“The walking tour on Monday 7th November morning was a huge disappointment. We only saw three or four of the major tourist attractions, and the tour did not cover the old city at all. If you are looking for an in-depth lecture/ commentary on the history and geography of Bordeaux and not a tour of the actual sites of interest, then this might be one for you. I am not sure how a walking tour can omit the monuments of the old city such as St Andre's cathedral: that was not made clear in the description. Many of the major tourist attractions of Bordeaux were not visited in the two…”

3-hour Bordeaux bakery walk with pastry tastings and local history, led by Nikesh, small group of 10, $68, great first-day option.
“Amazing tour! We were lucky and were the only ones on that day - so we basically got a private tour :-) Good mix of boulangeries and historic inputs. Even though it lasts 3 hours, we weren't tired by the end. We got to see a few quartiers that we wouldn't have visited otherwise and to try out bakeries as well as pastries/breds we maybe would have missed. We had a really good time. Highly recommend for anyone - foodie or non-foodie ;-)”
