Bergerac: Situated in the Dordogne, the picturesque town of Bergerac is well worth a visit. Boasting an attractive old town, Bergerac is adorned with decorative flower beds which give it a colourful, vibrant feel. With plenty of narrow streets for you to explore, Bergerac is home to several museums and markets. The highlight of the old town is the Rue de la Mirpe — an attractive street lined with timber-framed houses and traditional churches. Not only is Bergerac charming, it’s also a haven for foodies; in the town, there are plenty of fine restaurants serving authentic French gastronomy.

Arcachon: Just an hour’s drive from Bordeaux, Arcachon is a great place to visit if you want to spend some time relaxing away from the bustling city. The area is home to a large sand dune surrounded by lush pine forests, as well as fine sandy beaches which are popular spots for swimmers and sunbathers. 

Périgueux: Steeped in history, the beautiful town of Périgueux is just a 90-minute drive from Bordeaux. Take a step back in time to the era of the Roman Empire, and visit the Vesunna Gallo-Roman Museum — dedicated to Gallo-Roman art and architecture. Then, make a stop at the Byzantine-style cathedral, built in the design of a Greek cross. With a maze of medieval streets for you to explore, you will easily pass a day in Périgueux. Food-lovers should visit the town on a Saturday, when a weekly French food market is held.
