Best way to experience Montpellier! - This was such a fun way to explore and learn about the city! The guide is very friendly and an amazing storyteller (plus he has a great hat and cane). I'm a native English speaker (learning French) but went on a French-language tour, and he was very accommodating to make sure I could understand everything. On the tour, the group gets to vote on which place to visit next, which makes the experience interactive and memorable. Hearing legends is an excellent way to not only learn about the city and its history, but to get a feel for the culture. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montpellier. If you only have time to do one thing, this should be it!

A delicious taste of Montpellier - Fantastic tour that our family of four (two boys aged 15 and 11) enjoyed. Bunoit is very knowledgeable and explains things in a captivating manner. We were visiting from the San Francisco Bay Area and appreciated the narrative on the significant spots of Montpellier while walking around the main landmarks like the medical school, cathedral and other spots. He had some fascinating stories about the people that have called Montpellier home, including some famous ones (I won't give it away). Bunoit is a man of many talents and we completely enjoyed the tour. We stopped at a French patisserie and another bakery as well. His recommendation for lunch was great. All in all a can't miss experience if you visit Montpellier.
