We are offering two different itineraries in 2008. June's Bordeaux Wine Tour takes you to several leading estates at a relaxed pace, and includes a day of sightseeing at the oyster beds of the Arcachon Bay. On September's Bordeaux Wine Tour we pick up the pace a little and visit from 3 to 5 châteaux per day, along with similar cultural visits and the same great meals.

"I cannot thank you both enough for such a phenomenal experience this past week.  Each and every day was greater than the last and I will not soon forgot all the people, places, food, and wine that we all shared.  I was constantly amazed at both the region and the organization that you were responsible for. 

"It far exceeded my expectations and the amount of information gained I know will be extremely beneficial in not only my personal life, but professional life as well. I hope to see you soon and please keep me updated on future trips.  Thanks again for such a wonderful week."
