Q&A
Can I buy wine at the winery?
With the exception of a few very rare estates (1st growth wineries for instance), it is always possible to buy wine during our wine tours. Most wineries ship worldwide too! We strongly recommend shipping wine home in order to avoid carrying bottles along your travel(s).
Can we bring our luggage on the tour?
You can carry your luggage with you on request. It will depend on the size of the luggage and the space available in the van. But your chauffeur-guide will accompany you during your visits, so, any luggage or personal effects inside the vehicle will be left unattended. Bordeaux Wine Trails cannot be held liable in the event of theft or damage to your property.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Our minivan tours always go through unless there is imminent danger due to the weather conditions. In case of rain, we provide umbrellas to all our guests. Also, we try to keep track of the weather conditions a few days before the tour in case we need to reschedule it. But if due to unforeseen weather trouble the tour is cancelled you will receive a full refund.
