With neoclassical architecture, pedestrian-friendly streets, and world-class food and wine, Bordeaux is an immersion in the decadent beauty France has to offer, at a price much cheaper than Paris. In fact, almost seven square miles of the city is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site, the largest urban site in the world. The average price of an Airbnb in Bordeaux is $67 per night.
Most famous for its wine, the Bordeaux regions offers endless experiences for wine-lovers. Within the city, you can take a two-hour workshop at the Bordeaux Wine School for about $40 (available during the Summer), where you'll learn all about the grapes, soil, and other characteristics of Bordeaux wine. You can also skip a class and purchase glasses for about $2 each. After you've done your own sampling, head out for intimate tastings at the surrounding estates.
