Welcome to Bordeaux, a splendid city nestled in the southwest of France, renowned for its rich historical heritage, vibrant culture and prestigious vineyards. To make your stay as memorable as possible, I offer you an unforgettable itinerary through the emblematic sites of our beautiful city.
Start your day by discovering the Pey Berland tower, just a 10-minute walk from Nid Cosy. Enjoy the 360° view offered by this famous tower over the city of Bordeaux. Then don't miss a visit to Saint-André Cathedral, which in the 12th century witnessed the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine. From queen of France to England, what a destiny!
Continue your day with a visit to the majestic Grand Théâtre de Bordeaux, a true gem of neoclassical architecture. Enjoy a theatrical performance or discover its sumptuous interiors on a guided tour.
Next, stroll to Place de la Bourse, a masterpiece of classical French architecture. Admire the perfect symmetry of this majestic square from the Water Mirror, the largest in the world, where you can walk barefoot on its refreshing tiles. A great place for spectacular photos and a unique sensory experience.
Continue your exploration along the Port de la Lune, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This historic port, with its crescent moon shape formed by the Garonne, is full of lively quays and remarkable buildings. Imagine the excitement of the days when Bordeaux was a thriving commercial center as you stroll along the quays and admire the boats.
For an immersive cultural experience, head to the Cité du Vin. Inaugurated in 2016, this modern museum dedicated to wine culture will seduce you with its interactive exhibitions, tastings and discoveries about wine traditions from around the world.
End your day with a visit to the Bassin des Lumières, the largest digital art center in the world, installed in the former Bordeaux submarine base. Be transported by exhibitions projected onto the walls and waters of the base, offering an immersive visual, auditory and sensory experience.
Your trip to Bordeaux would not be complete without tasting its delicious local gastronomy: discover regional specialties in the city's restaurants, bistros and markets. Don't miss trying the canelé, a delicious cake with a tender center and caramelized crust. Savor seafood, such as oysters from the Arcachon Basin, and accompany your meals with a world-renowned Bordeaux wine.
An incomparable culinary experience awaits you!
