It was a good day out though and very picturesque and the bus was very nicely air conditioned. would recommend if you want to know a bit of history and culture behind wine making :)”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 121 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $187

Spend about seven hours with an English-speaking guide such as Xavier, Margaux, René, or Valentin, traveling from Bordeaux to Saint-Émilion in a small air-conditioned van. Walk the UNESCO-listed village, visit three estates, taste Bordeaux wines, and enjoy a picnic lunch with Basque charcuterie, cheese, and château wine.

“Our guide, Margot, was excellent. I think she didn't stop talking, describing, teaching the entire length of our trip. The tour was well-spaced out visiting the town, then a winery with nice lunch, and then 2 other wineries. The second winery provided a lateral tasting of wines from Bordeaux, not just St Emilion, which was nice for better understanding of what, for example, Margaux has to offer differently. It was a very pleasant well organized trip, thoroughly enjoyed.”
