A Private Day Trip from Bordeaux Region

speaking tour guide, taxes, tolls and parking.
Not included: Lunch and entrance fees
Join one of our private guided tours from Bordeaux for a Garonne Villages tour
and explore charming villages and some of the
most interesting architecture in the area. This privately guided day trip from Bordeaux features the
villages of the Entre-Deux-Mers area, not between
two seas as the name translates, but two rivers,
the Garonne and the Dordogne. After a drive
along the Garonne River, lined with mansions
and chateaus, you will arrive in the Medieval
village of St. Macaire. This village stands
apart from its neighbors for having carefully
preserved nearly all its architectural heritage
-- city walls, gates, and houses – giving the
village the feel of a place where time stood
still. After the visit to St. Macaire, you
will continue your private tour and drive to
the hill town of La Sauve Majeure to discover
one of the most spectacular monuments of the
region. Founded in 1079, its Benedictine Abbey
is considered of the most beautiful Romanesque
landmarks in southern France. You will have
time to explore the Abbey and soak up its serene
green views before heading back to Bordeaux.
