About this experience
Bordeaux Guided Cruise on the Garonne This 90-minute guided cruise takes you along the Garonne River to see Bordeaux's most famous landmarks from the water. You will sail past the UNESCO-listed historic quays, the magnificent Place de la Bourse, and modern marvels like the Cité du Vin, whilst listening to live commentary about the city's trading past and architectural evolution. The cruise aboard the Aquitania offers excellent views of Bordeaux's 18th-century facades that line the riverside, plus contemporary engineering such as the Jacques Chaban-Delmas bridge. Your guide shares stories about the port of the Moon's history and points out cultural landmarks you might miss walking around the city. It is an ideal introduction to Bordeaux for first-time visitors, or a relaxing way to see the city from a different perspective.
