Hi, I’m Fafa! What I love most about Bordeaux is its stunning architecture and the endless activities that make every day feel new and exciting. I enjoy exploring the city’s main shopping streets, bookstores, museums, and riverside walks, and I know the neighborhoods and surrounding areas like Saint-Émilion, Arcachon, Biscarrosse, and Lacanau very well. Having played in some of Bordeaux’s best theaters, I also love sharing the city’s cultural side, from vibrant performances to hidden gems. I know the best hotels, restaurants - both high-end and charming local spots - and I’m passionate about helping visitors experience the perfect mix of culture, cuisine, and adventure that Bordeaux has to offer.
I've lived in Bordeaux for 53 years
I speak English, French, Spanish, Italian and some Arabic, Portuguese

Check out some of our absolute favourite experiences across the world.
I used City Unscripted for a tour in Bordeaux in June '26. I did the 4 hour private tour on my first full day in Bordeaux with Fafa. I had never been to Bordeaux or to France. This was a solo trip and my first overseas trip. I booked the trip through my bank and because of that she was not able to contact me prior to know what I was interested in doing for the tour. Despite that, Fafa was amazing, she took me everywhere and I mean everywhere. The knowledge she had of Bordeaux was immense. She made me feel comfortable, it was like walking around with a friend. Having gone solo to France I'm glad I did a private tour because my French is not very good and she did the tour in English. Since I was solo, she helped me get photos of myself in front of a lot of different places. I feel like I wouldn't have gotten much out of a group tour because of the language barrier. I also wouldn't have gotten all the photos I did get. Because of her tour and the information she gave me I felt very comfortable navigating Bordeaux on my own the rest of the time I was there. I will definitely being using City Unscripted for any other places that I go. If you are traveling I would highly suggest using City Unscripted to learn about the city you are visiting. I would also suggest doing it on your first full day because it will help you get an understanding of the place you are visiting.

I love the old castle walls that surround the city and the lively mix of music, art, coffee, and food scenes that make Bordeaux so special. One of my favorite things is the people - students, families, and locals who bring charm and energy to every corner. I’m passionate about discovering new coffee shops, enjoying brunch in the city center, and exploring Saint Michel and Victoire, where I studied and found my favorite record shops and flea markets. Whether it’s jazz bars, art venues, or trendy eateries, I know the best spots to enjoy Bordeaux’s eclectic vibe.

What I love most about Bordeaux is wandering through its stunning architecture and charming old streets - it’s the kind of city where you can do everything on foot or by bike, which makes exploring a joy. I’m a big craft beer enthusiast (yes, a beer lover in the city of wine!) and I know all the best bars for trying local brews. You’ll often find me meeting friends for a drink or chasing down the newest vintage thrift shops - I’m a total vintage shopping addict. I know Bordeaux inside the boulevards like the back of my hand, from the street art of Darwin to the lively Bassin à flot near the Cité du Vin. If you’re up for discovering a side of Bordeaux that’s full of history, creativity, and hidden gems, I’d love to show you around!

I’m especially drawn to the elegant 18th-century buildings and the calm yet lively vibe of the city, where students, cafés, and history blend perfectly. I spend a lot of time in the Jardin Public or exploring museums like the CAPC and Musée des Beaux-Arts. From the vibrant streets of Saint-Michel to the hidden cafés of Saint-Pierre, I know Bordeaux’s neighborhoods inside out. Whether you’re into art, architecture, or just soaking up the atmosphere, I’d love to help you discover the soul of this incredible city.
