Bordeaux was a charming city, full of history, beautiful parks and very walkable. Many great restaurants, shops and friendly people. I loved everything about it.

Joy was absolutely the best. We have done two trips with her and each on was so unique. This was totally different from our trip to Italy. Every last detail was sooo perfect! Can’t recommend a better person than Joy.
