What to expect
Riding on a comfortable Dutch-style bike, you will explore the city at a relaxed pace with a passionate guide who knows Bordeaux inside out.
Your ride begins at the Grosse Cloche, Bordeaux's medieval bell tower and one of the oldest monuments in the city. Dating back to the 13th century, this former city gate sets the tone for a journey through centuries of history.
From there, you will pedal to the Gothic Cathedral Saint-André and the adjacent Pey-Berland Tower, before reaching the neoclassical Grand Théâtre, one of the finest examples of 18th-century architecture in France.
The route then takes you through the Jardin Public, one of the oldest parks in France, where history and nature come together in a peaceful green setting. A perfect spot to slow down and take it all in.
Continuing along the scenic banks of the Garonne River, you will enjoy open views of the waterfront before crossing to discover Darwin Ecosystem, Bordeaux's creative hub for street art, sustainable innovation, and local entrepreneurship.
Your tour ends at the Place de la Bourse and the famous Miroir d'Eau, the largest reflecting pool in the world and one of Bordeaux's most photographed spots.
Throughout the ride, your guide shares stories, local secrets, and historical facts that bring the city to life in a way no guidebook can.
With a maximum of 15 participants, the atmosphere stays intimate and the pace stays comfortable for everyone, including families with young children. A child seat is available on request.
