Its a very relaxed and fun tour, we tasted authentic food and drinks like cheeses, bread, fruits, sweets and wine.

Great chance to sample Chartrons - Lovely to experience the atmosphere in Chartrons and sample some of the local produce. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the small number of people we had in the group (6) worked well. I liked the mix of food experience and local history / architecture. I would have liked to sample a few more evening / dinner tastes than we did and hence have less sweets / pastries but this would be the only change I'd propose.

The history of food and food trading in Bordeaux - Very interesting tour full of the history and origins of food. I feel there was but too much history though. We expected to have had more actual eating of food and wine. Perhaps this tour would be more suited to a morning tour.

Not worth the money - Unfortunately, not worth the money. This tour was from 4 to 7 p.m. I expected a few more evening/dinner food tastes of decent portions. The tastings were very tiny and not worth the money of the tour. We also booked the 'No Diet Food Tour' for the following day. The No Diet Tour was only $64 (verses $96 for this tour) I'd bet half the money paid on the No Diet tour was spent on food tastings; and I bet only about 10% for this tour. On the No Diet food tour we were stuffed at the end and probably had double tastings as this one. At the end of this tour, we didn't feel like we had eaten anything of substance. Additionally, our tour director got lost twice and we had to backtrack.
