We meet in the morning in Bordeaux for a day in one of France's winegrowing jewels. Head for the medieval city of Saint-Émilion, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You'll be able to stroll freely through the cobbled streets, discover the historic monuments, stop off at a wine store or sample the local specialties. The atmosphere is unique: calm, elegant and authentic.
After this medieval immersion, it's off to Domaine SABY, in the heart of the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellation. An opportunity to learn more about the region's grape varieties, winemaking methods, vineyard work... and, of course, to taste the estate's wines in magnificent surroundings.
At the end of the day, it's back to Bordeaux with some great discoveries and, why not, a bottle to take home!

The Saint-Émilion vineyard is one of the oldest in France. It has existed since Gallo-Roman times, and was recognized by UNESCO in 1999 for its exceptional viticultural heritage.
Located in Saint-Laurent-des-Combes, in the heart of the appellation, the estate you're about to visit has been family-run for several generations. Here you can discover the art of producing a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru.

The region's clay-limestone soils give the wines a finesse and ageing potential that are much sought-after the world over.

Our charters
At Erasmus Place, the journey begins as soon as you get on the bus. It's a friendly atmosphere, where people get to know each other, have a laugh and share music and tips.
Our buses are comfortable, air-conditioned and equipped with toilets, barring major exceptions. We want you to feel at ease, even during several hours of driving. To make sure everything goes smoothly, we also have a few simple rules: respect for everyone, no inappropriate behavior, no consumption of alcohol or banned substances on the bus.
For each trip, we select quality establishments, always with a minimum 2-star rating for hotels. Whether it's a hotel or a hostel, you can count on comfortable, clean and conveniently located accommodation.
Our hotels and hostels are always located in the city center, close to places of interest and local entertainment, so you can make the most of your stay without wasting time in transport. With a few exceptions.
Rooms are shared among friends, in a relaxed atmosphere, but we respect a simple rule: men stay with men, women with women. Rooms are divided into groups of 2, 3 or 4 people, depending on the configuration of the site. If you're traveling as a couple, it's possible to have a room for two, but only by prior arrangement.
We want you to feel comfortable, surrounded and safe throughout your stay.
Each Erasmus Place trip is supervised by one or more trained Tour Leaders, who are friendly and always available. Their role is to ensure that your stay is well organized, that the group is safe and that a friendly atmosphere prevails from departure to return. They welcome you, inform you, lead the trips, coordinate the different stages of the program and listen to you throughout the trip.
Our Tour Leaders are fluent in between two and five languages, including English, making it easy to communicate with all participants, whatever their nationality. They are not certified guides like those you find in museums, but they know perfectly well the destinations they visit, the instructions for the trip, and the good tips to share. They're there to accompany you, reassure you, answer your questions, deal with the unexpected and make sure you get the most out of your Erasmus experience.
Their aim is simple: to make sure you return home with your head full of memories... and the desire to go back (alone or with us!).
