What people are saying about Nouvelle-Aquitaine

This trip was amazing and I would highly recommend it to others. It was good fun riding the motorcycle and Alexandre was fantastic!!! He was super helpful and considerate. My husband is in a wheelchair but this didn't stop Alexandre to take the booking. He made it all possible which is amazing as we often face made obstacles that makes thing very inaccessible. It was a lot of fun. Thank you for a great day out!!!

Arlo was fun. He was very informative. We felt safe yet it was exciting. Highly recommend to seniors(I’m 76) who don’t want to walk the city

Arthur was very knowledgeable about Bordeaux being a true local of the area. The side car was comfortable and very fun! Thanks for the tour!

This was possibly one of the best things I have ever done. It was so fun riding in the car and seeing the wine vineyards.

Absolutely brilliant experience. Great guide, good fun and got to see parts of Bordeaux not on the tourist trail.
