Adults only, no hotel drop off, and the sloping cobbled lanes ask for a moderate level of fitness. 4.66 from 1091 reviews at €95 per person. ## Overview Join this tour from Bordeaux to discover the beautiful medieval village of St Emilion. Start the tour with a visit and wine-tasting session in a grand cru estate of St Emilion or in a Carefully selected Winery of Pomerol. The village of St Emilion is named after a Breton monk from the eighth century whose followers started wine production in the area, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a beautiful place to spend a couple of hours.
