    Excellent tour with fabulous guide.

    Fabulous tour. Our guide Alexandra was excellent. Very knowledgeable about food and history of Bordeaux and extremely enthusiastic. We had a great time and all three of us thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Highly recommend Alexandra as a guide.

    Reneged on promise

    My wife and I were excited for this tour. We arrived early but no one showed up. Apparently the guide was in a bike accident on the way over. Eventually we got it straightened out, although we were left without a tour. Original Food Tours refunded our money but promised a free tour for the inconvenience, that we could have used the next week in Spain. They never came though. Then upon our return I have contacted them 4 times, once they asked for more information but have since gone silent. We lost an afternoon during our trip, which they could have made up for but apparently just made the offer to placate us. Unacceptable to have told us multiple times they would provide a credit, then renege on coming through. Can't trust them and don't want to give business to people who operate like that.

    Bordeaux food tour

    Wonderful tour! We loved trying all of the local delicacies and hearing the history of Bordeaux. Our guide was amazing and the day just perfect as we ducked in and out of small shops on our tour around Bordeaux. My wife is a vegetarian and had no problem as there was just one stop focused on meat. I would not recommend this tour if you are looking to taste great wine (many other better options for that) but for the tour and food well worth the time and money.

    Luigi our guide was very...

    Luigi our guide was very pleasant. We enjoyed our time specifically with him. It was an expensive tour assumedly due to the small group, but there should be at least two wine tastings and the only chateau we went to was mediocre at best. The tour of the town and church was good. We enjoyed the one cookie and the scent game on the drive back was amusing. The wine caves was also interesting. Maybe some tastings there would have enhanced the trip.

    Bordeaux Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Bordeaux Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting cost?

    +

    Prices start at $143 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 Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 10 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 Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting?

    +

    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 Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Bordeaux Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting?

    +

    Around 4 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Bordeaux Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting 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 Sweet & Savory Food Tour with Wine Tasting?

    +
