Best start to our visit to Bordeaux.

It was a very private tour- Just my wife and me. Sophia customized based on us. She even timed the path such that we were at the bell tower at the time it rang which happens only once a month.
An Authentic Bordeaux Experience
lilphilly, Dec 2024
Sophia's private tour of Bordeaux in mid-July was an absolute highlight of our 3-Day visit aboard Crystal Cruise lines to Bordeaux. Sophia reached out before our tour date and inquired about what we were interested in seeing. This led to a beautifully personalized and engaging experience while tasting delicious local treats along the way! Her deep dive into Bordeaux's history, combined with her passion for the city's contemporary culture created a truly unforgettable afternoon. Her ability to connect historical events with the city's present-day life was fascinating. Sophia's enthusiasm was infectious, making the tour feel like spending an afternoon with a knowledgeable friend! We would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Bordeaux. Thank you, Sophia!

4.9. Out of 5 Sophia did an excellent job! Personable and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the personal touches. She also let us try some foods and explore
Fantastic Tour of Bordeaux with Sophia
Byron_G, Dec 2024
Sophia was an excellent tour guide. She met us promptly and packed the next three hours with interesting stories of the history and culture of Bordeaux both past and present. We learned so much I wish we had a day or two more in Bordeaux to explore the area. She also stopped to let us sample the local delicacy canelé at an independent cafe, which was worth trying while in Bordeaux. I would highly recommend a walking tour of Bordeaux with Sophia!

Sophia is a French citizen, born and raised in the UK. Not only is she a top notch guide with very interesting stories, you can actually understand her English! Have no doubt. She is the best.
