Bordeaux's historic center has some cobblestone streets that can be challenging for wheelchairs and strollers, but the main shopping areas and riverside promenades are generally accessible. The modern tram system is fully wheelchair accessible and connects major attractions throughout the city.
Bordeaux is generally very safe for visitors. Like most european cities, use common sense precautions such as watching for pickpockets in crowded areas and keeping valuables secure. The city center is well-lit and patrolled, making it comfortable to walk around even in the evening.
Tipping in France is not mandatory as service charges are typically included in restaurant bills. However, it's common to round up the bill or leave 5-10% for exceptional service. For drinks at cafes, leaving small change is appreciated but not expected.
Bordeaux offers excellent regional specialties including canneles (small fluted pastries), entrecote a la bordelaise (steak with red wine sauce), and fresh oysters from nearby Arcachon Bay. The city also features numerous Michelin-starred restaurants and traditional bistros serving classic French cuisine.
France uses the euro (EUR) as its official currency. You can exchange money at banks, currency exchange offices, or withdraw cash from ATMs throughout the city. Most restaurants, shops, and attractions accept credit cards, though it's wise to carry some cash for small purchases.
Bordeaux is world-renowned for its exceptional wines and is considered the wine capital of the world. The city is also famous for its stunning 18th-century architecture, UNESCO World Heritage historic center, and the modern Cite du Vin wine museum that celebrates global wine culture.
French is the official language in France, but English is commonly spoken in restaurants, hotels, and major attractions in Bordeaux. Many younger people and those working in the service industry speak good English, making communication easy for English-speaking visitors.
The best time to visit Bordeaux is from May to October when the weather is warm and pleasant. September and October are particularly special for wine lovers as it's harvest season. Spring (April-May) offers mild weather and fewer crowds, while summer brings vibrant outdoor dining and festivals.
