It was brilliant. Mark, the Irish guide living in Bordeaux, was excellent, entertaining and super knowledgeable. Fabulous short tour and highly recommended.

We had a wonderful walking tour of Bordeaux with Tammi! She was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much interesting history, local insight, and hidden gems along the way. You could tell she truly knows Bordeaux inside and out. She navigated the city effortlessly and made getting around easy and enjoyable, which allowed us to relax and fully take in the experience. Tammi’s enthusiasm and expertise brought the city to life. We left feeling like we not only saw Bordeaux, but truly experienced it.

This was a wonderful way to see the city from a different point of view. The canales and one free drink were a great snack along the way. The guide was a bit hard to hear at times. We got some great photos from this tour.

Our tour was cancelled and we didn’t find out until 20 min after we were to begin. The guide never showed and when I called to get info was told it was cancelled. The independent tour told me they told Viator the day before but that info wasn’t passed on to me

Beautiful and knowledgeable guide. We heard the history of Bordeaux dating back to the Medieval times. Our guide, Pasquale has a book that helped us understand what the town looked like.

Raphaël was a wonderful tour guide. So incredibly knowledgeable about the area and very kind. He brought Bordeaux to life for us. Additionally, he went out of his way to recommend restaurants and food options for us as we have some allergies and were looking for help navigating that in the area. Highly recommend!
Elaine_M, Mar 2025

Very comprehensive historical and cultural tour of a beautiful Bordeaux cityscape! We felt like we walked the course of both the French Revolution, pilgrimages and a vibrant modernized city.
Karin_W, Nov 2024
Bordeaux is a fantastic city. We will come here again. Lila, our tour guide, shared her knowledge in a very personal way. Super friendly and knowledgeable. A pleasure to spend 3 hours with her.
Jeffrey_M, Nov 2024
We had a fantastic time with Marina as our guide. She was a great host for our first full day in Bordeaux. The tour provided a wonderful overview of the city and marina was eager to point out hidden gems. We learned a lot of the history of the city and now have a great foundation for exploring Bordeaux for the next week! Thanks Marina!
William_W, Oct 2024
This was a nice easy walking tour of Bordeaux! Lila was a great tour guide and gave us suggestions on where to eat and the best historical places to visit. I would highly recommend a tour like this in the first few days of your visit to get acquainted with the city quickly.
Bruce_L, Sep 2024
Rafael was delightful! It was like having a peaceful stroll with one of our sons. He accommodated our needs and was flexible. Can we stop at this cafe. Of course! Keep in mind, we were on a private tour.
John_A, Sep 2024
Our guide Emma was great, and projected such a positive attitude about “her” city. In 2 hours we hit numerous highlights and also learned quite a bit about the history as well the current state of the area. Highly recommend this tour to get started in your visit to an amazing French city.
Jean_J, Sep 2024
Our tour leader was so nice and extremely knowledgeable. We had wonderful time even though it was a rainy day. I highly recommend the tour!
Annemari_J, Sep 2024
Our guide was very nice-but the tour was just so so, we paid for a 3 hour tour and she thought it was a two hour tour so it was really just a summary.
Heidi_S, Aug 2024
Great walking tour with Indigo. We never felt rushed and we were able to make suggestions about what we valued seeing. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant.
Galyna_M, Jul 2024

Wonderful walking tour! Great way to get an overview of the city! Our guide was great and gave us lunch recommendations that were very good!
Guy_D, Jun 2024
A great tour guide and we saw a lot of interesting places. Our guide was very interesting and knowledgeable. Possibly three hours was a bit long and we should have chosen the two hour option as there was a lot of detail.
Marc_M, Jun 2024
Our guide, Guadalupe was just fantastic! Friendly, knowledgeable, very prepared, full of energy and showed a true love of her city. We couldn’t have asked for more.
