A GUIDED TOUR OF BORDEAUX FOR CHILDREN!

 

We have created a fun, educational and exciting audio tour with the characters of Ellie and Jason. They will help your children discover Bordeaux and its history through dialogues, questions and riddles all along the tour. The whole thing is enhanced by a soundtrack that will captivate your children!

The commentaries were written by a specialist in children and historical heritage, and recorded by professional actors. They are available in English and French.

In practice: just choose channel 10 (for english) or channel 9 (for french).

Listen to an excerpt from the children’s commentaries:

Your children will find the 2 characters from the commentaries on the map of the magic bus, a free game to keep them entertained and discover Bordeaux after the visit.

Exhibition – Around the world in 50 wine regions

The Cité du Vin is hosting the exhibition Around the World in 50 Wine Regions, a visual journey dedicated to the diversity of international wine-growing regions. This programme showcases a selection of photographs from partner regions, each of which has chosen an iconic image to embody its landscape, people or heritage.

The curatorial approach is based on a cross-sectional interpretation of the vineyards, without geographical hierarchy or strict technical classification. The photographs interact with each other through three major themes:

    • the morphology of wine-growing landscapes,
    • the representation of professional gestures
    • and the historical roots of the terroirs.
