      Karim was an amazing tour guide. He was energetic and engaging throughout. Very knowledgeable not only about wines but also history in general. He went out of his way to make the day special for us.

      On the way back instead of letting us sleep he got us playing a game, testing our ability to identify characteristics of the wine. We were very lucky to have Karim, he has a great job and one he does very well. Thanks for a great day.

      Bonjour Camille,

      Thank you so much for your e-mail. Yes, indeed we had fantastic time with Ugo. He took care of us (especially my mother who can't walk for long) like anything. The tours of the chateaus were also great, especially the one at St. Emilion.

      I shall recommend you to my friends and contacts. Do keep up the good work you are doing.

      Fantastic tour of St Emilion with Luigi. We took the Medoc tour in the morning and this one in the afternoon. It was a lot - especially with a 6 hour time difference from the States, but the tour was great. We visited on… Fantastic tour of St Emilion with Luigi. We took the Medoc tour in the morning and this one in the afternoon. It was a lot - especially with a 6 hour time difference from the States, but the tour was great. We visited one winery and walked through the town. Such an amazing city. Luigi knew everything and was an excellent guide. Highly recommend.
