Listed by UNESCO in 2007, Bordeaux is the largest urban area to be protected by them. It can be confusing to discern what's worth seeing upon arrival in the city, especially when your time is limited! So don't let yourself be overwhelmed; I'm here to guide you through a careful personal selection of what I consider the best Bordeaux has to offer. During our two-and-a-half- hour tour, I'll lead you on a gentle walk through the downtown to showcase how Bordeaux's architecture & urbanism have evolved. Together we'll visit hidden charming churches, trace remnants from the Roman period & unveil the gems of 18th-century architecture, which truly characterize Bordeaux. We'll also decode the meaning of medieval remains together! As a local and a graduate in history & art history myself, plus with the aid of maps & archival documents, I'll break down the intricacies of local history for you, providing a clear overview of our millennia-old city.
Depending on our meeting point, the itinerary can vary. This being said, here's a list of the highlights that we'll see along the way: ·19th century Girondin's Monument and Quinconce Square. ·18th century Great Theater and Triangle District. ·17th century Baroque Our Lady Church. ·18th Stockexchange square and the docks facade. ·Water mirror and Stone Bridge. ·Medieval Saint Andrew Cathedral and the neoclassical City hall. ·Medieval Cailhau and Eloi gates. Depending on the weather, make sure to bring a bottle of water and sunscreen or a raincoat and an umbrella. As a token of appreciation for your active listening and participation, you'll be treated to a traditional local pastry to enjoy after our walk!
