YACHT DE BORDEAUX

We thoroughly enjoyed this commented cruise. The commentary was informative and engaging, providing fascinating insights into Bordeaux’s history, architecture, and UNESCO-listed waterfront. Seeing the city from the Garonne River offered a completely different perspective and made the experience even more memorable. The complimentary glass of local wine and the traditional canelé were a lovely touch and perfectly complemented the cruise. The staff were welcoming, the boat was comfortable, and boarding was smooth with no issues at all. This activity offers excellent value for money and is a relaxing way to discover Bordeaux, whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning to the city. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family looking for an enjoyable and authentic Bordeaux experience.

Very nice experience. The guide was also well informed and her storytelling was enjoyable. Overall, well worth it.

My cruise was included as one of the options on the Bordeaux 1 Day City Pass which made it cheaper than the company’s advertised price. I had no problems booking and the ticket issued at the Tourist Office was recognised when I boarded. It was a beautifully sunny day but I couldn’t find a seat in the covered areas which meant 90 minutes in full sun - remember your sun screen. Although the commentary in French and English was interesting, there wasn’t much of interest to see after passing under the Pont Jacques Chabon-Delmas. Might there be more to see by going South East towards Pont St-Jean? The canelle was given immediately on boarding. Perhaps it would be better to give it with the glass of wine. I had the rosé but didn’t think it was of very good quality. The crew were very polite an friendly and the commentator was very enthusiastic which made it a very pleasant outing.

We had a very warm welcome on board. The boat was lovely, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our little treat and glass of wine and were impressed with the reasonable prices at the bar. We would highly recommend this excursion. It was informative and fun. Also a pleasant and relaxing way to view the beautiful city of Bordeaux.

Fomos fazer o passeio de barco incluído no city pass, a reserva foi feita no turismo de uma forma muito fácil e rápida, tendo-nos dado todas as indicações para o dia do cruzeiro. Julgo que esta foi a melhor opção (das três incluídas no city pass), pois dá-nos uma perspetiva diferente da cidade e dos arredores. O guia foi fantástico, fala muito bem inglês, os comentários e o enquadramento histórico foram muito úteis para compreender o desenvolvimento da cidade, e esteve sempre muito atento aos clientes. Tivemos direito a um Canelé e a uma bebida (podia ser vinho mas tem outras opções). O barco é confortável, com uma sala climatizada e protegida do sol e um primeiro andar aberto. Aconselho vivamente, especialmente para quem já explorou a cidade a pé (como foi o nosso caso, e portanto a visita a pé ou o mini trem não tinham grande interesse) e procura uma perspetiva diferente.

La guía fue excelente, nos mantuvo siempre entretenidos con datos de color muy interesantes y con un toque de humor! Pasear por el río tomando una copa de vino local es una experiencia que definitivamente recomendaría, no se lo pierdan! Está incluído en el City Pass pero hay que hacer la reserva en la oficina de turismo cuando retiran la tarjeta.
