The Perfect Three Days in Bordeaux
My partner and I booked this trip from Canada and it exceeded ALL our expectations. This was the perfect way to experience the best of Bordeaux! We did all the additions, and felt the schedule was perfectly timed and not overwhelming. The restaurants were top of the line, and all the excursions felt intimate and were curated excellently. We were the only ones signed up for our dates, but even if we weren't, the tour is self-drive, so it was private and at our pace.
One thing to note is that you do need your own car to travel to and from the different places. It was scenic, and easy to drive/navigate. We will absolutely be booking through Vino Trip again. What a find! Highly recommend.

Incredible Vinotrip stay
A top-notch, well-organized stay. The private tours were very interesting and enriching. The restaurants were very, very good. No false notes. We are very happy to have booked a stay with Vinotrip.
PS: be careful when you book the stay with drinks included in the restaurants all day long you may be merry on the road aha

A Gastro-Oenological Weekend
If you're looking for a weekend that combines a pleasant location with adorable hosts, if you're looking for good wines to taste with speakers capable of making you love the vine, its work and the work of wine enthusiasts, you can sign up for this tour with your eyes closed - it's got everything. Even if your stomach is put to the test, the combination of tasting and meal allows you to live these precious moments to the full.
A special comment for Annie and Laurent, who warmly welcome you into their home. And a special *** for the romantic meal served to the strains of Nat King Cole. Thank you, it was a great moment.

A magical stay
Hello, just to let you know that the holiday you chose was ...magical :-))
The wineries were superb
All the staff at each establishment were incredibly kind and extremely professional.
What can I say about our dinners and lunches?
Wonderful welcome and exquisite food at the Auberge St Jean, the owner and her chef introduce you to a gastronomy of extreme finesse, the dishes are as beautiful as they are good ... total availability and kindness.
At Château Siaurac we were also received like princes, with an excellent market menu and the baron coming into the living room to tell us not to forget to serve us the figs stuffed with foie gras in the fridge, or bringing us a delicious cheese and telling us not to forget to try this one too, it's delicious ... incredible generosity

Fabulous stay!
We would really like to thank you for the quality of the stay you organized for us.
Le Clos de la Barbanne is a precious address: the welcome, the attentions of our hosts, the advice and information, including on their professions, were all wonderful.
The Spa treatments, the visit to Château Siaurac (workshop, cellars and lunch in the park) and, last but not least, the hot-air balloon ride with an attentive and passionate winegrower pilot were rare and precious moments for us.
The only fly in the ointment was the meal at Clos Mirande, which took far too long!
Many thanks again.
