Everybody knows about BOURDEAUX and wine so I don’t really need to say much about that. But the city of Bayonne is something very different. It is a little bit touristy but it is a small city and very interesting to walk around. You should spend at least a day there. it is in the Basque area so the people are very different from the French and the language seemingly has no relationship to any other language in the world. So when you visit see if you can tell the difference between the atmosphere around the Basque people and the French.
But getting back to BOURDEAUX they have a very nice and beautiful wine museum where you can also do the experience where you learn about wine tasting and flavors and so forth. Coming from the Bay Area as a kid we did this so many times it’s something you should think about doing if you have done this before. I didn’t want to do it but they’re also are some specific things about the area and the taste of the wines in that specific area you might want to consider.
