We came to Bordeaux for part of our honeymoon and took the First Growth Bordeaux tour. SmoothRed worked with us to curate a trip based on our desires. The 8 Chateaux we visited, the 3 delicious lunches, and the hotel were wonderful, but what set the trip apart was our guide Luigi. Luigi is a trained sommelier with an encyclepedic knowledge of wine, food, French history, and many other things. He came with us on many of the wiine tours and would supplement the tour with his own knowledge, and also ask illuminating questions. During our drives through the French countryside Luigi educated us, made us laugh, and engaged us in deep and meaningful conversations. It was very sad when he dropped us off the last time because I consider him not only a wine and culture expert, but a friend.
