About this experience

Cheese, wine and baguettes are the "holy trinity" in France. Start your tour with a visit to one of the most unique boulangeries in the world. Using an oven built in 1765 under King Louis XV, you'll sample a number of local and regional specialties while learning about traditional French bread-making. Afterwards, you'll do a deep dive into the immense world of French cheese. Did you know there are seasons for cheese? Or why brie tastes better in France? We'll discuss the impact of aging, different animal milks, when to eat the rind and offer our professional guidance on how to select cheese on your own. Coupled with an extensive wine pairing, you'll also gain a solid understanding of French wine as well as fundamentals for pairing cheese and wine together. With a minimum of 8 cheeses (and more for larger groups), this tour often doubles as lunch for most people.

Great Experience

Alex was very entertaining. He did a good job engaging everyone and trying to meet the diverse needs of the group. One person was lactose intolerant & celiac, yet he was able to meet their needs! He is very knowledgeable and did a good job on the variety of cheezes, breads, sweets, and wines we tasted. There was plenty & we did not need to eat dinner after this.

Response from the operator: Dear Matt, thank you very much for writing two reviews - here and your very kind Google review : ) We are so grateful to have guests like you who appreciate what we do as well as want to support the growth of a small business. Alex is a great guide and I know that tour had some very specific dietary needs - yet he was able to rise to the challenge! It was a pleasure hosting you and wishing you all the best, Diane

Best food tour ever.

Our bread, cheese and wine tour was the highlight of our trip to Bordeaux. Our guides Diane and Vanessa enriched our knowledge of French food culture while sharing a fun morning. After visiting a number of different shops we culminated our tour in a wine shop where we paired the bread and cheese with a number of excellent wines. The tour was very personal and educational, I highly recommend this tour.

Response from the operator: Hello Emmett! Firstly, many thanks to you and Joan for taking TWO of our tours. The morning we spent with you both was such a blast. I particularly enjoy leading that tour because you get to see a "real" neighborhood away from the touristy areas as well as that amazing oven constructed in 1765. Vanessa, the newest member of our team and resident wine goddess, added so much to the experience. She has a wonderful way of talking about wine in a way that is fun and accessible and getting to try 5 or 6 exceptional wines along with a variety of cheeses is not a bad way to spend a few hours! Many thanks again for the kind words and wishing you safe travels. All the best, Diane

Fabulous and informative

I had the best time on this tour! We got to start at a bakery with an oven from the 1700s that we got to see close-up before taking a deep dive into the most enlightening and delicious cheese tasting I’ve ever done! The wines were expertly paired and Diane, our guide, created a wonderful vibe in the room that brought everyone on the tour together. I can’t recommend this tour enough!

Response from the operator: Dear Christina, thank you very much for your kind review! I'm delighted you enjoyed your tour -especially sampling the different Left Bank and Right Bank wines. It's a fun tour to lead, particularly with people like you who have a serious interest in wine. PS the Porte Chic is available in the US : ) All the best, Diane

Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie cost?

+

Prices start at $85 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 Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie 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 Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie?

+

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 Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie?

+

Around 1 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 Wine, Cheese and Boulangerie 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, "Bordeaux by bicycle: a 3-hour tour immersive experience". 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.
