I didn't realize that the tour was only 1/2 guided. I thought we paid for the more expensive, longer tour. Everything was fine, our tour guide and driver was friendly and patient and nice. My only complaint was that the van ran out of gas and delayed our return by over an hour. If there's car problems, that's out of the tour driver's control, but to run out of gas? Hmm...she did apologize over and over. We did pay a lot of money for this transport and for the guided tour where I felt like we only got 1/2 of a guided tour and delayed our return with the van running out of gas. It was a good lesson for the tour guide/driver to learn, don't go by the gas gage..sometimes it's off. Make sure there's always 1/2 tank of gas in the car....no matter what. Don't risk it...especially for paying customers. This error was purely human error and could have been prevented. Just glad we had good weather while waiting off the freeway for the van to be towed. Would have been way cheaper to take a train.

We very much enjoyed our Haut Medoc chateaux and vineyard tour . Laetitia our guide was lively and informative . She is extremely knowledgeable about wine and really went the extra distance to answer our questions and show us interesting things . Our personalised tour of the Chateau Dauzac vineyard was one of the best wine tours we have done . We would certainly when returning to Bordeaux try to do a wine tour of another wine region with the same company . Rosemary and Stephen UK

We had an incredible day with our guide Theo. This was a present for my father’s birthday - he has been waiting to visit these sites for over 50 years. Theo made the trip incredibly enjoyable with his vast knowledge of all of the sites as well as background information and insider knowledge particularly in the American Cemetery and in the French Resistance’s work in Normandy which isn’t talked about enough. I can’t recommend this tour company and Theo more, 11/10 once in a lifetime experience. Thank you Theo!

What an amazing tour. Great communication from Ophorus Tours. Our guide Jerome was very friendly and knowledgeable and we had a group of 3 - so it was like a personalised tour. Visited 3 contrasting wineries and had lunch and free time in Riquewihr. We did not feel rushed at all and a good amount of time in Riquewihr. I researched the Alsace tours and would highly recommend this one. Great guide and small group

A great day out wine tasting
A great day tour of St Emilion and Pommerol vineyards. Expertly delivered by Helene to a group of 8 of us (three separate groups from different countries meeting for the first time) which ‘jelled’ very quickly . No rushed, good explanations and excellent wines. Highly recommended

We were the only two to...
We were the only two to sign up for the tour so basically got a private tour. Lou was very knowledgeable and fun. Omaha Beach is an amazing sight as well as the American Cemetery. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Wine Tour with Oscar!
I was visiting my daughter who is studying abroad in Nantes. If I was going to France, I was definitely going to Bordeaux! My sister, niece and two cousins traveled with me. We had an amazing trip overall, but a high point was our wine tour to St. Emilion. Oscar was a top notch wine guide and was so knowledgeable and accommodating. He was full of history of the region, wines, local cities, etc. He was outstanding and he absolutely made our tour the highlight of our trip!

Interesting and fun, great guide
We visit two wineries. In the first one the host was very warm and friendly, in the second one, Klipfel, the host was very knowledgeable of the Grand Cru areas and soils. Our tour guide Lea was very knowledgeable and friendly, and made sure everyone had a good time and tasted the type of wine they wanted.

Great small group tour
Great small group tour to two very different wineries. Guide was great as were the tastings at both locations. The stop in town for lunch on our own was a nice break and we had enough time to see the Royal Fortress. Highly recommended.

A great day out
We had a fantastic day out. Four of us shared the tour with another couple and it was a great experience. We visited three vineyards and got to taste many wines, each vineyard provided us with a lot of information on the wines. Our guide Jerome Georges was fabulous, he is very knowledgeable and friendly. A great day out.
