    Heli Juutinen 17, Oct 2023 The wine tour was incredible! Andrew, our tour guide, was informative, helpful, fun and told us a lot about the city and (and the wine-making process). He went above and beyond recommending us places to visit and answering all of our questions. Everything was super well organised and we truly enjoyed the experience! I would recommend this wine tour for anyone visiting Bordeaux

    Sfkack 01, Aug 2021 We did three tours with Karim Laveille from Ophorus—a city walking tour, a full day St. Emilion tour and a full day tour of the Medoc. Each experience was outstanding. We especially appreciated Karim’s
    knowledge and enthusiasm for the area. He was both relaxed and organized. Highly recommended.
