About this experience

Travelers will enjoy a private ride from Bordeaux to the village of Saint‑Émilion, experiencing the scenic beauty of the Entre‑deux‑Mers vineyards along the way. The journey includes a photo stop at a local château, where local winemaking can be glimpsed (tastings available upon request, not included). Upon reaching Saint‑Émilion, participants have free time to explore the medieval village, which features Romanesque architecture, boutiques, and views of the vineyards. Wine tastings at nearby estates can be arranged in advance with the driver. The return trip to Bordeaux will follow relaxing countryside roads. Note that wine tastings are optional and need to be requested beforehand, and they are not included in the ride price.
