Option 45 minutes

Itinerary: Quinconces > Place de la Bourse > Porte Cailhau > Saint Michel > Sainte Croix > Big Bell

Option 1h30

In twice as much time, we see twice as many things ;)

For this option, in addition to the basic itinerary, we will take you to the right bank (fun guaranteed!) and discover the Saint-André Cathedral and the small streets of the Saint-Pierre district.

Option 3:00

This ride includes tastings, yum!

This tour is to really take the time with your pilot to discover all of Bordeaux. Indeed, we are adding to the itinerary the Chartrons district, the walking tour of the very quirky Darwin ecosystem (15 minutes), a visit to the Capucins market with tasting of oysters or other products (30 minutes) and we let's finish with little sweet treats like canelés and Dunes Blanches.

Great way to see Bordeaux

Susan Metcalf 01/18/2025

We arrived late but that was mostly our fault. A link to the address to meet at on the confirmation email or a mobile number would be helpful. Alex was very helpful and accommodating when we did get there. He was very knowledgeable and friendky during the tour. A great and fun way to see Bordeaux, would go fir a longer trip in the summer months. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Great tour!

I would recommend this tour to first time Bordeaux visitors with a bit of adventure in them. Fun guides zipping us around the city and giving us a great overview of the highlights. Smiles all around. Try it! Great for young couples/ families/ and young of heart. You are on a side car motorcycle with your guide.

Wonderful experience

The tour was brilliant from start to finish ! The day we had booked initially was raining, but this was no problem & Retro Tours were happy to re-arrange for the next day (which was perfect weather). Arnaud, our guide was polite, friendly & really enthusiastic about his bike & showing us the sights. The tour was Interesting and Arnaud gave us some great information about the city, where to visit, eat and great cake shops !! I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants a fun way to see the city and get a personalized tour from a different perspective !!! Thank you Retro Tours (and of course Arnaud), we really enjoyed it !!!
