We had a great time with Aurelien on this walking food tour. The food and bar stops he took us too were amazing and the knowledge he shared on Bordeaux was awesome. It was a great way to get our bearings of the historic center too, and, leave with some epic restaurants and bar recommendations for the rest of our trip. We highly recommend going with Aurelien on his tour, you won't regret it and it's great to support small business.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It was a real pleasure to spend time with you and show you around Bordeaux. One of my favorite parts of being a guide is sharing local stories, hidden gems, and recommendations that visitors can continue to enjoy throughout their stay, so I'm especially happy to hear that was valuable to you. Thank you as well for your kind words about supporting a small local business—it truly means a lot. I wish you a fantastic rest of your trip ! - Aurélien, Délicieux Food Tours
