Excursion Bordeaux delicacies with kim tour at Bordeaux

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Experience the tantalising flavours and aromas of Bordeaux during this bespoke, half-day tasting excursion.

Bordeaux

Meet your guide, American-born, Bordeaux citizen Kim Freeman, at the pier. Kim fell in love with French cuisine, and has integrated the influences of French culture into her personal and professional life. Now a Bordeaux resident, she loves to share her passion for food and the French culture.

Personalised Tasting Tour

Head to the heart of the wine merchant district, Les Chartrons, across the picturesque rue Notre Dame, before stopping by a unique traditional bakery for a hot beverage and pastry tasting. Then, Kim will take you to the trendy Halles de Bacalan, a lively place, halfway between a food court and a market, where you will have the opportunity to taste some local salty delicacies and enjoy a glass of wine. This second stop will also be the opportunity for you to take the local Tramway, just like thousands of “Bordelais” do every day since 2003.
