So glad I chose this tour! Memorable!
Flavia_M, Dec 2024
This is THE way to go for people who are short on time but still want a great, personalized, memorable experience. I only had a couple of hours but felt like I did a lot. Alex was the best guide: attentive, courteous, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. I have to admit I was a bit apprehensive of going on a country-roads tour alone with an unknown person but felt extremely comfortable the entire time. With this tour, you get to drive through the fields, take side, scenic roads, stop for pictures wherever you want and feel catered to. The chateau we stopped at was also excellent. The guide was very knowledgeable and it was well worth the hour spent there.
A couple of notes to keep in mind:
1) the tour is for two guests. I was traveling alone so had to book 2x the amount.
2) Don’t forget sunglasses to protect your eyes from the wind. I forgot mind (but luckily Alex was ready with a spare pair. He seemed to always have a plan B if I needed.
Highly recommend

Wow Flavia! Thank you very much for this very detailed comment, it’s great.
For me too, the tour with you was very pleasant. Next time, I can show you another vineyard: Médoc, Blaye or Entre-deux-Mers
Fun in Bordeaux on a motorycle

Recently did the St. Emilion tour in a side-car with Retro Tour in Bordeaux. We were two couples traveling via a cruise ship. Our pilots Alex and Emmanuel picked us up promptly at the ship. Admittedly, as we are older couples, we had some reluctance with one of us riding on the back of the motorcyle. But I have to say, all took turns on the back and we had a blast! Our pilots were wonderful always checking to make sure we were safe and comfortable. They are great, experienced drivers. We toured St. Emilion, visited a winery for a tasting and toured on the bikes through a vineyard. I highly recommend this tour. All of us agree that this was one of the highlights of our trip. Try it - you will not be disappointed!

What an afternoon! Had a very special 4.5hrs with Alex and Emmanuel who were super friendly, informative and spoke perfect English. The bikes and sidecars look great and were a lot of fun, whilst the trip out to Saint Emilion afforded us wonderful views of the countryside and incorporated a wine tour at Couvent des where we got to sample some delightful wines.

Great experience! Beautiful town, stunning scenery. The ride was a lot of fun and Alex was a great driver/guide. Best part was driving through the fields, among the grape plants! Also, the chateaus we visited were beautiful, and the wine was great!
