We truly enjoyed having Max showing us around Bordeaux. He was fun, shared lots of insights in a very fun and casual manner. He even told us about his favourite bakery which we all stopped to and even came back to. Merci Max.

Place de la Comédie & Esplanade

Montpellier’s lively heart

Montpellier Your Way: A Personalized 4-Hour Exploration

You might begin at the fountain and Opéra, where your host checks what excites you most. Some guests linger to hear stories of the square, while others head quickly toward tree-lined promenades to ease into the day.

L’Écusson’s Medieval Backstreets

Wander hidden alleys and courtyards

From the main square, your host could guide you through twisting streets and tucked-away courtyards. Some guests pause in a small plaza, others keep moving to enjoy the rhythm of daily life.

Saint-Pierre & the Old Faculty

History and Gothic drama

Your host might bring you to Saint-Pierre’s dramatic arches and the old Faculty courtyard nearby. Some guests linger on the history, others take in the setting quickly before following the flow toward newer neighborhoods.

Antigone or Local Market

A shift into modern life

Your host may guide you into Antigone’s bold architecture or, on market day, toward Marché des Arceaux. Some linger around, others take in the contrast between Montpellier’s layers of history and modern design.

Optional Close at Peyrou Promenade

Views to reflect and finish

You could end above the city with views over the rooftops, pausing at the Arc de Triomphe and water tower. Some guests linger for the panorama, while others finish quickly and continue their own day with tips from your host.

Your FAQs

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

Mich made thentour memorable by tailoring the experience to our tastes. We tried a variety of street food and she added a unique ramen place based on our discussion - we were happy she was able to pivot so easily. We enjoyed the history and the variety of food options.

Very professional, very interesting architecture of different types of buildings is also very interesting. We had a great time. We walked about 4 miles. We didn’t notice it was so good. when we got tired and we felt like stopping, we did no problem grabbed a soda or a glass of wine or a beer and then walk some more and stop again. My wife and I had a wonderful time thank you thank you . He went over and above.
