With a story behind each bite, you'll discover how centuries of global trade have shaped its unique cuisine.

Itinerary

1
Your first bite of the day is from a young baker, making bread and viennoiserie on site. See croissants being rolled and folded before you try one of France’s most beloved pastries here and learn how it made its way to Bordeaux.
2
One of Bordeaux’s must-see monuments in the historic old town and is one of the oldest belfries in France.
3
Next, you'll try Bordeaux’s emblematic canelé, a sweet treat with strong ties to the famous wine region. You'll visit a small, owner-operated patisserie that makes fresh canelés daily with natural ingredients.
4
Discover the medieval Cathedral Saint André and stop to marvel at the gold-topped tower of the flamboyant gothic jewel... Pey-Berland.
5
Weave through the charming streets, stopping at a typical café-brasserie just meters from the Bordeaux city hall. You'll be served a homemade plat du jour, the daily special, showcasing local ingredients and the chef's creativity.
6
Cheese! No food tour of France would be complete without it. Led by a specialist cheese monger, learn the differences in French terroir in a country that produces over 1200 cheeses!
7
Visit a Bordeaux institution that’s been producing artisanal chocolate since 1915. This is a third-generation family business and a must-visit in Bordeaux.
8
Bordeaux’s newest pâtisserie, named after the distinctive Atlantic coastline of the region. Invented in 2007, the pastry you’ll try here should be at the top of every must-eat list!
9
Finish up in a local wine bar run for a wine tasting led by two brothers with three wines from the Bordeaux region.
10
You'll say farewell to your guide and small group in this iconic park.
