The wine flows dark red into the glass, in the background the vines sway gently in the warm evening air ... A perfect moment to indulge in shared memories. But before you can reflect on your heroic deeds, you first need to gather new impressions. How about an urban scavenger hunt where you can put your talents to the test at the same time? That's exactly what our scavenger hunt in Bordeaux offers you. You will come across many restaurants, but also numerous other sights to discover here.
Bordeaux is situated in a privileged geographical location, not directly by the sea, but still in a maritime environment. This allows unique wines to thrive here and ensures a temperate climate. People recognized this advantage early on and there is evidence that the first settlements were established over 2,000 years ago. The Celts were followed by the Romans, Franks and other rulers, but the city only became a permanent part of France in the 15th century. If you take a look at the facades and buildings during your Bordeaux scavenger hunt, you will quickly realize that French culture has had a significant influence on the city as it is today. The old town of Vieux Bordeaux looks like something out of a fairytale book, so picturesque are the streets between the Garonne and the former city walls.
One of the most impressive landmarks is Saint-André Cathedral with its 81-metre-high towers. As you stroll through the old town, you will always have a spectacular view of its richly decorated north façade. Incidentally, it is by no means the only church in the center; numerous other religious buildings are just a few hundred meters away.
The Place de la Bourse is also a must-see when exploring the city. It bears witness to the wealth and innovative spirit of the city, as it was the first open square of its kind in the early 18th century. Originally named Place Royale, it has retained its royal charm to this day. Especially in the evening hours, you can enjoy an impressively romantic view here when the lights are reflected in the river. There are also some excellent restaurants nearby, for which Bordeaux is just as famous as for its wine. The historic center is also a great destination if you want to make culinary discoveries after your scavenger hunt. The selection of regional specialties is huge and it is difficult to make a recommendation in view of this variety. But the sweet Canelé is definitely worth a try!
Fancy exploring the city and gathering new impressions? Then get your tickets in our store, charge your smartphones and head to the starting point in the city center. Once there, log into our app and the Bordeaux scavenger hunt can begin. There is a GPS navigation system to guide you so that you can reach the stations safely and see various sights along the way. We send it directly to your game master's smartphone. You decide who that will be. You also determine the other roles, for example photographer and architect.
With this set up, you are ready to solve any task, no matter how tricky. Our tip: It's best to work together as a team, then every challenge is achievable. And good teamwork is rewarded. We will credit you with points for every correct solution in our Bordeaux scavenger hunt leaderboard. Are you strong enough for first place?
As you stroll through the streets of Bordeaux, you will discover cultural and historical sights at every turn. One real landmark is the Pont de Pierre. It spans the Garonne River with 17 arches and was commissioned by Napoleon himself. There are also very modern visitor magnets such as the digital art museum Bassins des Lumières. Housed in a former submarine hangar, it displays digital works of art from all over the world.
It goes without saying that a trip to the city's world-famous surrounding area, where the legendary wines that have made this region famous thrive, is well worthwhile. Saint Emilion, Ile de Ré and the Dordogne Valley are just a few of the popular destinations close to your scavenger hunt in Bordeaux.
