Amazing ! Alex, I cannot thank you enough for your tour and your flexibility. I have spent the last 20 years traveling the world and also learning about wine. Your tour stands out among the best. It was so much fun riding the sidecar though the city and through the vineyards. We enjoyed visiting both wineries and getting to taste the wines (one can order the wine from both places and have it shipped as there is not much room in the sidecar). That sidecar is one of the most comfortable seats I have ever had We also enjoyed Alex’s insights about Bordeaux and other places to visit.

Amazing Tour !I loved this tour, Alex is a very nice guy and was great to spend the day with him, he knows the best places to taste very good wine and the best roads to see the amazing landscape in Saint-Emilion.
I strongly recommend this tour.

This tour was a blast, and I highly recommend it. My wife and I had a lot of fun. Our guide and ‘pilot’, Luc, was warm and friendly, had a great sense of humour, and told us some great stories along the way. We enjoyed visits to two Chateaux for tours and tastings, and riding through the vineyards on the motorcycle was fun. Ian
