Reviews for Ophorus

A picturesque day in Saint-Emilion

This experience was an incredible way to experience the French wine region of Saint-Emilion. We met our lovely group and highly-knowledgeable tour guide, Leatitia in the heart of Bordeaux, before venturing off together into the wine region. It was hard to believe such a gorgeous place existed only about an hour or so away from Bordeaux! During our journey, Leatitia kept us engaged with insightful information about Bordeaux and Saint-Emilion’s history and landscape. When in the region, we got to wander through the vines, gain insight into the wine production process in the territory as well as taste some gorgeous wines, with no shortage of spots to take some beautiful pictures. Following on, we spent a bit of time in the town of Saint Emilion, a UNESCO world heritage site (as of 1999) where approx. 2000 people reside. We also got to have a little sweet treat, enjoying some mouth-watering ice-cream before heading back. To end the day, we got to test our senses playing a little car game of trying to guess different aromas that could compliment or be infused into wines. Thank you Leatitia and the Orphorus team for such a wonderful experience we will remember for a long time!

Det var en fantastisk tur og Carlos var virkelig god til at fortælle om regionen, byerne, vinene og historien bag det hele. STOR ROS til ham! Nogle dejlige vine vi fik smagt - sjovt at prøve de samme typer vine fra to producenter og smage hvor stor forskel der kan være afhængig af terroir. Vil klart anbefale denne tur til alle der kan lide vin og ønsker at vide lidt mere om Alsace vine.

Great tour with great guide!

We had a great time on this tour visiting 3 wineries/chateaux and spending the afternoon in Saint-Émilion. The tour was 6 guest total and our guide Mirela was absolutely the best - so funny and she made it such a memorable trip. Highly recommend!

Very enjoyable family day with remarkable sights, history and joyous wine tasting

Thoroughly enjoyable day with a wonderful, friendly and experienced guide. We heard about many parts of history - just enough to be valuable but not too much to become boring. Wine tasting was a joyous experience

Rodolphe is an outstanding guide. His knowledge of growing grapes and winemaking is exceptional. He speaks excellent English and has the ability to explain everything from terroir, harvest, and making the wine in easily understood terminology. In addition, he is friendly and funny. We visited three chateaux, all family owned but very different in character, in addition to the village of St. Emilion. All in all, this was one of the best group tours which I had ever experienced.

Helene at Ophorus was amazing!

This was an excellent experience! Helene was a wonderful tour guide - charming, funny, extremely knowledgeable, and a great driver, too! We stopped at three vineyards for tours and tastings, and stopped at other sites briefly for quick talks from Helene and photos. The vineyard selection was good - one was excellent, one was very good, and one was average but had a great tour. I would highly recommend Ophorus tours and hope that if you go you get Helene behind the wheel!

Rodolph is very knowledgable and attentive. The tour is a great mix between the Chateaux. It‘s relaxed and we had enough time to take pictures of the famous chateaux and for lunch in Pouillac. We vistited Margraux, St. Esteph, St. Julien all the relevant places. Thanks for a great time in the vineyards.

Le Louvre préhistorique

Expérience chez l'homme préhistorique sympa. Nous avons eu un super guide (il est espagnol) et nous avons appris plein de choses grâce à lui. Par contre, la 2ème partie se fait avec un audio-guide et honnêtement c'est moins bien. La réplique de la grotte est adaptée pour les personnes à mobilité réduite. Elle est refaite à l'identique. C'est incroyable de découvrir qu'à cette époque des artistes existaient déjà.

Trevligt och enkelt

Rätt utflykt att ta efter några dagar i Colmar eller Strasbourg. Trevlig och kunnig guide. Något trångt i vanen. Generösa men något ostrukturerade provningar hos gästvänliga och stolta vinmakare, men utan guidade turer i vinkällaren. Lite väl dyr utflykt i förhållande till vad som erbjuds.
