Bordeaux’s Wine Country in a Day: A Private Shore Excursion

Hello, My name is Berit and I'm an experienced and passionate wine guide. I would be absolutely thrilled to share some of the highlights of my amazing region and help bringing the somewhat complicated Bordeaux wine industry "down to earth" so that, when you leave Bordeaux, you'll know which of the Bordeaux districts to look out for. Find out what it is that YOU like. And in the process, visit some of our beautiful, historical chateaux. . . In 2000, my family and I moved from Paris to Bordeaux, right in the core of the famous wine district. I started my time in Bordeaux as an English teacher in Public Education, which reflects my natural inclination for adapting and sharing knowledge. Meanwhile, most of my free time was spent on wine school and tastings! What an adventure! Wine very quickly became my passion. I knew that I had to work with wine - one way or another. I soon got a job in one of the prestigious wineries in Bordeaux and loved it from day one. Best job ever! There's so much going on in the local wine region, and I found the need to work in several chateaux before I felt like a Bordeaux wine expert. This experience lead to my current inspiring job as a local wine guide, that allows me to combine a number of my favourite things: communication, encounters, languages, wine. . . Nothing is more rewarding than to offer my clients an unforgettable and personal experience in Bordeaux. All you need is to give me your priorities and wishes before I start planning. EVERY tour is tailor-made. I'm really looking forward to hearing from you… - Wine and Spirit Education Trust - WSET 3 - Ecole du Vin, CIVB (Bordeaux Wine School): practical and technical certificates - First Aid Certificate (Red Cross) - Business and Life Coach, Mediation (Paris) I am a wine guide.
