Included
Up to 6 wine tastings across 2 wineries, French aperitif with cheese, lunch

Two winery visits, up to six tastings, a French aperitif with cheese and a full lunch, all packed into a half day. Pickup is in Bordeaux, either at your hotel or the tourist office, and the guide leads the whole outing in English. Short on time but still keen on the wine, the food and having someone else handle the driving? This one covers the lot and still returns you with your evening free.

What actually fills the afternoon at the wineries?

The day starts in Bordeaux, where the group gathers at your hotel or at the tourist office. From there you head out into the Saint-Emilion appellation, bound for the first of two estates. Every stop combines a guided walk around the property with time at the tasting counter, so you learn how the wine is made before you taste it.

Between the two visits you work through up to six tastings, enough to set one estate's style beside the other's and see the difference. A French aperitif with cheese splits the afternoon nicely. Lunch is included as well.

It all fits inside a half day, run in English, which keeps your evening back in Bordeaux clear. Free cancellation applies up to 24 hours ahead.

How much does the tour cost, and what's covered?

What's the price, and what does it buy?

Plan on $128.42 per person for the half-day food and wine outing. Small group, guided in English, with pickup from central Bordeaux or a meeting point near the tourist office. Included in the fare:

Cancellation is free up to 24 hours ahead. Bottles to take home are billed separately.

Which travelers does this half day suit best?

It suits anyone based in Bordeaux who wants a guided taste of the vines without renting a car. First-timers gain the most from the English commentary and the small-group format, and the aperitif, cheese and lunch make it an easy pick for travelers who want food with their wine rather than tastings alone. Rather cover the ground yourself? The half-day e-bike tour with wine and cheese runs a similar length at $129 per person. Couples wanting something quieter can consider the private sidecar half day, from $296.74 per group.

What to know first

What happens if I cancel this booking?

Yes. Free cancellation applies until 24 hours before the tour begins. After that, the listing's standard terms apply, so cancelling early costs you nothing if your schedule shifts.

What should I wear on this tour?

Comfortable shoes come first. Saint-Emilion's lanes are cobbled, and winery grounds can involve gravel tracks between rows of vines. A light layer handles cooler afternoons, and it never hurts to carry photo ID for the day.

Is this a private tour or shared?

It is shared. You join a small group of other travelers, with a guide leading the visits to the village and both estates.

Does one ticket cover one traveler?

The published price runs from $128.42 per person, covering the guided half day, the two winery visits and the tastings. Full detail on the food inclusions sits on the live booking page.
