About this activity
Saint-Émilion is even more beautiful from the saddle!
We meet in the heart of this UNESCO-listed village, where your guide fits you with a premium e-bike and tells you how centuries of craftsmanship shaped this unique wine landscape. Then we ride gently along quiet vineyard lanes, far from the traffic, past legendary names: Château Ausone, Angélus, La Dominique, Cheval Blanc and even Petrus, just across the border in Pomerol.
Halfway, we stop at a family-owned Grand Cru estate committed to sustainable winegrowing, for an intimate tasting with the people who make the wine, served with a Saint-Émilion macaron, the village speciality since the 17th century. Old stone walls, hand-tended plots and viewpoints you can't reach by car: about 4 hours of nature, wine and French elegance, in a small group of 10 guests max. Santé!

Getting there: Saint-Émilion is easy to reach from Bordeaux by car or by train (Saint-Émilion station, then a short walk up to the village). Please arrive 15 minutes before departure — we offer a 5-minute grace period, but tours leave on schedule to respect everyone's time. Unfortunately, late arrivals, missed departures, and last-minute cancellations cannot be refunded.
-
E-bikes for everyone: this tour is ridden on comfortable, high-end electric bikes. The assistance flattens the Saint-Émilion hills, so everyone keeps up and nobody struggles. Minimum age 16, as the tour includes a wine tasting (wine served to travelers aged 18+ only).
-
Weather: in case of heavy rain or dangerous conditions, the tour is cancelled. Light rain, showers or fog (common in spring and autumn) don't stop us: the tour goes ahead whenever conditions allow, so a light poncho is always a good idea.
-
A small team, a big passion: Monsieur Bacchus is a small, locally run company. Every tour is the result of thoughtful preparation to make your experience safe, personal, and unforgettable. By joining us, you're supporting local winegrowers and artisans and becoming part of the story of this region. If your guide made your day, a tip is always a lovely way to say thanks.
-
Route: your guide may adapt the itinerary depending on the weather, work in the vineyards or the group's pace. The famous châteaux are admired from the outside; the tasting takes place at our partner family estate. The highlights and the spirit of the tour stay the same.
