5.00Communication was excellent, pick up easy and organisation. The van was comfy, the driver was fun, knowledgeable, informative and a genuinely nice guy! The 2 wineries were beautiful, the location, the wines were lovely. The location and the knowledge of the people were excellent. The walk around Saint-Émilion was gorgeous, the local wine bar we visited was lovely in the free time we had. The food from the tour guide at the 2nd winery was gorgeously presented, tasted incredible and paired excellently with the wine. The best wine tour I've been on, Thank you so much François!
Informative, personal and culinary!

5.00Absolutely best day with Gilbert from Bordeaux Wine Trails. They tailored the day to accommodate our two kids, ages 7 & 10. We were all engaged and learned a lot! They kids enjoyed the treats and interactive experiences throughout and we appreciated visiting smaller chateaux and having more intimate tasting experiences. A day we’ll never forget, thanks to Gilbert!

5.00We had a delightful tour of St Emilion with a total of 7 guests. The 2 wineries were small family run operations and we were able to meet directly with the owner/operator in one case. Our guide, Gilbert was fantastic and brought first hand knowlege and humor to our tour. Highly recommend!
Nice wine tour!

5.00Our wine tour to the Saint-Émilion region was fantastic. A big thank you to our guide François, who shared his vast knowledge and made this experience unforgetable. We visited two wineries, one using classical wine making methods, and one using contemporary methods. We learned so much about the production of wine, and what makes Saint-Émilion wines unique.

4.00Our host was great. We liked the small winery he chose as our second tour, but not so much the first one, although the Chateau was lovely.
