Simply perfect - My husband and I did this tour with out guide Clem. He was very knowledgeable and clearly very passionate about what he does. He was very friendly and we really enjoyed chatting with him throughout the afternoon. Both wineries were interesting and the tour around saint emillion was idyllic. The wines we tasted were perfect at both vineyards and the cheeses provided at the second winery were an added bonus. I couldn't recommend this tour anymore we had such a fantastic time. Thanks so much Clem

Jon made our day super special! - Jon was a great tour guide and took us to two beautiful wineries as well as showing us the sites of Saint Emillion. We were able to taste some amazing local wines. Jon covered the tour on his day off when another tour guide called in sick, which was much appreciated as meant we did not miss the experience. Jon provided lots of local recommendations in Bordeaux for food and drink after the tour. We had a great day thanks to Jon - thank you!!

Wonderful visit to St Emilion - What a wonderful afternoon spent in the company of Annabelle, who had so much knowledge to share! She has fantastic English and a deep understanding of her subject. We enjoyed the first winery as we learned so much about wine and its production. The village and church of St Emilion are beautiful places to visit. We loved the delicious ice cream made on the premises at the shop by the church. The second winery was very friendly, hospitable and relaxing, as well as very informative. We would welcome Annabelle in Scotland, if she would like to visit whisky distilleries.

SO much fun!! - This tour was amazing- I will definitely be trying to come back and do the full day. Our tour guide, John, was absolutely wonderful. Very inclusive, knowledgeable, and welcoming. We were able to visit 2 wineries and one wine shop in St-èmilion. Lots of amazing red wine tastings, with explanations regarding how it’s made etc. The first stop we made, the owner had forgotten about the tour, but the gardener let us in and we even got to taste a wine from the barrel as a treat. So cool!
Most of the wines we tasted throughout the day were in the low to moderate price range, very reasonable for wines to purchase and bring home.

Tour guide knowledgeable,... - Tour guide knowledgeable, but frequently touted it and poked fun when someone didn’t know as much. Mentioned several times it was his day off. Was overall good and understanding I was a few minutes late but also mentioned it. And felt kind of rushed throughout the tour.
