Bordeaux all inclusive market tasting by Food Lover Tour｜France

Looking to get to know Bordeaux fast, learn some of its fascinating history, try incredible local food, and get all the insider insights for your stay from an experienced local guide?

This multi-stop tasting tour encompasses the three regional specialties of Bordeaux. Try an Artisanally crafted chocolatine and discover why the Bordelais give this classic French pastry a unique name. Next, stop at the city's covered market to learn about Bordeaux's industrial past and history as a colonial port. Enjoy fresh oysters paired with local wine at a market café, the same way local workers traditionally breakfasted.

The second half of the tour takes you on a walk through Bordeaux's medieval past. You'll visit the historic city gates, uncover Roman secrets, stop by the oldest church in the city, and try Bordeaux's most famous specialty: the canelé.

Throughout the tour, your experienced local guide will link these three dishes to the story of the city, using them to explain how Bordeaux developed and how it stands out from other destinations in France and Europe. Your guide will provide an overview of the city's main sights alongside a list of spots to discover after the tour. Food Lover Tour will also supply a guide to our top gastronomic picks for Bordeaux, plus recommendations on how to spend the perfect weekend in the wine capital of the world.

This tour is also available as a private experience, where your guide will take you on a deep dive into the region's famous wines, as well as a broader exploration of Southwestern gastronomy—including charcuterie from the Basque Country and a ""bistronomic"" lunch."
