Completely wonderful tour and tour guide! Suzan showed us around the beautiful city and we were treated to the most delicious food!
Great morning walk through Bordeaux with stops for delicious pastries and bread. Our guide Suzan was informative and a pleasure to talk with. Very worthwhile experience.
The tour was simply wonderful; the guide is very polite and helpful, and the food is great. He is very knowledgeable about the city's history and explains everything thoroughly. I highly recommend it if you want to get to know the city and its bakeries.
Nikesh was amazing!!! We visited amazing, highly rated boulangeries while he shared a wealth of knowledge of the city’s history!! The walking pace was easy and was welcomed after sampling croissants, lemon tart, etc.
Very interesting way to see the city and enjoy bakery treats. Would have given higher ranking but had a hard time always understanding what our guide was saying. Did appreciate his efforts to make the tour include a large part of the city. Also, was very hot on the day. He bought us waters which was thoughtful, but maybe could have given us a couple more rest breaks in the shade.
Excellent, insightful tour of the history of Bordeaux, the integral part bread and bakeries play in the culture, with delicious tastings. The tour exceeded our expectations and was so much more than pastries!!we recommend this tour for brunch, walking tour and history!
Very informative guide! Very knowledgeable on the history of Bordeaux and the pastries of Bordeaux! Highly recommend this very good value three hour tour to anyone who’s passionate about pastries, and the history of Bordeaux!
Loved the tour. Our guide was fantastic. Very knowledgeable & gave us a great insight into Bordeaux. Includes a number of stops that most tourists would miss. The food (& coffee!) Was amazing. Would highly recommend.
This was a very fun and unique food tour of Bordeaux. Nikesh was extremely informative and chose with care unique and in some cases out of the way businesses for us to try. I enjoyed the history of each area as well.
We had a great morning on this tour. Joshua was very informative and the pastries were tres bien! The lemon tart was our favorite!
