      An interesting and fun trip into Bordeaux’s past. Said, our tour guide, did a wonderful job telling us about the legends of the city. Some were quite spooky! A perfect way to spend an evening in October.

      This was a wonderful tour that took us away from the usual tourist traps and gave us insight into what life and myth were for the occupants of Bordeaux over the last 1200 years. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who loves a good story, loves history, and is seeking a unique experience in Bordeaux.
