I went a few days before Wales v Slovakia in the Football Euros.
This is a wonderful location for exploring Bordeaux by foot and Tram and Bus and Train. I was made most welcome by Jean. Also on the tram line to the Stadium and one stop from the Fan Zone.
I found my way from the Airport on bus then tram from Station thanks to the instructions from the hosts.
There were plenty of tourist information books and maps at the apartment. There is a Tourist Info. at Place Bourse also.
Went on wine tasting day coach tour, train to St. Emillion and Arcachon and the Sand Dune and Bordeaux city and shopping.
Superb hosts, very well equipped and very tidy apartment, Carfour Supermarket and Baker within 3 minutes and Wales won 2-1! Jean even learnt some Welsh words.
