Bordeaux, located in southwestern France, is the world’s largest fine wine region, and, for red wines, certainly the most familiar outside of France. The great wine-producing areas of Bordeaux straddle two rivers along which can be found some of the prettiest châteaux. Experience the city on a cultural and gastronomical stroll through the historic town centre. Make a trip to Unesco classified village of Saint Emilion to taste some of these prestigious wines and on Arcachon Bay you will discover this incomparable site during a cruise while tasting truly fresh oysters!
