Do you like wine? If the answer is yes, Bordeaux should definitely be on your list of places to visit. The city is ridiculously famous for its vineyards and guided tours that include wine-tasting and a trip to the Cellar’s Market. In Bordeaux you can travel through time and discover some of the oldest museums in France. Hop on the Modern Art Bus that takes passengers to see paintings from Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso.

Did someone mention shopping? The Rue Saint Catherine is one of the longest shopping strips in Europe. French people are very proud of their cuisine and Cafe Francais serves all kinds of different traditional dishes from the region. Duck liver with cheese on the side is simply delicious here.

Nature can be amazing and Park Bordelaise besides having 3000 trees is home to an animal farm, a puppet theater and has a superb collection of cool electric cars. Next stop, Miroir d’Eau, a reflecting pool perfect for families with children. Don’t forget to take a boat tour and visit the Oyster capital, Cap Ferret. In the evening, Bordeaux Grand Theater hosts concerts, ballet and opera events. Take a stroll down to the  Place de la Victoire, where all the hip bars and restaurants are located.
