# Bordeaux bike tour "The Best of Bordeaux"

**Guidekin's take:** A guided loop of the main neighbourhoods and monuments on comfortable beach cruiser bikes in a small group, with helmets, a steel water bottle to keep and a canelé tasting on the way. An e-bike option exists for the same route, and riders need a minimum height, so small children cannot pedal along. 4.98 from 205 reviews at €36 per person.

**Cruiser city loop?:** Choose the cruiser option for the old town, right bank and canelé at €36 per person for 2h–3h; two to book. 4.98, 205 reviews. Trade-off: Two to book; minimum rider height applies. (last checked September 22, 2026)
