OVERVIEW

Spend hours of free time in Bordeaux, a liberating experience that will allow you to view the attractions that sound most appealing. On the drive inland, the guide will describe the points of interest and answer any questions you may have about Bordeaux, which lies along the Garonne River. That way, you can maximize your time in Old Town, which is considered so architecturally and culturally important that UNESCO declared it a World Heritage site. Along the way, you will catch a panoramic glimpse of La Cité du Vin, Bordeaux’s striking, modern museum designed to evoke the swirling of wine in a glass or the intricate patterns of a grapevine. Upon arriving at the magnificent Cathédral Saint André, your guide will lead you through nearby highlights including the Place du Palais and the Place de la Bourse. Afterward, you will have plenty of free time to wander the charming streets at your own pace.
