A vacation rental in Bordeaux is ideal for a visit of the town the time of a pleasant weekend or for a longer holiday.

Discovering Bordeaux, sailing on the Garonne

Sailing on a boat along the river Garonne upto its junction with the Gironde is highly suggested and is indeed the best way to start a visit of Bordeaux. Along the banks of the Garonne, you will see magnificent 17th century buildings and “façades” fronts, whilst your boat sails in direction of Médoc and Blayais hills for a wine tasting afternoon in classified growth vineyards and castles. Enjoy a typical drink “apéritif vigneron” with red wine or a dinner on the boat before sailing back to Bordeaux. You will love your week-end in Bordeaux, having your vacation home on the roofs of the historical centre, waiting for you for an intimate evening in total privacy far from crowded and noisy hotels. On your way back, enjoy the golden colours of Bordeaux buildings at the end of the day mirrored in the waters of the Garonne. Elegant town, scenic town, this is indeed Bordeaux. If you cannot afford a condo or a penthouse on the roofs and if you are looking for a low-budget holiday, you have a number of cheap apartments and alternative accommodations available such as guesthouses and rooms for rent.
