UNESCO World Heritage-listed Saint-Émilion is a French natural landscape worth visiting with full panoramic views of fascinating Romanesque churches and ruins lined along steep and narrow streets. Named after a traveling priest, the charming village is known for its vigorous vineyards blooming since the 2nd century. On this tour, you'll discover France's rich winery that elaborates complex Merlot-based wines, including a visit to a winery. Learn about the culture of fine wines, including a comprehensive history of the domain and ends with a commentary tasting session of the Chateau wines. Afterwards, enjoy a relaxing journey through Saint Emilion finally, where it has preserved most of its 13th century-style monuments, mystic landmarks such as the underground monolithic church. Hear stories from your well-informed guide about the village's interesting stories and myths such as the Templar Knights, 100 Years' War, French Revolution, or the 2nd World War. The tour ends exiting the village for some quality leisure time around the area before returning to Bordeaux.
