A village tour not a wine tasting Tour

Lori_R, Apr 2025

Guides were fantastic! However, we thought we werebooking a half day wine tour. It was instead a half day walking tour that ended with a single wine tour. Overall it was a good tour but not as the title described. We wanted an afternoon of wine tastings.

St Emilion half day wine tour not recommended unless it is in one language.

Cannymissus, Oct 2024

This tour was an afternoon one beginning at 1.30. On October 28th 2024. Unfortunately it catered for both French and English speaking tourists at the same time . It would be far better to have separate days or times for each nationality as all of our time was taken up with alternate translations. This resulted in LONG periods of standing around and listening to another language before we could move on - also we saw less because of this - our time in St Emilion ( the medieval village), was less than satisfactory . Half an hour at most. This concern and disappointment was voiced by many of us on the trip after the fact. There was non stop talking by our guide on the bus which led to a good many admitting to just switching off. The information on wines given on the bus was also repeated at the vineyard. All in all I wouldn’t recommend this trip unless it catered for one language at a time I’m sorry to say.

Lovely Solo Travel Option

Went on the Médoc region tour, the tour guide (Bruno) was hilarious and so knowledgeable of the region and the winemaking process. Made for a great afternoon trip out of the city.
