About this tour
Experience Bordeaux from an unconventional vantage point aboard a vintage sidecar, navigating the city's grand boulevards and architectural landmarks with a knowledgeable local driver. This 45-minute private tour accommodates solo travellers or couples in a single sidecar, or groups of three to four across two vehicles. You'll hear insider commentary on the wine capital's history and notable sites whilst feeling the genuine texture of the streets rather than viewing them through a bus window.
Highlights
- Private sidecar with local driver-guide for 45 minutes
- Rotate seating between sidecar basket and rear position
- Live narration on Bordeaux's architecture and heritage
- Two sidecars available for groups of three to four
- Helmets and safety gear provided
- All fitness levels welcome
What to expect
Your driver will collect you and brief you on safety before departure. If travelling as a pair, you'll take turns in the sidecar basket and behind the driver—a practical swap mid-tour keeps things interesting. Groups split into two vehicles for comfort and proper weight distribution. Expect winding routes past classical facades, riverside promenades, and quarters that reveal themselves better from the road than a map. The open-air nature means you'll genuinely smell the city and hear street-level sounds. Commentary flows naturally as your guide navigates familiar routes.
