Fantastic experience last week with Emmanuel on his Bordeaux "Sweets & Discoveries" tour. He's super knowledgeable and very friendly, he knows the history and culture of the city. It was a really lovely 2 hour walk with some delicious tastings along the way. I look forward to trying one of his wine tours outside the city next time. Highly recommended!

The tour was great. Lovely pastries and Emanuelle the guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Bordeaux. He walked at a brisk pace which was good - too slow can be painful. However, only tiny tastes of each food, and there was not one place to sit down and enjoy the food, have a rest and maybe use a loo - factors we have enjoyed in other foodie tours elsewhere
Manuel was very informative and brought us to parts of the city we would not have seen on our own. We also indulged in high quality treats. Lots of fun.
I offered this tour to my in-laws, they came back amazed! They LOVED it! Emanuel was their guide and he was amazing! He was like their private historian :) they loved hearing about the history of the city of Bordeaux.
This tour was amazing! The tour guide had to repeat everything in English and French as we had people from the US, Canada, and France. He was really knowledgeable about Bordeaux history and taught us so much. I loved learning all about the history and hearing all the stories even more than all the delicious treats!
Learning about the history of Bordeaux and walking thru the streets of beautifully preserved 18th century city
Interesting and friendly guide with excellent knowledge. Very enjoyable sweet treats on route and at a nice pace for a walk around the city.
Visite du centre de Bordeaux, des incontournables places et monuments du patrimoine historique, dégustations sucrées et succulentes, supportset documents pour étayerles explications..... La guide a été au top, qui nous a fait découvrir la ville, elle était à notre écoute., et allait à notre rythme Nous étions un groupe de 3 personnes.... c'était idéal. En conclusion : PARFAIT et merci à Ludmilla
Superbe expérience en bonne compagnie et bonne ambiance. Le guide est top. L’itinéraire est surprenant. Je recommande.
Nous étions très contents de pouvoir apprendre des anecdotes culturelles et éléments historiques sur Bordeaux, car nous étions déjà venus plusieurs fois dans cette ville mais sans jamais encore avoir effectué de visite guidée. Celle-ci fut vraiment un très bon moment, et le fait de pouvoir également, tout au long de la visite, découvrir plusieurs spécialités locales (pâtisseries, chocolats) est vraiment une très bonne idée.
Very pleasant guided tour of Bordeaux with gourmet breaks. The guide is very friendly, very cultured and he leads the group with a lot of kindness and humor.
For my birthday, my partner gave me this beautiful experience. A visit to Bordeaux with new taste stages and at the Top. Emmanuel received us with great kindness. We had very clear explanations for our questions and the information on several major monuments in Bordeaux was very detailed. Finally, the “Taste Stops” conquered us and go back. Again thank you for these moments and good continuity for this activity that I recommend Kiki and Chouchou
We highly recommend this Bordeaux visit which is very enriching both by its monuments and their history as by the different tastings of Bordeaux specialities. PS: The performance of the guide was perfect in both English and French. Bravo Emmanuel.
A great family tour of our city, Bordeaux! Even Bordeauxers will love it! A real mix of discoveries, as well as history, architecture and especially sweet specialties! A treat for the eyes and taste buds 😉 My husband being a stranger, Emmanuel is adorable and really took the time to translate the whole story to him! Thank you again for this beautiful exchange! We recommend without hesitation!
Great time in the company of Emmanuel! The visit was very informative, Emmanuel is a passionate and keen connoisseur of Bordeaux! He was able to captivate us! This is also thanks to the presence of the 4 sweet treats! Thank you very much!
Very interesting visit, super good specialities, special mention with nuts!! Very good discovery. I recommend
I had already traveled back in time with "Bordeaux 1492" - a visit rich in historical anecdotes with Emmanuel a few months ago. I loved (re)discovering Bordeaux with the gourmet tour during which we taste 4 typical sweet treats. A walk that mixes history, architecture and gastronomy, it's great! Thanks to Emmanuel for his good humor and his transmission of the history of Bordeaux, always with humor 🙂
What a pleasure to visit again with Emmanuel. The route is superb to discover the must-see monuments of Bordeaux and in addition sweet treats blend in. The two hours pass very quickly. The tour is fun and lively with plenty of historical anecdotes of course but also gourmet. Always a good time! When is a visit to Eleanor of Aquitaine? ☺️ See you soon for another visit (my husband wants to do it after my praises on this ride!)
A super pleasant visit to Bordeaux, a tour in the city during which I learned new stories and anecdotes while tasting excellent sweet specialties! Special mention at the first gourmet stop of the visit, a delight!!! Thank you to the guide for these beautiful discoveries.
