What you'll do

There, we put on the helmets and I give you the instructions and the course of the half-day. We take a time for the photos of course !! And left for the adventure in sidecar for 4:00, direction the Medoc. We drive in Bordeaux but leave very quickly from the city to get in the middle of nature and we take small paths. We make a first stop for a visit / tasting of 45 minutes of a property that does not normally visit but which opens just for us :) Then we take the wine route through Macau and finally we arrive at Margaux. Here, we pass very beautiful castles for the most classified Grands Crus of 1855 and we drive through the vineyards. We stop when you want to take pictures and make a second visit / tasting (duration: 1:00) but this time a Grand Cru Classé. Finally, we take the road to Bordeaux. (The course may vary depending on your desires, availability of castles ...)
Other things to note
The experience is in a sidecar. We can accommodate two people. One is in the "basket" and the other behind the driver. You can change places at your leisure.

I'm full of energy and I will make you discover the region in a very friendly way. It's been more than a year since I traveled in sidecars of travelers through Bordeaux and all its vineyards and it is very rewarding. I discuss with the whole earth :) and I make them spend an unforgettable moment!
Where you'll be
We take the road of Bordeaux wines in the Médoc. We make two castles: an "authentic" castle and a Grand Cru classé (subject to availability: Château Dauzac, Château Kirwan, Château Lascombes ...) Our itinerary takes us to Margaux and its surroundings in the heart of vineyards and sumptuous estates.

Superbe experience !! Alexandre est tres sympa et fait en sorte que l'on passe un moment inoubliable à travers les vignes. La balade en side car nous a procuré de supers sensations. Et nous nous sommes sentis comme des vip lors des visites des chateaux! Nous vous le recommandons à 100%.

An absolute must. Such an intimate and authentic experience that connects you to the natural beauty of the area, the people behind the wines, and of course, the wine itself. Alexandre was warm, knowledgeable and a pleasure to have spent the day with.

Riding around Bordeaux's vineyards and small towns in a sidecar of a flashy-old-school bike with Alexandre is a magical experience and a must! Alexandre was very engaging and friendly, I strongly recommend to anyone interested in a unique way of exploring the Medoc area.

DEFINITELY BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE! Alexandre is extraordinarily engaging and the ride through Bordeaux up to Medoc is about twenty minutes and a lot of fun. Both chateaus that we visited offered different experiences but the owners were fun, friendly, and informative. The high point (among many) of the trip for us was driving through the vineyards - exhilarating and extra special. And then you get to enjoy the twenty-minute ride back to Bordeaux through the small villages, the winding roads, and back in to the city. If you want to see Bordeaux differently, this is the best way! And get ready for a lot of photos and videos that your friends and family will not believe!
