Past Clients Testimonals
Ray BenteleThank you, thank you, thank you. Merci, merci, merci.
We have all returned to St. Louis; much wiser about Bordeaux. Each and every winery welcomed us in a most gracious way. Each was a different experience-something unique. The lunches were fantastic, gastronomical, well prepared and well served. In some instances the host and or owners dined with us. They were fun and enlightening in many ways. We all want to add a lot of praise about our driver, Mr. Gauthier. He was incredible in every way. If we can provide recommendations for your service or testimonials please just let us know. Our friends will hear a lot about our tour.
Doug & Lynn YaegerWe all had a great and memorable time
Full of experiences and stories which will only get better with time…like a good Bordeaux. I want to again add that Gautier was just the right person to make it all extra special….great guy with a great sense of humor Finally, thank YOU for making it all happen. Tres Bien!
Ronald FrommWhat an extraordinary experience we had.
Once again we have been touched by favorable divine intervention which allowed us to fully participate in what truly turned out to be a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks to you and your team.
Linda NitzelCellar tours lived up to and exceeded my expectations
For this wine tour to Bordeaux and we have high expectations when traveling. We drank amazing Grand Cru Classe wines and ate exquisite meals, stayed in beautiful Chateaus. There is no way, we could have done this without you !!!
Pamela BraunAbsolutely wonderful
Our driver, Raphael was just great. He took such good care of us, made sure everything was running smoothly for us, and gave us so much information about the Bordeaux region! We had relaxed, informative, and delicious tastings at the most wonderful chateau. There were lunches in the French countryside at impossibly beautiful restaurants with the most incredible food and wine. We finished each day with a guided tour of Boudreaux and St. Emilion with a very knowledgeable guide who knew the history and archeology of the area and had wonderful stories. We have toured with Cellar Tours previously and hope to do so again. Every tour has been unforgettable!
Maria ZoccoliIt was exceptional!
Well this was our third trip with Cellar Tours, and as true to form from the last two – it was exceptional! We went to Bordeaux and St. Emilion on a wine/food excursion and visited 7 wineries along the way. Not only were the wineries little gems set in the countryside, but the host’s attention to detail was impeccable. We tasted a great variety of wines which were selected with the utmost care – and they represented moderately priced wines as well as better vintages. We have come to learn that this is in no way by chance, but by design from Cellar Tours. They work very closely with the host Winery to ensure the tasting is first rate.There was a day where we had a chef cook us a special meal with a private butler at a beautiful chateau – followed by a tour of their winery with exceptional tastings. There was another day that we had a renowned blogger meet us at our hotel, shop the fresh air markets for our meal, and then he graciously welcomed us into his beautiful home where he cooked us a scrumptious meal.I highly recommend Cellar Tours if you are ready to take your “trip of a lifetime” as I am already thinking of our next excursion with them.
