We had a very comfortable vito bus and managed to be within the estimated time despite some traffic delays. The guide Mirella was really friendly and fun to spend the afternoon with. She gave us context before each vineyard and explained a whole lot of details about the wine region and Bordeaux culture. We stopped at two vineyards and got a great tour on each with wine tastings of 4 wines. It was very interesting and were able to ask any questions and take pictures of whatever we liked.

The guide had a great personality and offered deep perspectives on the region. In some cases, he was instructing the assigned winery guide (and needfully so). He made it a fun activity for a group that did not know one another.
