my greatest experience is, I’ve tasted the greatest wine in the world

5.00I finally found a wine that’s better than California. Shocking. I was surprised. I never did like French wine until now so the tour guide was humble yet I was shocked, amazed, and I’m very happy. I can say French wine is the best in the world on my personal opinion. If you don’t book the tour, you’re gonna miss out I’ve experienced it and I would say world class.
Loved the Pessac Region

5.00Paola was a fabulous guide. We loved this region of wine. We had two tours a larger winery and small family winery. Both were different experiences. The picnic was wonderful.

5.00Omg! Paola and Dante were WONDERFUL! We went to two wineries and had a lovely picnic at one. We were picked up in 2 vehicles (10 people scheduled) and they were so knowledgeable and kind and funny. The wineries were very good and we loved both our tours. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

5.00What an AMAZING tour! I want to do another private tour with Dante and Paola. We learned so much, laughed so hard and had the opportunity to experience some WONDERFUL wineries we would not have known to go to! Don’t hesitate…just book with them. They are fabulous and delightful people and we had so so much fun!
