Description

Visit Bordeaux by Bike

The course :

Join us in the heart of the historic center of Bordeaux at the charming Place Raymond Colom, the ideal meeting point to start this magnificent bike ride.

On the agenda: Discovering Bordeaux together in a convivial atmosphere, lots of smiles and well-being.

Once equiped, ready for the adventure ahead, we will make our way towards the oldest door of Bordeaux, the Grosse Cloche (also known as the “Big Bell”) dating from the 13th century. Then we shall cross the Saint-Michel district, famous for its local market before quickly reaching the magnificent Pont de Pierre bridge to cross the Garonne river. This trajectory offers us a unique view of the “Port of the Moon” and its majestic facade dating from the 18th century. This will be the perfect moment to share with you the history of Bordeaux over the centuries.

We will stroll along the Parc des Angéliques (“Angelic Park”) and across the Garonne river via the impressive Jacques Chaban-Delmas Bridge to explore some of the city’s most important sites. We will discover the Chartrons district, the historical heart of the wine trade in Bordeaux, which is famous for its wine cellars.

We will resume our stroll along the charming Notre Dame Street. We’ll head for the beautiful Jardin Public (“Public Gardens”) and then the historic center, passing by the Quinconces esplanade and its monument dedicated to the Girondins, the Triangle d’or (“The Golden Triangle”), City Hall and the Saint-André Cathedral. Then we will go through the cobbled streets, pretty plazas (always animated thanks to their cafés!), and finally we will pass in front of the world famous Miroir D’eau (“Water Mirror”) before going to admire the second oldest city gate of Bordeaux and returning to our starting point.

The itinerary may vary according to the weather, possible city events.

JC our guide was awesome and very patient, professional and safe. My wife and I really loved the bike tour of Bordeaux despite it being 34 degrees C today! We covered way more ground than you could hope to do on a walking tour. We really recommend this bike tour!

This tour was one of the BEST bike tours my husband and I have experienced. Or guide, Susanah was simply the greatest. She gave our tour in English and her knowledge, love of her town, humor, and overall talk was simply more than we had hoped for. This city should be on everyone’s list of must see places. Susanah took time to make sure we were completely happy with everything we saw and gave suggestions on eateries, specialty shops, local wines, etc. I can’t say enough about this experience.

We loved this bike tour round Bordeaux, learning about the city's history as we went. Jean-Christophe was the prefect host. The ride is generally very flat with only 1 small incline to cross the bridge. Would definitely recommend, its a great way to see what this beautiful city has to offer.

Biking in Bordeaux!! Our leader of the bike tour, Jean, was very nice and informative. He was careful to remind us of how to stay safe during the ride. We saw a lot of Bordeaux, a city we had never been to. We enjoyed it very much.
