Join us for a complete tour of the mysteries and legends of Bordeaux. Uncover the stories of this city by the Garonne River renowned for its wine.

Tour Details

We will meet at the iconic Grosse Cloche to begin our exploration into the mysteries and legends of Bordeaux. Our first stop is Plaza Fernand Lafargue, known for its history of torture. Legends suggest that the ghosts of its victims still linger at night.

Next, we will visit Saint Andrew's Cathedral, retracing the story of the werewolf sentenced to life imprisonment in 1603, along with the discovery of 74 mummies during the French Revolution.

We will uncover tales of forbidden loves and mysterious disappearances around Plaza Gambetta. As we stroll through Bordeaux's winding alleys, we will delve into the history of the Inquisition and the witch persecutions of the region.

The tour lasts for 2.5 hours and will conclude in front of the San Severino Basilica.
