Overview

Bordeaux is both a city of art and the capital of one of the most famous wine regions in the world. The old town, a UNESCO site since 2007, has 347 listed buildings: pale stone façades, Place de la Bourse with the Miroir d'eau reflecting pool, and the Garonne quays where river cruises set off.

Outside the city lie the vineyards of the Médoc and the medieval village of Saint-Émilion, with châteaux to visit and grands crus to taste. In town, the Cité du Vin tells the story of wine around the world and the Bassins des Lumières, in a former submarine base, host digital art exhibitions.

An independent three-night stay, tailor-made with the visits and tastings you prefer.
