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.

I really enjoyed the history presented in the tour. It was easy to book online. The tour guides concept of English was very hard to understand. Thankfully a small group number allowed for close proximity and a lot of deciphering.

Entertaining tour with interesting local details
David Hawthorne 10/11/2024
Our flamboyant tour guide was very entertaining and gave us lots of interesting information from his wealth of local knowledge. He was a great salesman for Bordeaux, however I would have expected to visit more of the historic area in the allotted time. I would recommend the tour as good value though.

Great intro to Bordeaux
Janice Baker 09/22/2024
We really enjoyed this tour-- a perfect intro to Bordeaux. The only concern is the audio system was quite staticky, so if we weren't right next to the guide, it was difficult to hear. That being said, we enjoyed the tour-- very interesting and fun.
