We loved our morning. Julie, our guide, worked so hard speaking in both English, for us, and French for the Belgian ladies who were in the tour with us, telling us about Bordeaux (history and current) and wine as well as happily answering our questions. The chateaux were interesting and the wine tasting enjoyable, sitting on a terrace overlooking the vineyards. The second part of our trip was a visit to St. Emilion village, brilliantly guided by Julie. She even kindly dropped us off at the railway station on the way back.

Mika tells a lot of interesting things and show the places that you would never discover by your self. He is very friendly and have a great presentation skills. Must do!

I honestly don't know where to start when trying to describe how much my wife and i enjoyed our private tours with Laura from Bordeaux with Elodie! I bought 2 private tours (Medoc and St Emilion) as a birthday present for my wife's 30th birthday (also secretly a bit for myself), and it far far exceeded my expectations. I initially contacted Elodie through the email provided on their website and the moment that she responded i knew that this would be a great tour. The response to my email alone showed how dedicated and passionate she was about her job, writing the itineraries so that they could be reviewed and my suggestions could be added if required. Throughout the 2 days, Laura pitched her chat perfectly to our wine knowledge and both of us really enjoyed the education without a single moment of feeling overwhelmed by it. The actual wine tastings were tastefully done and in some amazing locations. At one particular winery we went down into a wine cave network cellar where you could see where it had been originally excavated by hand many many years ago. The history of some of the places we visited was truly amazing! I won't go into details about the vineyards/wineries/chateaus that we visited but i would highly recommend a vertical tasting at Château de Ferrand - it was held in the most beautiful professional tasting room and was incredibly informative. Both myself and my wife felt so at ease and so comfortable with Laura from the moment we met her, it was like a friend was taking us on a wine tour. The fact that she was born in Bordeaux and that she has grown up surrounded by wine and the wine culture shows in her work. The passion and knowledge she has within her field is truly refreshing. The scenery is this part of France is beautiful, the wine is so so good, it's educational, it's fun and i can honestly say it's been some of the best days out we have ever had. I will be making sure that i visit again some day.... worth every penny.

My husband and I did a private tour of st. Emilion and Medoc in Feb. 2020 and it was a fantastic experience. Since we haven’t been able to travel back this past year we are now really enjoying their wine club. It is so great receiving handpicked bottles from Bordeaux. I highly recommend scheduling a tour or joining the wine club.
