Take in the charming sights of St Émilion

Overlooking the Dordogne Valley, surrounded by vineyards, lies the charming medieval town of St Émilion. Spend the morning exploring this quintessential Bordeaux town, visiting the Monolithic Church and Ermitage Grotto where Émilion lived. A Benedictine hermit, his piety attracted a number of companions and he started a community on the site. The area is also famed for its fine Bordeaux wines, which you will have the opportunity to enjoy during wine tastings when you visit some of the local vineyards, such as Château Franc Mayne or Château La Tour du Pin Figeac.
