Bordeaux is such an amazing city, full of history, elegant architecture, vibrant way of life and I love sharing my knowledge of Bordeaux to my visitors and make people have amazing experience 😊
Wondering about the mysterious Chartrons district?
Join us for a unique tour of the Chartrons district in Bordeaux! Discover its mysterious history and buildings that conceal the traces of a poignant past. From the time when the area was nothing more than vast marshlands, through the golden age and the trade districts, to today with the charming Rue Notre-Dame and its antique shops, the Chartrons district holds a compelling history deeply intertwined with Bordeaux's identity.
We will begin our journey along the quays, in order to discover how Bordeaux established itself. Our focus will be on the evolution of its port, a significant player in the city's prosperity. Later, we'll shift our attention to the Chartrons district. Quickly, we'll understand its crucial role in maritime trade, yet beneath this elegant facade lies a narrative with delicate secrets that the city may find challenging to admit.
