Private Guided Tour of Street Art in the Chartrons 

Come and discover one of the most picturesque areas of Bordeaux in a different light, thanks to a variety of Street artists. Follow your guide from the Garonne riverside straight to the heart of the Chartrons to understand how this unmissable district of the city has become a popular hub for Bordelais and street artists alike.

Former wine-trading quarter coveted for its proximity with the quays of Bordeaux’s port, the Chartrons started to develop north of the city-centre from the 17th century. This renowned faubourg, initially distinct from Bordeaux, became increasingly prosperous, often attracting a foreign population with a very different identity than the city’s inhabitants. So, it’s not actually that surprising that various street artists, whose expression of art is somewhat non-standard, seized the walls of the Chartrons, a district full of charm, stories to tell and surfaces to paint.

From the quays of the Garonne to the antique dealers of Rue Notre Dame, whilst passing by the old wine storehouses, you will observe the work of renowned artists such as Clet, A-MO, Mr Poulet and Alber. This artistic exploration of the Chartrons, sprinkled with history and anecdotes is the perfect way to (re)discover this charming area in a fun and original manner.

Visit and Oyster Tasting on the Deck at an Authentic Farm in the Cap Ferret.

An Unforgettable Paragliding Ride above The Dune du Pyla

The flight will be adapted according to your feelings of the moment. It is quite possible to make only a quiet ride for the most contemplative, a flight entirely centered on the learning of the piloting for the most curious, or an eventful ride from the beginning to the end for the most daring!

Make your way to the Dordogne region

Private visit to Château Fonplégade with tasting – Saint-Émilion grand cru classé

Château Fonplégade is recognized for its fine Saint-Émilion Grand Crus. It represents the purest expression of Saint-Émilion’s terroir. Grapes have thrived on this limestone plateau since at least the 16th century. The vineyards were purchased in 1852 by the wine merchant Jean-Pierre Beylot who built the elegant château. Current owners Denise and Stephen Adams acquired Château Fonplégade in 2004. They have revitalized the vineyards, renovated the cellar, and lovingly restored the château. They received organic farming certification in 2013. Their model demonstrates how biodiverse and holistic agriculture can help to elevate fine wines. Besides the vineyards, the estate boasts honeybees, chickens, and sheep!

Suggestion: Exploring Bergerac

Bergerac is Dordogne’s largest wine appellation. This area is home to more than a dozen Appellation d’Origine Contrôlées (AOCs), covering red, white, and rosé variations. The most famous is the white Monbazillac and the deep red Montravel. You can learn all about the region’s fine wines at the Maison des Vins.

The charming city of Bergerac is worth exploring. The Notre Dame and Saint-Jacques Churches are among its highlights. The historic district is characterized by half-timbered houses. The Place Pélissière is a wonderful spot for lunch or a drink. The Musée du Tabac is a curious stop that explores tabacco’s cultural, sociological, and historical impact. It is housed in a 17th-century château.

One-Hour Small Shared Guided Group Tour of the Lascaux Caves

In a well-known story, the Lascaux caves were discovered in 1940 by a group of teenagers who were searching for their dog. After the end of the second world war the caves were opened to the public, to great acclaim, but then were closed in 1963 because the paintings were being damaged by the breath of thousands of visitors.

The cave paintings at Lascaux are mostly pictures of large animals. There are also some carvings of animals to be seen, and a few images of people, most notably in a sequence that seems to represent a bison hunt. In total there are more than 1000 images in the cave system, and their vibrancy and color make them the prehistoric equivalent of the Sistine Chapel – except they were painted in almost complete darkness!

A copy of the caves was created nearby so that visitors to Lascaux could still appreciate the caves. Known as Lascaux II, the ‘reproduction’ caves are a copy of most of the prehistoric paintings contained in the original Lascaux caves, 200 meters away. As far as possible the same materials – natural pigments, etc – and techniques have been used for the copies as for the originals.
