“Amazing first full day in Paris with Sophie! Not only did we go to neighborhoods we likely wouldn’t go ourselves but learned a lot about French history. She also took us to some great spots for food throughout the day and gave us some cool recommendations for the rest of our stay in Paris. Highly recommend!!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 56 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $144

Spend about three hours exploring Bordeaux with an English-speaking food guide such as Margot, Anza, or Camille. Expect six to eight tastings, including canelé, Bouchon de Bordeaux, cheese, charcuterie, pastries, sweets, and Bordeaux wines, with most of the tour around the market and Old Town.

“They cancelled late the night before due to a sick guide however that was the 3 tour through Viator in a row where that excuse was given over our 4 days in Bordeaux . Recommend going direct with a tour agency vs using Viator. Very frustrating since everything was planned through viator for our short stay and everything was cancelled at the last minute”
