    We had a wonderful afternoon and learned so much from Clemence, who was very knowledgeable, patient and very passionate about Bordeaux history and wine. Learning of the importance of the Brits 🇬🇧 influence so long ago, was of real interest!! Thanks Clemence! I can’t recommend this experience highly enough!!

    Fun overview of Bordeaux Wines!
    VIRGINIA_W, Sep 2023
    Clem was an enthusiastic tour guide for a brief walking tour of the Chartron area, followed by a fun and delicious tasting of wine and cheese pairings. She covered lots of useful information, including wine styles, regions, how to read labels, and the steps in wine tasting.
    Wine tasting
    Janette_P, Sep 2023
    Sadly, no one else booked so I was SMS’d the day before saying there would be no walking tour but they would include an extra wine for tasting. Ani, the enterprise owner had only opened the day before. There was no electricity at the venue. The guy was very personable and clearly knew his wines well. The event was not what I was expecting.
    Pedro was the best.....

    The only way to start your visit to Bordeaux!
    Melissa_G, Aug 2023
    We had a fabulous tour and tasting with Clement! It was a perfect way to learn about the history of Bordeaux and how it became the well know wine region it is today. Clement led us along the quaint lanes of the District of Chartrons where the wine trade of Bordeaux started. Amazing tour. But that's not all! We had a very user-friendly wine education at a local wine bar. Clement also gave us a tour through the wines of the Bordeaux region paired with delicious cheeses and bread. Armed with the new knowledge we learned from Clement, our next few days exploring the wines of Bordeaux were that much more richer! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone coming to Bordeaux for the first time!

    Exploring an Unusual Area of Bordeaux
    Randy_S, Aug 2023
    Gaz was an engaging and informative guide to a part of Bordeaux most people would not likely explore, namely the Chartrones area, which was "outside" of Bordeaux for a part of their history. We learned about the history of the wine making business and how the architecture of the area reflected that. We ended with a nice intimate wine tasting experience in a small wine shop to continue our lesson and enjoyment. A pleasant way to explore an unusual part of Bordeaux!
    Highly recommended
    John_C, Aug 2023
    We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and wine and cheese tasting with Kas!. Kas spoke loud enough and clear enough so that we were able to get a lot out of the tour. He shares very interesting information on the Bordeaux walking portion of the tour and the tasting portion. We would highly recommend him! He added a great deal to our knowledge of this famous growing region. Highly recommended!
    Learn lots and enjoy!

    Wine tour with Caz
    Gina_J, Jul 2023
    This tour was fantastic and that’s because of Caz our guide. He was so knowledgeable and he explained so much about the history of Bordeaux wine. Caz had a game-show competition about the 4 wines that was fun!!! I would definitely take another tour with Caz and recommend him without any doubt. You were smart to hire him.

    Wine & cheese in Bordeaux
    Elizabeth_D, Jun 2023
    We had a walk around the wine merchants area of Bordeaux with our guide, Clem. She informed us about the history and then took us to sample the wine & cheese. We learned about the colour, smell & taste of the wine while sampling some delicious cheese. We spent a very enjoyable afternoon, being well informed by a a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Highly recommend.

    Definitely recommend!
    Judith_H, May 2023
    Me and my father had a wonderful time with Ani as our tour guide. He did an amazing job explaining the Bordeaux wine region and its history and we were able to memorize a lot thanks to his unique way of explaining. We would definitely recommend this tour. We could have skipped the Cité du vine the following day since Ani had already explained everything perfectly ;)
    Response from Host, May 2023
    Hi Judith, Thank you so much for your lovely comment. It was a very nice time together. Keep tasting cheers!

    Really knowledgable and fun tour guide. He didn’t talk at us and flood us with information. Really lovely and well thought out tour and the wine and cheese tasting was lovely.
