One language only, please
Our bilingual guide delivered the information first in French to the French-speaking half of the group (more than half perhaps), then in English to us English-speakers. My husband and I understand enough French that we heard he was shortening his English version quite a bit, especially as the tour went on, which was frustrating for us. We could see him offering the info in French with enthusiasm and detail, then turning to us with a “I just was saying how X or Y.:.” One sentence to summarize for us after many sentences in French. I think he was tired by the second half of the 2-hour tour and it was a large group and that’s a lot of info to deliver in 2 languages. I get it. But it made us feel dismissed. I’d recommend offering a full English language tour as advertised though I realize the finances of it are better when combining 2 groups.

Do it for the View. Stay for the Museum!
The Porte Cailhua experience was lovely. The view is incredible and multiple floors of interactive exhibits, artifacts, stories, etc. definitely made Porte Cailhau a worthwhile experience. I have always wanted to go up into one of the gates in Bordeaux. And this experience certainly did not disappoint!

Very interesting visit even if it less complete than in the past
I enjoyed this visit and the competent guide very much, but I was disappointed that the programme has been changed. My husband and our son were able to visit the underground and the top of the building some years ago with a smaller group. This access is not possible any more...
Answer from Monsieur l'Office de Tourisme et des Congrès de Bordeaux Métropole
Dear Simone, we thank you for your feedback about the visit of the Grand-Théâtre. Actually, during this guided tour, we are limited to the areas to which we are granted access (it means :the foyer, the staircase, the Boireau lounge and a view of the auditorium from a glass-fronted box). Anyway, we are looking forward to welcoming you again. Best regards, Bordeaux Tourist Office teamP
