Everything you should know before you book
You don't have to leave the city to taste Bordeaux. Food tours walk you through the markets and bakeries for canelés — the city's caramelised rum-and-vanilla pastry — alongside cheese, charcuterie, and chocolate, with stops chosen by a local guide. They're a fast, sociable way to eat your way across the centre in a couple of hours.
Wine-and-cheese tastings and blind natural-wine sessions add the drinking side without a vineyard transfer. Guided tastings pair Bordeaux reds and whites with regional cheeses, while blind tastings turn it into a game — a relaxed, expert-led evening in the heart of town for travellers short on time.
Frequently asked questions
What food is Bordeaux known for?
The canelé — a small caramelised pastry flavoured with rum and vanilla — plus oysters from nearby Arcachon, regional cheeses, and of course Bordeaux wine. Food tours cover these across the old town.
Do I need to know about wine for a tasting?
Not at all. Guided wine-and-cheese and blind natural-wine sessions are led by experts who explain as you go, so beginners are very welcome.
Food tour or wine tasting?
A food tour is a walking, eating overview of the city's specialities; a tasting is a seated, focused session on wine and cheese. Pick the food tour for variety and the tasting for depth.
