This was a great tour of...

5.00This was a great tour of the history and culture of Bordeaux. The bike tour takes you around several historical sites, and the guide gave plenty of great and entertaining insight. The bike ride is far from physically challenging, we moved at a slow pace and had plenty of time to look at the sites. There were options for the tour in English and French, there may be more as well but those were the two I saw. Highly recommend! Great to get a sense of Bordeaux before diving deeper into the specifics you personally found interesting

5.00This was by far the most fun, interesting and informative bike tour we’ve done around the world, and we’ve done quite a few. Michael, our guide was superb. The tour covered the left and right side of Bordeaux, provided some very interesting insights into the city’s history and current status and was delivered with evident knowledge, passion and a touch of humour. Our tour was intimate with just 6 of us and the care taken to ensure our safety was maintained, but our interest was never compromised. I can’t recommend this particular tour highly enough. You will love it!
Flavie was the best tour host!

5.00We had a great bike tour with Flavie! We were a group of 7 and she took us to visit all the main sites and districts of Bordeaux. She was very informative, fun and friendly. It was a great way to spend a sunny, Sunday morning in Bordeaux. We would definitely recommend Flavie to any other travellers looking for a similar experience. Thank you again! From the London girls :)
