A Story Well Told with tasty treats and numerous surprises. Josh blended Bordeaux history and cuisine artfully.
What a fantastic morning wandering around Bordeaux market area! Had so many great tastings from pastries to cheese, meats and oysters with great wine too! Joshua was a great guide and very knowledgeable about Bordeaux and the food and wine from the region. Highly recommend this tour! Must do in Bordeaux!
Joshua is a fantastic tour guide and we had an absolutely lovely time. The tour was great fun and my husband and I learnt so much about the town and culture while tasting fab food. I highly recommend it!!
Matthieu of FoodLoversTours of Bordeaux was an exceptional , knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide. His choice of a variety of foods and local shops and stalls in the Capuchin Market was excellent. He provided knowledgeable information of the production of the foods from pastries, oysters, meats and cheeses and wine that reflected his love of French foods. This tour is aptly named as a Food Lovers tour and should not be missed . I will be looking to book his tours operating in other European cities as I am sure they would not disappoint based on this wonderful experience in Bordeaux.
Our tour leader Joshua was very attentive, knowledgeable, answered all our questions honestly - could NOT have asked for a better guide, ANYWHERE!
I cannot recommend this tour enough. Joshua made it the perfect blend of history, culture and food. He was equally knowledgeable as he was personable, and we were very pleased with the experience. Of all the tours we did in the 8 cities we visited during our trip, this was probably #1. 5 stars!
Joshua is an excellent tour guide. I knew this before the tour as this tour and he in particular were recommended to me by friends who were here in the fall.The experience did not disappoint!! I highly recommend this for the tastings and the education.
Joshua was outstanding, so knowledgable, unrushed, and adapted to the audience perfectly. Loved all the tasting experiences which were high quality - pastries, oysters, cheeses, charcuterie, wine and desert treat! Thank you!
Fantastic way to experience the beauty of Bordeaux through it's food and wine. Josh our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, personable and fun. Thoroughly recommend to anybody visiting Bordeaux!
Thank you so much for those kind words, come back to Bordeaux any time! Joshua
We absolutely recommend this tour. With Joshua we learned about the city, culture and food of Bordeaux. Having breakfast beforehand was a mistake as the tour included many foods to try. The market is vibrant, noisy and fascinating. With our guide, we learned much more about it than we would have by ourselves.
Thank you so much for coming, was a pleasure to host you and show you around the market!
