Why do our guests rave about our Bordeaux Wine Tours?

Our guests love tasting all five First Growths (here at Chateau Margaux)

So much more than “just tasting all five First Growths” (here at Chateau Margaux)

Surely they adore the Chateau-meals in venues not open to the public.

Of course they love tasting all five First Growths with fellow wine lovers, especially comparing well-aged wines wines like Chateau Margaux to Lafite Rothschild or Latour in our chateau dining room.

Discovering museums, gardens and historical monuments are highlights as well.

But there is more, so much more…

Personal, once-in-a-lifetime experience

What our guests rave the most about is their personal experience with us. And the great fun combined with behind-the-scenes insights. Or in their words: “all those things you include that we simply can’t buy, not for any money in the world!

A memorable and fun learning vacation

A memorable and fun learning vacation

There is a reason that our company is called the
Bordeaux Wine Experience, as this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will never forget.

You will experience Bordeaux bonded with a handful of like-minded wine lovers who want to understand and taste fine wines, eat amazing food and enjoy tales of the vines, life in France and the wit and wisdom of your dedicated tour-host.

Your host knows his wines and the Bordeaux area and he is very good at presenting his knowledge to any level of wine connoisseur.

He and his team have a way of telling a story that keeps you engaged and laughing the entire trip.

The adventure begins

Lunches you will never forget

Checking into your accommodation for the first night of your adventure, you will be greeted by your hosts who shows you to one of the handful of beautifully appointed rooms.

Somehow a glass of champagne gets slipped into your hand and the adventure begins.

The Bordeaux Wine Experience layer surprise upon surprise with such attention to detail that the phrase ‘exceeds your expectations’ begins to become inadequate.

We have spent many years becoming an integral part of the Bordeaux wine scene.

That’s how we can open doors to wine chateaus and adventures that would be impossible without having the right connections.

Not only is the tour informative and educational for a wine enthusiast or novice, it is tremendous fun.

Bordeaux wine lovers you will not leave disappointed.

New to wine and Bordeaux, you will leave knowledgeable.

To all, you will come to experience (there is that word again) what makes Bordeaux special – from the terroir to the techniques that each Chateau brings to their bottles; honed over centuries of art and craft.

You will come to experience a very special adventure that has as much to do with our vision as where this tour visits.

You soon realize that for our team this is not simply another job or another tour group.

This is their passion, and you will feel very fortunate to be a part of it.

As the tour progresses you will come to realize and appreciate your host’s vast knowledge of wines and wine making and the history of Bordeaux.

You will love his outstanding network of wine makers, amusing stories and of course the wine tastings.

Our expertise and our easygoing manner in which we share our extensive knowledge of Bordeaux and its wines are conveyed in a very charming and witty fashion – which is designed to please rather than intimidate.

As part of the tour group you are automatically beneficiary of our many years of hard work that featured visits to exceptional chateaux, and tastings of many superior Bordeaux vintages.

Behind the scenes we put a great deal of attention to detail. As a result everything will go very smoothly, and you will be made to feel very special.
