Hello, my name is Hubert and Bordeaux is my hometown. I have been an independent tour guide for the last 9 years. I graduated Bordeaux university with two Masters: one in Roman History with a special focus on Bordeaux and its region, and another one in Journalism. I worked as a journalist for 8 years in Paris reporting for a television channel. Thanks to this great experience, I have travelled extensively all over the world and developed a deep appreciation for other cultures. After living in Paris for several years, I decided to go back to my first two loves: Bordeaux and History. I am now a full-time tour guide in Bordeaux, the Bay of Arcachon, and St Emilion. My roots are in Bordeaux and I take great pleasure in sharing this city I love so much. I know each street and alley, each statue, each corner. They all have a story I am eager to tell. My tours are unique and customized to the needs and interests of my audience. It is really important to me that you feel comfortable and engaged. I am energetic and bring my stories to life by communicating my passion. I like making connections between Bordeaux, the French history, and the country of my guests. And I always do so with humor. My one and only goal is to offer a unique and unforgettable experience. My deepest joy is to hear my guests at the end of a tour saying « I have fallen in love with your city ». And I promise you will ! Official guide card Master's degree in journalism Master's degree in Bordeaux Roman History Wine set level 2

Join me on a 3-hour discovery tour of Bordeaux, the city close to my heart, where I was born and grew up. You will discover the Bordeaux of the Middle Ages with its majestic doors: the Big Bell and the Gate Cailhau and of course the Cathedral St Andrew. You will learn about the Bordeaux of the 18th century, that Paris tried to imitate during the 100 years: Its Grand Theater, its Place de la Bourse, the alignment of its facade maritime. You will hear about all the key historical moments during our tour. As I am a native guide, I will also show you some of the hidden jewels tucked into the nooks and crannies of the city: the church turned into a cinema or the plant wall.
