The tour, the atmosphere, the wine, and the cannelé... everything is perfect. But the best part is Robin with his explanations and his slight Bordeaux chauvinism, I love it!

Lovely cruise, very well organized, and the guide was very generous with her commentary. Really very pleasant, highly recommended. And the Bordeaux white wine was great.

A very professional crew... Special shout-out to Robin, who gave us fascinating explanations with a sense of humor, and Captain Noëmie, who honked the horn to wave to us

I enjoyed the cruise, the city, the wine, and the cannelé, but most of all, I loved the guide’s explanations: knowledgeable yet lighthearted—just right for tours like this one. Thank you!

We loved our tour of Bordeaux, which we hadn't visited before. The guide was great, so we decided to plan a boat ride on the Garonne one evening, complete with a nice meal.

We really enjoyed the trip, the commentary was informative, the views were great. It was a good amount of time before we then explored Bordeaux by foot.

Cruise the Garonne River for 1.5 hours aboard the elegant Maddalena, offering stunning views of Bordeaux’s UNESCO-listed waterfront.

Savor a glass of Bordeaux wine (or a soft drink) paired with a traditional canelé, the region's signature pastry.

Enjoy live commentary in French and English, with expert hosts sharing insights about Bordeaux's landmarks and history.

Relax in the air-conditioned indoor lounge or take in 360° views of the city from the open-air rooftop deck, ideal for photos.
