Bordeaux is the wine capital of the world. Its classified vineyards, iconic châteaux, and prestigious appellations attract visitors from all over the globe. But to fully enjoy a day of tasting, you need to be able to drink without worrying about driving. That's exactly what BordeauxRide offers.
Why take a wine tour with a private driver?
The answer is simple: to taste freely. A day in the vineyards of Médoc or Saint-Émilion involves several cellar visits and as many tastings. With a dedicated private driver, you can enjoy every glass without any constraints—no designated driver, no stress about getting back, no parking to manage.
Which vineyards to visit around Bordeaux?
There are many options depending on your tastes and budget. Médoc with its classified châteaux—Margaux, Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe—for lovers of grand cru wines. Saint-Émilion and its medieval streets for both a wine and cultural experience. Pomerol for exceptional Merlot lovers. Graves and Sauternes for white and sweet wines. Entre-deux-Mers for a more affordable and authentic discovery.
How to organize your wine tour with BordeauxRide?
Two options: let us create your itinerary according to your preferences, or bring your own list of châteaux to visit. We adapt to your pace—half-day or full-day, departure from Bordeaux or your hotel. For groups, the Mercedes V-Class van accommodates up to 8 people.
Is the service available in English?
Yes. BordeauxRide offers a multilingual service—French, English, Spanish. Ideal for international visitors or companies wishing to host foreign delegations in the Bordeaux vineyards.
When to book your wine tour?
Spring and autumn are the ideal seasons to visit the Bordeaux vineyards. During the Bordeaux Wine Festival, demand skyrockets—book several weeks in advance. Outside of peak periods, a few days are sufficient.
