Would 100% recommend this tour. Tom was an amazing tour guide. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and gave great recommendations for what to do in Bordeaux after our tour. We went tasting when Bordeaux was 42C (104+ F!!!!) and Tom came prepared with lots of water and made sure we were comfortable the entire trip. We did not have enough time in Bordeaux, but will be taking another tour with Tom when we return.
Simon was a friendly and fantastic driver and guide as we toured two chateaux in Médoc. Simon described different parts of Bordeaux as we drove through the city and countryside, and also shared the history of the Citroën 2CV. He also showed us around a couple of points of interest in Margaux while between chateaux. His rose pink 2CV was clean and reliable, with the weather nice enough for him to open the top when we were in Médoc. The chateaux both included tours of the property and tastings. The guides at each chateaux spoke English and were able to share the history of their property as well as the complexities of the winemaking process. The tastings were ample and did not feel rushed or overly sales-oriented.
Our driver, Ocean was so lovely and accommodating, though our schedule changed at the last minute. She was charming and helpful.
An unforgettable experience with a driver with little care (Tom) who has an impressive and exciting knowledge about the city of Bordeaux, its history and the 2CVs. To be made and remade.
This tour is a must-do in Bordeaux! From the moment we met Julien, our delightful guide/driver, and saw the vintage Citroen, we knew we were in for an unforgettable experience. Our 11 year old son loved riding around in the antique car, and our lovely hosts at the two wineries we visited provided him with grape juice and violet-flavored water. The wineries were beautiful and our hosts were so kind and informative. Julien even took plenty of photos for us on our journey. Don’t miss this tour!
Fantastic tour of the area! The wines are delicious and learning about the history of the wine industry was very interesting! Good a bonus tour of Bordeaux too!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and had a fantastic time exploring the area. It’s wonderful that you found the wines delicious and appreciated the insights into the history of the wine industry—it’s a story we love sharing with our guests. We’re also glad you enjoyed the bonus tour of Bordeaux! It’s such a charming place with so much to offer. We hope to welcome you back in the future for more unforgettable experiences. Cheers! 🍷
An absolute delight; especially grateful for Bonnie and her communication - highly recommended (and delicious wines too)!
Wonderful experience! Océane was friendly, knowledgeable, and a great driver. Both chateaus visited offered different prospective on the history of the area and processes for making the wine. Would recommend this experience for anyone looking for a more intimate experience while in Bordeaux!
I highly recommend this tour! Our tour guide was very friendly and showed us the city and 2 nice Châteaus. We had also nice tours on the win yards and for sure a good tasting. We were also able to drive the 2CV for a couple of minutes. If you search something special, do this tour - even if you are not a big fan of old cars.
Our guide, Oceane, is terrific. We visited two very nice chateau and a fantastic chocolate shop. Oceane also showed us a relic in Bordeaux, the Palais Gallien, from the Roman era. So many people admired the old Citroen convertible!
