Helpful Tourist Office, but ....
Very helpful guy in the office, gave us all sorts of maps and info. Great City Pass calculator online, so we took advantage of the 3 day one and saved a fortune. Assuming that the tourist office is in charge of their website, sorry but there is so much that doesn’t work, e.g. City Wi-Fi hotspots constantly told me my clock was wrong and wouldn’t let me in. So never benefited from the free City Wi-Fi. Also we had to actually go to the office to pick up the City Pass. Come on guys, it’s 2026 – digital download on smartphones maybe …. We also had to go back to the office to book the river cruise – no idea why as for everything else we just showed our City Pass.
Response from the operator: Dear Foodange, Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and for your kind words about our team. Also, we're delighted that you found the CityPass represented excellent value. We're sorry to learn that you experienced difficulties with the Bordeaux Wi-Fi that is managed by an external provider. We will share your comments with the relevant service. Regarding the CityPass collection, we understand that a fully digital solution may seem like the obvious option. However, welcoming visitors to the Tourist Office is a deliberate choice on our part. We believe that a personal welcome from our team adds real value to the visitor experience, allowing us to provide tailored advice, answer questions, share maps and recommendations, and help visitors make the most of their stay in Bordeaux. As for the river cruise, advance booking at the Tourist Office is required because places are limited and subject to availability. Thank you again for your constructive comments. Feedback like yours helps us continue to improve our services while maintaining the personal touch; something we care deeply about. Best regards.

Good value if you can take advantage of most things it offers
If you plan and take advantage of everything/most things this pass offers, it is a good value, but if you will only be using the transport a couple of times and only visit 2 or so places, I don't think it is a good value. The pass also comes with a free guided tour, or 1 tour via tram, or a boat tour, but all has to be booked at the tourism office.
Response from the operator: Dear esrak259, We're pleased to hear that you found the CityPass to be good value. The pass is indeed designed for visitors wishing to explore Bordeaux extensively and enjoy a range of cultural sites, museums etc Regarding the guided tours, the tourist train and the river cruise, advance booking through the Tourist Office is required as places are limited and subject to availability. This helps ensure visitors can enjoy these experiences in the best possible conditions. We appreciate your comments, as they help future visitors better understand how to get the most from the Bordeaux CityPass. Best regards.

Outstanding service!
Extremely welcoming & helpful. Bought my CityPass here & the lady (whose name I have unfortunately forgotten) fully explained the options and functionality. She booked my Petit Train tour (free option with the City Pass) and I was off and away within 10 minutes! Excellent service!
Response from the operator: Dear Voyageur544, We thank you for your very kind comment we shared with our team and the note you gave us. Don't hesitate to come-back, we will be happy to help you in organizing your stay. We hope to see you again soon. Best regards.

Bordeaux CityPass
I bought the 96-hour pass and worked my way through the vast majority of the attractions booklet that came with it. I visited between 2-3 attractions each day and opted for the Little Electric Train tour also. I estimate a saving of approx 25 Euros based on my visits and what I would have spent had I paid for each separately. Having the Pass helped me plan my visits and probably visit a couple more attractions than I otherwise would have. The Pass has to be bought/collected from the Tourist Information Office in the centre of town.

If you are headed to...
If you are headed to Bordeaux, don’t sleep on this pass!! It covered all public transportation (tram was super easy to use). It even covered a number of museums - the Wine Museum was amazing. It allows discounted activities as well - we rode the Ferris wheel at the Christmas Market for 1/2 price.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bordeaux.
How much does Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions cost?
+
Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bordeaux usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions take?
+
Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bordeaux is not rushed.
Is Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 123 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bordeaux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions?
+
Around 43 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bordeaux can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bordeaux and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bordeaux within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bordeaux?
+
On Outty we rank every Bordeaux experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Saint-Emilion Electric Bike Day Tour with Wine Tastings & Lunch, Saint-Émilion Afternoon Tour - 2 Grand crus & French apéritif, Graves & Saint-Emilion Wine Tour | 3 Châteaux & Gourmet Picnic. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bordeaux?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bordeaux?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Bordeaux City Pass, Unlimited public transport & 20 attractions?
+

+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 3 listed pickup locations in and around Bordeaux.
