Q: Where do you fly into for Bordeaux?

You'll be touching down at Bordeaux-M é rignac Airport. Located roughly 10 kilometres from the city centre, it's the closest to Bordeaux.

Question 1

What's Bordeaux famous for?

Accepted Answer

Bordeaux is best known for being one of the most famous wine regions in the world, home to some of the world's best wineries. The city also boasts a thriving food scene -- you can easily find oysters, caviar, and foie gras from nearby Arcachon and the Aquitaine, or try unique local dishes like Bordeaux-style steak, the stew Lamprey a la Bordelaise, and small, sweet cannele cakes.

Yet you can do a lot more than just wine and dine here: a trip to Bordeaux also makes for an ideal city break. Active travellers may enjoy its bike-friendly lanes, while shopaholics will love the Rue Sainte-Catherine, among the longest pedestrian shopping streets in Europe. Bringing kids? Book them for an interactive puppet show at the Guignol Guérin. And if you're travelling with your partner, Bordeaux's romantic atmosphere rivals that of Paris. You can stroll along the Garonne River, watch a show at the Opéra National de Bordeaux, or unwind with a couple's massage at the Escale Détente.

Question 2

Which UK cities fly to Bordeaux?

Accepted Answer

You have a few options depending on where you're coming from. Those from Northern Ireland can fly directly to Bordeaux from Belfast, while Glasgow offers flights out of Scotland. If you're coming from England, you can fly out from Bristol, London Luton, London Gatwick or Manchester.

Question 3

Where do you fly into for Bordeaux?

Accepted Answer

You'll be touching down at Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport. Located roughly 10 kilometres from the city centre, it's the closest to Bordeaux.

Question 4

How do you pronounce Bordeaux?

Accepted Answer

Don't be discouraged by the complexities of French pronunciation. You can easily pronounce Bordeaux using two common English words: 'bore' (as in 'boredom') and 'dough.' Pronounce the first syllable quickly and put more emphasis on the second: bore-dough.

Question 5

Does Bordeaux have a beach?

Accepted Answer

Though there aren't any beaches adjacent to the city, Bordeaux is close enough to a few lakes (and, of course, the Atlantic) that you can travel to some great spots in an hour or less. The most accessible by far is Plage du Lac, a small lake-facing beach a mere 10- to 12-minute tram ride from the city centre. A few kilometres away in Arcachon, the Plage des Arbousiers offers vast stretches of golden sand and a lovely promenade, making it one of the most popular beaches near Bordeaux during peak season. There are also more secluded options you can try. One is Le Porge-Océan. It's serene enough for you to unwind, but the nearby old town boasts ample restaurants where you can relax after your time on the water.

Question 6

How many days in Bordeaux is enough?

Accepted Answer

Three days is a solid amount of time to get acquainted with the Pearl of Aquitaine. Spend your first 24 hours exploring the heart of Bordeaux, stopping by attractions like the historic de la Place la Bourse, which took more than 40 years to build, and the world's largest reflecting pool, the Miroir d'Eau. Of course, no trip to Bordeaux is complete without an entire day dedicated to exploring wine, which is why easyJet holiday experiences include half-day excursions of the Medoc, or morning tasting classes and a skip-the-line ticket to the interactive wine museum Cité du Vin. Round everything off on your third day with day trips from Bordeaux to the surrounding countryside, such as a trip to the prehistoric caves of the Dordogne region.

If you want to immerse yourself in Bordeaux even further, extend your trip to up to five days. From here, you can explore the Atlantic coastlines near the city and discover other attractions close by, such as the Dune du Pilat, the largest sand dune in Europe.

Question 7

What does the French word Bordeaux mean?

Accepted Answer

In line with its history of wine production, modern French uses the word Bordeaux for the colour that the English call maroon - a deep purplish red reminiscent of the wines of the region. Yet there's a bigger story behind the name. The roots of the word 'Bordeaux' come from the French phrase 'au bord de l'eau' or 'at the water's edge,' referring to how the rivers Garonne and Dordogne run through the larger Bordeaux region.

Question 8

Is Bordeaux a large city?

Accepted Answer

Kind of! It's among the ten largest cities in France. Bordeaux is also the largest urban area to ever be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site at over 57,000 acres. Around half of that is dedicated to wine production. That said, you'll definitely need a good amount of time to explore the city.

Question 9

How do you get to Bordeaux from the airport?

Accepted Answer

You can get to Bordeaux from the airport by tram, bus, or taxi. The Line A tramway is the cheapest option. Trams leave every 10 minutes and will get you to the city in half an hour. If you're on a family holiday, you may want to get tickets for the hourly bus, as seats are free of charge for children under 5. And if you'd prefer to go straight to your accommodations rather than the city centre, taxis are readily available right outside the terminal.
