Saint-Emilion is a commune in the Gironde department in Aquitaine in south-western France. The medieval village of St-Emilion perches above vineyards renowned for producing full-bodied, deeply coloured red wines and is easily the most alluring of all the region's wine towns.
Saint-Emilion's history goes back to the prehistoric times and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with fascinating Romanesque churches and ruins stretching all along steep and narrow streets.

Outstanding Denise is a true professional. She planned our South American cruise down to the smallest detail. Her follow up in the planning process was superb. Her selection of shore excursions couldn’t have been better. Her attention to our budget was perfect as well. She is our Travel Planner for life!
