About this tour
Explore Saint-Émilion's celebrated vineyards on electric bike over eight to nine hours, combining winery visits with countryside riding and a village walking tour. You'll pedal through quiet lanes connecting two châteaux for tastings, refuel with a picnic lunch among the vines, then wander the medieval streets and viewpoints of this UNESCO-listed village before returning to Bordeaux. An e-bike handles the terrain; you supply the enthusiasm.

What to expect
You'll meet your guide and collect your e-bike, then head into rolling vineyard country via quiet roads. The first château offers a tour and wine tasting, followed by a second property with more wines. Mid-day, you'll eat a prepared lunch outdoors, likely surrounded by vines. The afternoon shifts to foot traffic: you'll walk Saint-Émilion's cobbled lanes, see stone monuments and fortifications, pause at scenic overlooks, then drive back to Bordeaux. Expect modest exertion on the bike and a leisurely village stroll.
