Reviews
My friend and I did the half day St Emilion tour and had such a great day in this beautiful region of Bordeaux!! Our guide Laetitia was really knowledgeable about the wines and the history of the area. She was fun and super friendly, and also really flexible with us and our schedule. We had a great time overall. Highly recommended!
We had an excellent all day tour with Theo. He was knowledgeable and passionate about D- Day and shared many stories about the soldiers who were there. The van was comfortable and timing relaxed, yet full of information. One minor suggestion for Mer Eglise is to let people know about the Airborne Museum if they want to walk through for first hour and then have a quick lunch. We highly recommend this tour and Theo.
Valentin was an excellent guide. He was very informative and we appreciated all of the info he provided.
