Galia, our tour guide, and her husband, Gregory, our chauffeur, made a superb team. Not only is she friendly and knowledgeable, she is also meticulous, organized and passionate about her work. It was our first trip to Bordeaux and they have given us lasting memories that we would be savoring for years to come.
Maria P.United States
Galia picked us up at our hotel and it was an immediate connections between her and my husband and me. She is amazing, very knowledgeable, friendly, easy to get along with and by lunch time, it felt like we were visiting with family rather than just a tour guide. Galia showed us the best chateau in the area and we had the pleasure of tasting some of the best wines of the regions. The entire day was magical! I cant recommend Galia enough.
Mitchell P.United States
We were so pleased to have Galia introduce us to the beauty of Medoc. Even though our cruise offered included excursions, we knew that experiencing Medoc with a skilled private guide and driver would be our best option. Galia arranged three fabulous tastings and recommended a beautiful restaurant for lunch where we enjoyed a delicious meal. This tour is a must if you are interested in thoroughly experiencing this wine region.
David T.United States
Galia and her partner showed us the beautiful region of Medoc. It was a nice relaxing day as though we were traveling with good friends to prestigious wineries. It was one of my favorite days of the vacation. Galia is knowledgeable about Bordeaux and the wine region. She speaks excellent English as well as many other languages. Gregory is an excellent driver who knows the area very well. Both are extremely professional and charming. I will go on another tour with these wonderful people on a next visit.
