“My friend and I signed up for this tour to Saint-Emilion and it was a spectacular experience! Saint Emilion is beautiful and scenic and what a way to experience it in a sidecar. It is truly unique. Alexandre, our guide was wonderful. He was knowledgable about the sites we visited. We also really enjoyed the winery we visited. Couple of recommendations: Dress in warm clothes - it can get quite chilly on the speedways. Be sure to wear big sunglasses to shield your face...or a scarf to fend off the bugs :)”

“Alex was just fantastic. Wonderful amusing tour. We (81 and 73) did the tour for the experience of a sidecar. My friend was very nervous about it and Alex made her feel so relaxed and safe. She had to be gently pushed to go on the seat behind the rider but ended up absolute loving it. This has been the top highlight of our Europe trip so far. Very highly recommend Alex. If you’re nervous - ask for him by name. Thank you so much Alex. Ann and Yvonne”

She was very knowledgeable about the region as well as all of the wine varietals, and the tastings were very enjoyable.”
