    Great trip, very knowledgeable and well organized. We biked a lot, learned more, and tasted the best wines. Sure it is a bit of money, but it is an incredible way to get out of St. Emilion and access some chateaux that perhaps you would never see. Actual wine drinking was kept to a reasonable level, for safety reasons, and then at the end we tasted 7 wines in a wine shop in St. Emilion buying several of those for dinner that evening. Theo, our guide was GREAT! Can't recommend this excursion enough!

    Saint Emilion… off the charts!

    Jennifer_R, Apr 2026
    We are in Bordeaux on a Viking cruise, but we think that this event will probably be the highlight of our week. It was absolutely incredible, not only in the scenery, but in our leader, Vincent and his knowledge of Saint Emilion and of course the wine, which was superb.

    The guide was very sympathetic, friendly, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. They shared interesting facts, answered all our questions with a smile, and created a welcoming atmosphere throughout. Highly recommended! Only problem, the bike one of the bikes had just one brake....we ask to give us a another one in an other stop, but the bike never arrived. One of us was far behind because of this.

    Recommend!

    Really fun your! Highly recommend. It would be enhanced if guide would share history/info on area that we were biking through and a little information on biking surface during the tour.

    Wine + electric bike = 👏

    Wow what can I say! An absolutely stunning day out! I was sceptical of the price v the experience. But this tour is worth every penny. The experience, the knowledge (from our guide) and the lunch were unreal. 100% recommend

    Perfect winery tour

    I did the tour with my cousin and there were 6 total people on the tour. We had the BEST time! Our tour guide and the Rustic Vines staff were excellent. So kind and helpful both over message and in person. I would 100% do this exact tour again for the experience and the people. Thank you!

    Very good experience...

    Lovely experience through the scenic Saint-Émilion

    Daniel_R, May 2023
    Very enjoyable, relaxing, and informative tour. The bicycle route is very scenic. The wine makers at the chateaus were so friendly and passionate, and we learnt a lot about what goes into making a great red wine.

    Vincent was the best...

    Vincent was the best guide and was so caring when my husband fell off his bike, it was a beautiful day, thankyou so much. Cheers Shaz

    Highlight in Bordeaux!

    We had the best time on this tour. Electric bikes were such a nice addition, the countryside was so beautiful and it hardly felt like any exercise at all. Sarah was a wonderful guide, she was very fun and informative as she told us about different wines as we cycled past lots of vineyards and she prepared the most wonderful afternoon picnic for us. Plus the wine was fantastic! Would definitely recommend - do the tour!!!

    Experiencia top en Saint Emilion!
