The 10 Best Outdoor Activities in Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine

October 2, 2021 Sachiko Swiger

After many years of hard work, the "Sleeping Beauty" has awoken from its slumber. The city is beautifully restored and has an ultra-modern public transport system. The “Port of the Moon” is also now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Stone Bridge, with its 17 arches, crosses the Garonne, offering pedestrians a lovely view over the docks and harbor. Take a stroll through old Bordeaux in the Triangle d'Or and stop at Place des Quinconces, France’s largest public square. The city of Bordeaux is an ideal base for exploring the greater wine region’s unforgettable sights and tastes.

Reviewed By MB100Bxlls - Westhill, United Kingdom

Excellent quality/condition Cube e-bike rental and service from O2. Reluctantly returned my e-bike yesterday after a 2 - extended to 3-week tour of Gironde, Dordogne. Charente, Perigord and the Medoc regions. Norbert and Johnathon are extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful to deal with. Pick up was easy and I was given good instructions/guidance before setting off. They accommodated my extension and were very flexible with my last minute change to drop off timing. I could not have asked for more. A great service which I would readily recommend.
