Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

The bon vivant is in for a delightful full-day tour traveling roundtrip from the charming port city of Le Verdon. Meet your driver and guide at the pier and set off for a comprehensive wine and food lover's escape. Travel inland to the Médoc Wine Region for winetasting at a fairy-tale chateau renowned for legendary vintages like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and more. Continuing to the monumental city of Bordeaux, you'll get a brief introduction to this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The lovingly-preserved collection of superb 18th century neo-classical architecture is worth the trip alone. Take it all in on your way to lunch at a renowned French restaurant followed by time on your own to browse the shops along the pedestrian only Rue Saint-Catherine.
