Lovely tour and knowledgeable guide who used to work in the wine industry. Visited two chateaux and had lovely wine tasting. Especially liked the wine and chocolate pairing! If the weather was less hot I would’ve liked to have strolled around the vineyards too but it was way too hot anyway.

Tour was loads of fun and informative. We were worried the wine tastings would be limited, but it ended up being a good amount. All questions were answered clearly and kindly by our host/driver. Visiting Château Margaux is a little random as you just stop in front of the property for a couple of minutes, but everything else was great.
