Fluent in English, German, and Greek, I’m a natural storyteller with a deep love for history, art, wine, and culture. With over a decade of experience in guiding, I bring a rich perspective to Bordeaux’s past and present — from Roman Roots, through the Middle Ages, the Wine Business, the French Revolution, and up to Modern Life in Bordeaux. I’ve guided curious travellers through Bordeaux, Saint-Émilion, the Médoc, Sauternes, Poitiers, Lascaux, and Arcachon. Whether you’re drawn to medieval intrigue, ancient civilisations, the intricacies of the Bordeaux wine, or you're just looking for an authentic walk through this city, I’ll tailor the experience to match your interests and your pace. Expect insider tips on the best local spots — and plenty of good stories along the way. Let’s make history come alive — together!

Our walk will explore the monuments and sights off the beaten track in Bordeaux. We start at the elegant Allées de Tourny , a promenade capturing Bordeaux’s aristocratic past, where I will reveal the secrets of its Freemasonic connections seen in the Mascarons . We then pass the ancient Roman Forum , now the Place de la Comédie with the 18th-century Grand Théâtre . Bordeaux. Burdigala , was a Roman trade hub, and we'll discover the last standing Roman Guard Tower nearby. In the Saint-Pierre district, we'll visit La Grosse Cloche , a medieval belfry symbolizing the city's defensive past. A modern DIY store holds the remains of Medieval City Gates connected to La Grosse Cloche . We'll finish at the Porte Cailhau , the grand 15th-century entrance to Bordeaux, before strolling along the Garonne River to the iconic Place de la Bourse , where you'll learn of Bordeaux’s transformation during the Enlightenment.
