Elope to Bordeaux

When you arrive in Bordeaux, it doesn't take long before your senses are saturated with the grape that makes this region of France so special. The local countryside is awash with vineyards anointed by splendid chateaux and easily accessible on an excursion from the city of Bordeaux. It is a tough choice though choosing between the many tours available, but my recommendation would be the Saint Emilion ‘exceptional heritage and wines tour’ which departs Bordeaux on a Saturday; what could beat such divine wine in a setting rich in heritage and culture. The city of Bordeaux - with its World heritage status - has plenty to offer the visitor with its combination of classical and neoclassical architecture, museums, galleries, and of course fine dining; it is a city which is easy to explore and perfect for a short spring break.
