    Knowledgeable and delicious

    The host was amazing. He is the owner/operator. But, he genuinely cared about each person. We learned a lot on the tour. It was not only about sampling the food and wine but also about where the wine was produced, why the wine came from each region, what made it special, why the food was special (award-winning), etc. We also got a tour of the city and what each section was noted for. The tour was relaxed, informative and delicious. This is a definite recommend.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful review! It means a lot to me that you noticed the care I put into making the experience about much more than simply tasting food and wine. Thank you for the wonderful recommendation—it was a real pleasure having you with me! — Aurélien, Délicieux Food Tours 😊

    Unique local experience

    Aurelien provided a unique experience through wine tasting and food pairing. We were exposed to foods and wines that may not be first of mind when a person thinks of Bordeaux (AKA white wine). The variety of foods and wines were excellent and would definitely recommend being a part of this tour!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I’m delighted you enjoyed discovering a side of Bordeaux that goes beyond the usual red wine clichés! 🍷 I’m thrilled you enjoyed the variety and truly appreciate your recommendation! — Aurélien, Délicieux Food Tours 🍷😊

    Fabulous

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a fabulous evening! Aurélien was an amazing guide with incredible knowledge of both Bordeaux and its wines. The food and wine were excellent, and we had such a lovely group of people which made the evening even more enjoyable. A really fun, relaxed experience and definitely one I would recommend.

    Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bordeaux.

    How much does Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier cost?

    +

    Prices start at $108 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bordeaux usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bordeaux is not rushed.

    Is Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 37 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bordeaux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier?

    +

    Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bordeaux can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bordeaux and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bordeaux within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Bordeaux?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bordeaux experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Saint-Emilion Electric Bike Day Tour with Wine Tastings & Lunch, Saint-Émilion Afternoon Tour - 2 Grand crus & French apéritif, Graves & Saint-Emilion Wine Tour | 3 Châteaux & Gourmet Picnic. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Bordeaux?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Bordeaux?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier?

    +

    Included: Visits of authentic, family-run businesses; 1 wine & cheese pairing workshop; Tastings of artisanal savory and sweet products (equivalent to a full meal); My personal Address Book to find the best restaurants in town; and Local wines paired with the food. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier?

    +

    Meet me directly in front of the fountain of the Monument aux Girondins, on the side facing the Tram B stop. I’ll be carrying an orange bag with “Food & Wine Tours” written on it. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Bordeaux Evening Food Tour with a sommelier if the weather is bad?

    +
