Take a day trip
No matter where you land in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, a picture-perfect town or city is never far away. The famed wine-growing region, Bourdeaux, sits pretty on the Garonne River and is a kaleidoscope of Gothic architecture, historic structures and top-notch gastronomy. While La Rochelle and Cognac offer postcard scenes to boot.
See the sights
It's sightseeing galore in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region! Tick off impressive structures like the Place de la Bourse and the Cathedrale Saint-Andre on a trip to Bordeaux. Visit the Fortified House of Reignac in Tursac before delving deeper into the natural beauty of the UNESCO-stamped Dordogne Valley!
Vast vineyards
It’ll be wine tastings here and tipple sampling there when you escape to the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. Bordeaux is on your doorstep after all. Make the most of the Cabernet capital and explore some of the country’s best vineyards. Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion and Château Pape Clément are just a couple of the showstoppers.
