Reviews
Matt was excellent in all categories nothing could have been better. I would recommend his tour to everyone.
We spent a full day exploring St Emilion with Rodolphe, and it was a highlight of our trip. He's friendly from the moment you meet him, and his knowledge of the region, the wines and the vineyards made every stop interesting. He was also incredibly accommodating, adapting to our pace and preferences so the day never felt rushed or rigid. On top of all that, Rodolphe is genuinely funny. His jokes kept us laughing all day and made the experience even more enjoyable. I'd happily book with Oporus again and would recommend Rodolphe to anyone visiting the area.
Our wine tasting tour was great. Hugo was friendly, funny and extremely knowledgeable about wine and also the area. Saint Emilion was such a beautiful village to visit. So enjoyed our day😎
