The International Cultural Days in Bordeaux started with a welcome cocktail reception and speeches at the Café Maritime, a space big enough to accommodate almost 300 guests, near the Cité du Vin.
On the first day, we enjoyed an interesting and varied programme that offered a choice of excursions including trips to the Bassin d’Arcachon, the Palais Forteresses, dating back to the 14th and 16th century, the Gironde Estuary, the St Emilion medieval town with wine tasting.
On the second day, which focused on Bordeaux we enjoyed a choice of visits including a walking tour ot the historic centre, the Chartrons district and a cruise on the Garonne river.
We ended the visit with an international friendship evening at the Musée d’Art Contemporain.
