enthusiastic and informative Chateau hosts and lovely co-travellers as well. Transported in an air conditioned mini bus . A nice wander around St-Emilion afterwards. 10/10

St Emilion wine tour - Our guide Luigi was great, very friendly and knowledgeable about the wine industry. He had the wine tastings very well organised in advance then took us to St Emilion - showed us the church, introduced us to macrons made the old fashioned way then allowed us to wander about for sometime and do our own thing. Great value for money!

Amazing wine tasting with Sonia - My boyfriend and I had an amazing tour with Sonia. She was a very friendly and informative guide. She created a nice dynamic in our group of 7, and it was nice to get to know everyone. We visited the two wineries with great instructors at each place. It was also nice to finish off with a tour of the beautiful city. Would definitely recommend!
