Description

Explore the historic heart of Bordeaux on this guided tour combining heritage, architecture, secrets and local cuisine. In small groups of up to 10 people, enjoy an intimate and authentic experience away from the mass tourist trail. Our tour begins at the Marché de Lerme, a place steeped in history in the heart of the Saint-Seurin district, before passing through the Jardin Public and then heading onto Rue Notre-Dame, an iconic thoroughfare in the Chartrons district, known for its antique shops and 18th-century façades that bear witness to the golden age of Bordeaux's commercial activity. We will then pass by Place des Quinconces and Place de la Bourse before heading into the city center. Rue de la Vache holds a surprising anecdote: its name, one of the most picturesque in the city, conceals a secret that your guide will be happy to reveal to you. We will then pass by the Pharmacie François, a true architectural curiosity whose listed interior decor is an overlooked gem of Bordeaux's heritage. Next, we will visit the Church of Sainte-Eulalie, one of the oldest religious buildings in Bordeaux, a silent witness to more than seven centuries of history. Your guide will immerse you in the stories that have shaped this popular neighborhood, once bustling with merchants and artisans. The tour ends on Rue Malbec, in homage to the grape variety that has made Bordeaux world-famous, for a gourmet finale worthy of the journey. An ideal experience for lovers of history, culture and gourmet delights, offered in French.
