We had a great morning...

Michelle_K, Sep 2023

We had a great morning with Clemence. She introduced us to Bordeaux & gave us a wonderful background on the city, culture & history. She was able to provide context to little things that would have gone unnoticed without her experience. It was a very nice walking tour.

Clemence is a good tour guide, she even prepared her own printing with pictures showing the differences and we enjoyed it so much with her explanations. She is also very accommodative to our request. Kudo to her!!

Beautiful Bordeaux!

Donald_P, Sep 2023

Clemence was our very excellent tour guide for 2 plus hours. Her English was fantastic and easily understood. She did a great job explaining the history of the many special sites of Bordeaux. We especially liked seeing the old stone walls under the floor of the retail store! Her tour gave us a real appreciation of the history of Bordeaux and its evolution over the years.

We highly recommend this tour and especially Rosie, our guide. Thank you for a great experience

Good family tour even with an 86 year old

Anna, Jul 2022

Our family of 10 thoroughly recommend the outstanding tour with Lucia. We gained so much knowledge monument history, culture, dining tips and snapshot of Bordeaux in a few hours. My 86 year old mom was able to join the entire time as frequent breaks were thoughtfully included. I only wish we booked this tour On first arrival, would’ve given us a perspective of Bordeaux neighborhoods from which we could plan the next several days. When you come out of a trip learning a ton it is a definite 👍.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you so much for choosing our tour. We always try to adapt to the needs of everyone. We are glad that you enjoyed the tour and your mother had a good time. Thanks once again. Cheers!
