Ride a bicycle at a comfortable pace through the medieval heart of Bordeaux and admire the city’s most spectacular architecture from an up-close, street-level view. You can expect to see plenty of others bicycling, as it is a favored way for residents to commute. Your exact route from the Chartrons riverfront will be determined by traffic conditions and the pace that your group maintains. Chances are, you will see the remains of a Roman amphitheater, the Royal Cailhau gate, which was once a part of the city’s defensive walls, and the Grand Theatre, one of Bordeaux’s most iconic and beloved buildings. Bicycling allows you to experience the city from a different perspective and gives you the opportunity to easily pause at attractions of particular interest. You may also see areas that you might wish to explore later on your own such as Rue Sainte-Catherine. This lengthy, pedestrian-only street is one of Bordeaux’s primary spots for shopping.
