Excellent tour
We thoroughly enjoyed the food and wine tour with Aurelien who was very friendly and knowledgable. The perfectly crafted tour featured a varied selection of local family run businesses, offering an exclusive Bordeaux experience. The cost of the tour, inclusive of food and wine, was excellent value for money and the length of the visit just right. It equipped us with all we needed to know to continue exploring and making the most of our remaining time in Bordeaux. Highly recommended!! Thank you Aurelien.
Response from the operator: What a lovely review! 😊 I’m delighted you enjoyed discovering Bordeaux through its family-run businesses and that you felt the tour offered a real taste of local life. I’m especially happy you found it good value and came away with plenty of ideas for the rest of your stay. That’s exactly what I hope guests take away: a full stomach, new discoveries, and a few insider tips to keep exploring! Thank you for joining me and for the warm recommendation. It was a pleasure having you along! 🍷 — Aurélien, Délicieux Food Tours

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Bordeaux Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bordeaux.
How much does Bordeaux Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English) cost?
+
Prices start at $37 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 Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English) take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 18 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 Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English)?
+
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 Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bordeaux Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English)?
+
Around 6 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bordeaux Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English) 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 Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English)?
+
Included: 1 Glass of wine; 3 handcrafted sweet specialties (best canelé in town, a pastry and an award-winning wine c; 1 Local aperitif (non-alcoholic option for under-18s); My list of the best restaurants in town; and Historic guided tour of Bordeaux. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Bordeaux Walking Food Tour : History, Wine, Pastries (In English)?
+
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.
