Procedure

What is your wine tourism day like at Villenave-de-Rions?

Your arrival at Villenave-de-Rions with a chauffeur takes place in four steps: pickup at your address in Bordeaux, a roughly 50-minute drive along the right bank of the Garonne River and then through the hillsides, drop-off in the heart of the village, followed by a customized wine-tasting tour through the vineyards of the Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. Throughout the day, the driver remains at your exclusive disposal: your chauffeur handles the driving and takes you from one stop to the next— Rions (7 min), Cadillac (12 min), Langoiran (10 min) or the wineries dotted along the hillsides. You set the pace and choose the tastings; he handles the driving and parking at each property. The half-day (outbound journey + 3 hours on site) starts at 240 €; a full day starts at 415 € with Rions, in the Eco class: Sedan, Eco Van, and Mercedes Van at their respective class rates, upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ: private transfer from Bordeaux–Villenave-de-Rions

How much does a private transfer from Bordeaux to Villenave-de-Rions cost?

The price of a private chauffeur service from Bordeaux to Villenave-de-Rions depends on the package selected: the transfer from downtown Bordeaux to Villenave-de-Rions costs 76 € in the Eco class, 84 € in the Premium Sedan class, 92 € in Eco Van and 106 € in a Mercedes Van (one-way, daytime). Fixed fare provided in writing before the trip, including tolls and luggage—traffic jams or detours do not affect the fare.

How long does the trip from Bordeaux to Villenave-de-Rions take?

Approximately 50 minutes for 31 km, along the right bank of the Garonne and then along the hillside roads between Rions and Cadillac. Your driver allows for extra time to ensure you arrive at the agreed-upon time, regardless of traffic conditions on the way out of Bordeaux.

Do you offer airport pickup at Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport?

Yes. An airport transfer from BOD to Villenave-de-Rions starting at 83 €, with flight tracking and 40 minutes of free waiting time after landing (see our airport transfer page). The fare is higher when departing from downtown: the airport is west of Bordeaux and Villenave-de-Rions is southeast of it, on the other bank of the Garonne—so the trip crosses the entire metropolitan area.

Can you travel with luggage or cases of wine?

Yes. The Eco class can hold 2 suitcases and 2 carry-ons; the Sedan, 3 suitcases and 2 carry-ons; and the Vans, up to 7 suitcases. The cases of wine purchased directly from wineries are welcome: the driver will secure them in the trunk so they travel flat and won't break. Please let us know if you have unusually large items when you make your reservation, and we'll choose the right vehicle for you.

Do you offer child seats?

Yes. Infant seat or booster available on request: +15 € per item; please specify when making your reservation. This ensures that children travel safely and in compliance with safety regulations throughout the entire trip, including on small hillside roads.

Can you drop us off at the village or directly at a resort?

Both. The service is door-to-door: drop-off in the heart of Villenave-de-Rions, in front of your bed-and-breakfast, or directly at the entrance to a vineyard estate, depending on your itinerary. Simply provide the exact address when making your reservation. For the day package, the driver will then wait for you on-site at each stop—waiting time charged at the hourly rate for the Eco category. 55 €/h, Sedan 65 €/h, Eco Van 70 €/h, Mercedes Van 80 €/h.

Don't confuse: Villenave-de-Rions or Villenave-d'Ornon?

These are two different municipalities. Villenave-de-Rions (ZIP code 33550) is a wine-growing village in the Entre-deux-Mers hills, on the right bank of the Garonne, near Rions and Cadillac—that’s our destination here. Villenave-d'Ornon (33140) is a town in the southern suburbs of Bordeaux, on the left bank. Be sure to specify “Villenave-de-Rions” or its ZIP code when booking: your driver will enter the exact address, ensuring there are no mistakes.

How far in advance should I make a reservation?

24 to 48 hours are enough for a transfer or a standard day—quote confirmed within 30 minutes. Plan ahead for long weekends, the grape harvest, and peak season. For a van in July–August, allow 5 to 7 days. The booking system is available 24/7.

What payment methods do you accept?

Two options: online payment via a secure link (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay) or payment on board by cash or credit card. No advance payment required for trips departing from Bordeaux Métropole. Invoices are available by email upon request, in French or English.

What are the cancellation policies?

Free cancellation up to 12 hours before departure, via WhatsApp, phone, or email. Beyond that, the ride may be charged. A simple schedule change (delayed flight, tasting that runs long) can be handled in just a few minutes via text message.

What is the closest train station to Villenave-de-Rions?

Villenave-de-Rions does not have a train station in the village. For your travel dates, check with SNCF Connect and TER Nouvelle-Aquitaine for the available route and the final connection to your address. The private chauffeur service provides door-to-door transportation from Bordeaux.

How much does a Villenave-de-Rions wine-tasting tour to Rions or Cadillac cost?

The full-day Villenave-de-Rions + Rions tour (transport, visits, tastings, and 6 hours on site) starts at 415 € in Eco ; starting at 424 € with Cadillac and starting at 418 € with Langoiran. The half-day Villenave-de-Rions (solo) (outbound journey + 3 hours on site) starts at 240 €. Fixed fares guaranteed in writing; driver available all day.

What kind of vehicle should you choose for a group of 6 to 7 people?

The Eco Van (Peugeot Traveller, starting at 92 €) or the Mercedes Van (premium finishes, starting at 106 €): up to 7 passengers and 7 pieces of luggage. One vehicle for the entire group, shared cost, and no one behind the wheel—perfect for a day of wine tasting with friends in the vineyards.

Can we go on wine tastings at the wineries if no one wants to drive?

Yes, that's the number one selling point of the wine-tasting tour with a driver: Your driver remains sober, you can taste as much as you like at each winery, with no need to draw lots to determine who drives or keep track of how many glasses you’ve had. He’ll be waiting for you in front of the estate, load your purchases into the car, and drive you back to Bordeaux safely, day or night.
