Catherine was an excellent guide, very informative, fun and shared her knowledge of wines and the region so thoroughly. Her curated itinerary didn’t disappoint. She was attentive and delivered on the highlights of this tour!
We booked a private trip to three wineries. Our guide was Paul, and he was an absolutely perfect guide! Very likable, well-acquainted with the area, and provided us with excellent information! The selected wineries fit very well with this tour. Thank you again, and if we are back in Bordeaux, we would gladly book a tour again! We booked a private tour of three wineries. Our guide was Paul, and he was absolutely brilliant! He was very friendly, knew the area inside out, and provided us with a wealth of information! The wineries we visited were a perfect fit for this tour. Thank you so much again – we will definitely book another tour when we are back in Bordeaux!
Catherine Caquelot and her team are experienced and compassionate tour guides. We used them for our three days in Bordeaux. They picked us up from the airport in a Mercedes small van which we used all four days and drove us to our Airbnb. Catherine and I had previously discussed the three days we would drive around the chateaux and the city of Bordeaux. She was very helpful in helping us choose our itinerary. Each day was beautifully experienced by us. The first day we went to the village of St. Emilion and three chateaux. Each had a different historic significance. We had a delicious picnic at one of the chateaux. The second day we toured Bordeaux. Anais, our driver and guide gladly accommodated our specific requests. We had a delicious lunch. The third day we went to Medoc where we visited two chateaux and a boutique chocolate maker. We chose to omit the third chateau offered. We had a picnic at the chateau Larrieux which has always been owned by women since the 1500’s. On the fourth day, they took us back to the airport. I highly recommend Aquitaine Limousine if you are visiting Bordeaux and the wine chateaux.
We had a lovely day with Hugo as our guide. Exploring the Chateau Fonplegade was not only educational but stunningly beautiful and ending with the charcuterie and wine pairing was icing on the cake. Hugo was informative and accomodating.
Thank you guys for your nice review. It has been a lovely day spent with you, to let you discover the places we like, and these little gems off the tracks.
Beware of what is included. The tour is expensive, approximately $900, and we were advised on the day of the tour that we needed to pay an additional 400 Euros for the wine tastings. This left a bad taste in our mouth.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We would like to clarify that tasting and entrance fees are clearly outlined in the experience description on Viator and were also communicated prior to the tour. This information is always provided in advance to ensure full transparency for our guests. We also note that this was shared at a stage when modifications or cancellation remained possible. The price mentioned in your review does not reflect the actual cost of the experience. We regret that your comment does not reflect the experience itself. Our tours are carefully designed to offer a seamless, curated journey through Bordeaux’s vineyards, led by knowledgeable guides and consistently appreciated by our international guests. Should you wish to discuss this further, we would be happy to assist you directly. Aquitaine Limousine Team
We had a wonderful day in St Emilion and had wine tasting at 3 private wineries with Katherine. She had a very good knowledge about the area and made the journey super special.
This was anticipated to be the highlight and even the main purpose of our visit to Bordeaux and Catherine our guide made it absolutely so. She picked us up at our hotel in her lovely Range Rover, stopped off for a special local treat from the bakery en route and gave us lots of information about the history of the area and the appellations as we went. We visited 3 wineries each quite different from the others but all very interesting and worthwhile. The first one was especially lovely with a tasting of 5 wines inside the chateau. At the second and third , we saw the harvest in full flow as well as tasting more delicious wine. Between the first and second we had a lovely lunch in a restaurant just outside St Emilion which was delightful. Just a brilliant day, superbly organised and executed by Catherine. We would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a private tour experience.
Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to welcome you!
Fabulous, flexible, exclusive, beautiful, historic, accommodating - we had two little kids and two elderly— was very accommodating and customized experiences so children had a great time with games and puzzles and things to do at the wineries. Thank you Catherine!
Dear Shelly, It has been a pleasure to welcome you in Bordeaux and show you the must to see! You will be welcome again! Thank you for your confidence.
Catherine was wonderful and accommodating! We enjoyed the tour she arranged for us very much! We got to try a few vineyards and experiences were all great! No complains and totally worth the price!
Thank you for your nice review! Hope to see you again!
Our group of 13 (8 adults and 5 kids) took two tours during a weeklong visit to Bordeaux. One day to Saint Emilion and one to Medoc. Our guide, Margaux, was absolutely fantastic. Our group needed a lot of accommodations for the meals because our group included young kids and vegans. Margaux made sure everyone had delicious food to eat and the lunches on the tour days were some of the best meals we had in France. She also made sure that the kids had a place to hang out while the adults were learning about and tasting the wine. Margaux also accommodated our requests throughout both days including particular châteaux we wanted to see and adapting the tours so that we weren’t getting repeat information at each location. Margaux and our driver, Rashid, were patient with our large group and made both days a lot of fun. I would absolutely recommend tours with this company!
Dear Elizabeth, We thank you very much for choosing our company. I tried to organize for you taylor made day, that you will remenber. I am happy that you enjoyed it. Catherine
