    Amazing food, amazing guide, amazing tour!

    Our food tour with Alexandra was exactly what we hoped it would be: getting to sample some of Bordeaux’s best bread, pastries, honey, chocolate, cheese, charcuterie and wine while learning a bit about the history of Bordeaux and its famous inhabitants. Alexandra selected a fantastic array of local shops and took into account our tastes when picking what food we’d sample. The final stop, at a wine cellar where we enjoyed a couple of glasses of local varietals along with the meat, cheese and honey she’d gathered along the way was the perfect way to end. We had enough food and drink that we didn’t need dinner that night as we were stuffed! Thank you, Alexandra, for such a great introduction to Bordeaux’s food scene!!

    A wonderful taste of Bordeaux

    What a wonderful tour! French culture, especially French food culture, is so rich. Having a guide like Alexandra was genuinely helpful and informative. The food was incredible, as expected, and I particularly enjoyed the mix of history and meeting local producers. Alexandra was a great guide! Warm, knowledgeable. And she able to englight us on everything French culture and food culture. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a good time with food, sightseeing, and great people.

    Such a fun and...

    Such a fun and informative food tour. Alex is a terrific guide and passionate about food and Bordeaux. The stops were a mix of sampling on the spot (including the canale and the dune blanched) and collecting food (meat cheese and bread) which we had later at the wine cave. I especially enjoyed seeing another part of town as we had already visited the markets. Great day and thoroughly recommend. Thanks Alex!

    Great walking food and wine tour

    Really interesting tour. Some history and facts, a few interesting and unusual tastings (honey for example) while we collect some bread, meat, cheese and chocolate to eat with our wine tasting! Alex was a great host and highly recommended.

    Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux cost?

    +

    Prices start at $137 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 122 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux?

    +

    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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux?

    +

    Around 43 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux 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 Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux?

    +

    Included: Famous local pastry; Regional wines in a local wine cellar; Honey Tastings; Local Cheese and charcuterie; and Gourmet Chocolates Tastings. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux?

    +

    We meet beside the Chaban Delmas Statue on Place Pey Berland in Bordeaux Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Traditional Gourmet Food & Wine Tour in Bordeaux 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.

    +
