About this activity

We don't believe in "cookie-cutter" experiences and neither should you! We provide the most personalized tours possible, meaning every tour we give is never the same. With the exception of a few must-try foods, the rest is built around YOU and what you're curious about tasting.

Groups are kept small and led by an incredibly knowledgeable guide. Did you know baguettes are some of the worst bread in France and you should be asking for something else? Did you know there are seasons for cheese? Would you like to have someone explain the regions of French wine? Our guides can do this because they are former chefs, food writers, and wine experts - not a student who has memorized a script.

You'll be strolling through Old Bordeaux, with its magnificent medieval architecture and cobblestone streets, sampling the best Bordeaux has to offer. We have selected only the highest quality shops to showcase and portion sizes are generous.

What's included

✓Sampling the best shops in Bordeaux: an artisanal bakery, butcher, cheese, cannele, and wine shop
✓Alcoholic Beverages
✓Generous portions of wine, cheese, charcuterie, and other tasting samples are included
✓Our unique format: enjoy a grand finale + pairing at a wine cellar/shop the second half of the tour
✓Gluten free clients need to alert us in advance
✓A personalized tour: every tour is different because it is based on the foods YOU are curious about
