Guided tour

Bordeaux walking tour

From 13€ / pers

Discover the historic city centre with a knowledgeable guide. This 2 hour guided walking tour includes some of the city’s most remarkable 18th century architecture, as well as the highlights of the UNESCO World Heritage area.

  • guided tour
  • old district
  • main sights

Discovering Bordeaux on foot is the best way to experience the city’s diversity. The ‘City of The Lumières’, drawn up with a compass by 18th century architects and town planners, is synonymous with harmony: hôtels particuliers, beautiful squares and avenues are spread all along this route that takes you through picturesque areas like Saint Rémi and Saint Pierre quarters.

Some of the winding streetshave not changed since the Middle Ages. “Blondstone” is present everywhere, including in the sculpted faces that sit atop the city centre doorways,the mascarons. These stand as remarkable examples of art and masonry.

It was hard to understand
Fernanda Candida 01/09/2025
I recently took part in a tour and, overall, my experience was mixed. The guide spoke English with a strong accent, which made it quite difficult to understand at times. Thankfully, he switched to Spanish, our native language, which made it somewhat easier to follow. However, I noticed that the information he provided in French was much more detailed and comprehensive compared to what he shared in English. At times, the English explanations were very brief or, in some cases, completely missing. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend this tour to someone who doesn’t speak French, as it’s really hard to grasp the full details of what’s being explained, which is the whole purpose of the tour. On the positive side, I do believe the guide was competent, but I think this is more of an issue with the organization. Offering a tour in a specific language should ensure that it’s understandable to all participants, as people are expected to absorb a lot of information in a short amount of time.
