What to expect
You'll meet in Bordeaux and ride a climate-controlled minivan to Saint-Émilion, where your guide leads a walking introduction to the historic village. Then it's onto e-bikes—even hilly sections feel manageable thanks to the motor assist. You'll cycle to your first château for a guided walk through its vineyards and cellars, followed by lunch at a prestigious estate with wine education woven in. The afternoon ride weaves past some of Bordeaux's most famous names before stopping at a family-run producer for a final tasting. The pace is leisurely; you're not racing, just soaking in the landscape.
