Preguntas y Respuestas sobre Viajar de San Sebastian a Bordeaux
Is there a direct train from San Sebastian to Bordeaux?
Unfortunately, there is no direct train from San Sebastian to Bordeaux. If you want to travel by train, you must use one of the three train lines to get to the Hendaia train station in Irun. From here you can take another train to Bordeaux. However, it's important to note that some of these trains might involve additional stops and stopovers.
How do you get from San Sebastian, Spain, to Bordeaux, France?
You can get from San Sebastian in Spain to Bordeaux in France in three ways: either by bus, train, or private car service. The best option from these three is a private car service like Daytrip. With Daytrip's door-to-door car service, your transportation worries will be a thing of the past.
Is Bordeaux worth visiting?
Definitely! Bordeaux is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its 2000-year-long history and has more protected buildings than any other city in France except Paris. And if historic monuments and jaw-dropping palaces aren’t your thing, it’s also the gastronomic capital of the renowned Bordeaux region.
Where should you stop when traveling from San Sebastian to Bordeaux?
There are many places to stop when you travel from San Sebastian to Bordeaux, but if you don't have too much time, we recommend Château d'Abbadie and Rocher de la Vierge. These give you the perfect blend of decadence and natural beauty before you get to Bordeaux.
Is Bordeaux a walkable city?
Most of Bordeaux’s top attractions are in the city center, so you can easily reach them on foot (just have comfortable footwear!). The other perk of walking is you can work off all the delicious food and wine you’ll no doubt stop to sample during your explorations!
Is there a train from San Sebastián to France?
Yes, there is a train from San Sebastián to France, but there isn't a direct one to Bordeaux. You will need to take one of three trains to a secondary station before you can journey to Bordeaux. To bypass the hassle, use a private car service like Daytrip which is less fuss and can be cheaper with seats starting at 81 euros.

About Bordeaux
Nestled on the banks of the Garonne River, Bordeaux has been renowned for its incredible architecture, rich history, intriguing culture, and world-famous wines for centuries. It's a melting pot of art, culinary delights, and culture, which is unsurprising considering the city has more than 2,000 years of history that perfectly supports its unique modern sophistication paired with old-world charm.
Bordeaux is the charming capital of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, so it can offer visitors several once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. From indulging in wine tastings at a prestigious chateau and learning more about the 7000 winemakers in the region and the oldest vineyards in the world to sightseeing in the Bordeaux Old Town and walking along the river – there's something for everyone. Then, let's not forget the water wonders found in Bordeaux, thanks to its illustrious maritime history.
Bordeaux is a port city, so the Gironde estuary reveals immense nature, culture, wine tourism, and enchanting chateaux. If you travel further along this city's coast, you'll also get to feel the silky sand of the Arcachon basin between your toes, and you might even get the chance to savor a few delicious oysters!
Returning to land, there's much to see and do in Bordeaux. From lavish 18th-century buildings and UNESCO-listed quays surrounding the imposingly elegant Place de la Bourse to the famed mirror of the water and the many gastronomic delights, including decadent pastries, regional delicacies, and Michelin-starred fine dining establishments, you'll find something to occupy your time.
From San Sebastian to Bordeaux: travel tips
Do you plan to travel from San Sebastian to Bordeaux? If so, you need to keep a few travel tips in mind. Armed with these travel tips, you'll be more likely to maximize your time, stay conscious of your budget, and, most importantly, enjoy yourself.
Plan ahead to avoid seasonal closures
One of the only downsides of traveling to a European city is that they often enact seasonal closures on attractions, restaurants, and shops. In France, the summer holidays are sacrosanct, with most people taking time off for two to three weeks in July or August.
Unfortunately, basic services like banks and post offices have skeleton staff during this time, and some are closed altogether. That's why it's important to plan ahead to ensure the places you want to visit along the way to Bordeaux and the city itself are open and accepting visitors.
You can plan ahead by buying tickets weeks to months in advance (this is a nifty way to ensure prices are at their lowest) and reserving high-end restaurant spots and accommodations ahead of schedule.
Choose the right mode of transportation
There are many travel options for those who want to travel from San Sebastian to Bordeaux, but the best option is a road trip. If you travel with a private car service like Daytrip, you'll be free to be spontaneous with sightseeing stops along the way.
We recommend stopping to snap a few pictures of a few local dishes in Hondarribia while enjoying some of the best local food you'll ever eat. Or why not lay out a blanket for an impromptu picnic at Rocher de la Vierge before venturing onto the famed rock at this location?
When you book with Daytrip, the options are endless regardless of what you want to see and do. And if you book early enough, you'll save on transportation costs, and our expert drivers know exactly how to avoid annoying traffic and scarce parking situations.
Be prepared for strikes
Many travelers aren't aware that strikes are common in France, so it's important to plan for this possibility when traveling from San Sebastian to Bordeaux.
Often, strikes disrupt or cancel transportation services in France, which can severely impact your French adventure. So, it might be best to put alternative travel options on the back burner—like Daytrip. Daytrip isn't affected by strikes, so you're guaranteed a stress-free trip.
How to get from San Sebastian to Bordeaux
San Sebastian and Bordeaux are beautiful cities in their own right, but getting from San Sebastian to Bordeaux can be a headache if you're unfamiliar with European transportation options.
That's why we've discussed three of the best choices below to help you determine the best travel option for your budget and preferences.
Just note that ferry travel is not listed as there is no ferry between these cities, but if you're interested in a short cruise, Bordeaux offers a few cruise tours by boat.
From San Sebastian to Bordeaux by bus
For most travelers, the best budget option to get from San Sebastian to Bordeaux is to take the bus. Three bus service providers—BlaBlaCar Bus, Flixbus, and Iberocoach —complete the trip between these two European cities.
BlaBlaBus is the fastest bus option, taking about three hours and 15 minutes to complete. The bus leaves hourly every day, and the tickets cost between $17 and $26. Then, Iberocoach offers the cheapest trips. With Iberocoach, you should expect a ticket to cost between $12 and $17, but don't expect a luxury three-hour and 58-minute trip to Bordeaux.
Lastly, Flixbus is a good option for those seeking a reliable bus service that isn't too expensive. Unfortunately, Flixbus doesn't offer as many trips daily, but a bus leaves every three hours from San Sebastian to Bordeaux. The average ticket cost is between $22 and $35, but the ride is bound to be more comfortable than Ibercoach, even though the bus trip is just over four hours with a stop or two.
From San Sebastian to Bordeaux by train
Euskotren, SNCF, and TGV inOui are the three train lines that offer trips from San Sebastian to Bordeaux. These trains are incredibly convenient, but you often must catch two trains to get to Bordeaux. This is because only two of the three provide high-speed train services, and there is no direct train between the two cities.
Typically, you would catch the Euskotren at the Amara-Donostia train station, which will take you to the Hendaia train station in Irun in a little under 40 minutes. From Hendaia, you will travel to the Bordeaux St Jean train station in France. The second half of this trip will take about two and a half hours, with the entirety of the trip costing between $32 and $92.
It is also important to note that the Euskotren runs hourly, the SNCF only offers trips once every four hours, and the TGV inOui only provides trips between the two cities five times daily. When there are strikes in France, you should expect delays, and although it is scenic, the train might not be too comfortable, and there is no chance of sightseeing.
From San Sebastian to Bordeaux by private car
In our opinion, the best way to travel from San Sebastian to Bordeaux is by private car service Daytrip, and we don't say this because we're biased. With a private car service, you get several benefits you wouldn't get when traveling via the bus or train.
Daytrip will bring you door-to-door, from your accommodation in San Sebastian to your hotel in Bordeaux without you having to worry about handling your luggage. Our drivers are also English-speaking professionals who can share tips and insights.
And unlike any other transportation option, you can stop for sightseeing at places like the neo-Gothic Chateau d'Abbadie or the dramatic Rocher de la Vierge on your way to Bordeaux. And let's not forget how our drivers will expertly navigate the roads between these two cities to avoid traffic and keep you entertained the entire way!
Things to do when you get to Bordeaux
Bordeaux is a luxury destination in France that is worth a visit, especially if you plan to tour other cities and towns along the way.
But knowing what to do in Bordeaux can be challenging, which is why we've shared a few of the best things to see and do if you plan to drive from San Sebastian to Bordeaux.
You'll notice we never shared any wine spots since there are so many stellar vineyards and wineries that making a list is nigh impossible.
Place de la Bourse
The distance between San Sebastian and Bordeaux is worth driving to Place de la Bourse alone. This jaw-dropping 18th-century square was built during King Louis XV's reign and is the centerpiece of Bordeaux’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. Not only is the square itself worth visiting, but its nearby locations and attractions make it even more worthwhile.
For example, if you visit Place de la Bourse, you'll also tour the charming Chartrons neighborhood and see the impressive 37,000-square-foot Miroir d'Eau, the largest reflecting pool in the world.
Marché des Capucins
Foodies will love wandering through the Marché des Capucins, a gorgeous open-air market that has been thriving for decades.
When visiting, you'll get to wander from vendor to vendor, buying different types of local foods to feast on right there and then or to save for later. We recommend buying cream-filled pastries, fresh cheeses, fruit, and authentic local delicacies you won't get to try anywhere else.
In addition, if you're a seafood lover, you must not miss the opportunity to visit Chez Jean-Mi, an oyster bar in the Marché des Capucins that sells a delectable selection of fresh-shucked oysters ready to tantalize your taste buds.
Cathédrale Saint-André
We know that religious attractions aren't for everyone, but when in France, it's usually a good idea to visit the cathedrals in the towns and cities you visit, as they are some of the most spectacular in the world.
You'll want to visit the Cathédrale Saint-André, otherwise known as the Bordeaux Cathedral. This cathedral is open to the public and is one of the world's most beautifully designed houses of worship.
Not only is the Gothic-style Roman Catholic architecture impressive, but its sweeping sky-high spires are also worth a second look, as is its treasure trove of medieval paintings known as the Marcade Collection.
When is the best time to visit Bordeaux?
The best time to visit Bordeaux is from May through October when the city experiences long, warm, sunny days that feel nearly endless. During these months, all the attractions, shops, restaurants, and businesses will be open, which is not the case in August and December.
However, if you don't mind many things being closed and want to visit more for the ambiance than the attractions, winter's a great time to visit since there will be significantly fewer crowds and cheaper accommodation. You should also note that the winter months are wet and rainy, so you must pack accordingly if you plan to visit in the winter.
We also recommend that oenophiles (wine lovers) visit during the harvest season, as it will be a trip of a lifetime. This season runs from August to early September or October, depending on the year. During the harvest season, you'll get to stroll through ancient vineyards, learn more about the winemaking process, and enjoy wine and cheese pairings like you've never before enjoyed.

“Utilicé este servicio para un traslado desde Split, en Croacia, hasta Perast, Montenegro. Mi experiencia fue excepcional. Mi conductor, Bojan, fue servicial, informativo y se aseguró de que mi viaje fuera cómodo y agradable. Recomiendo encarecidamente este servicio.”
“Quedamos extremadamente satisfechos con la calidad del servicio que recibimos de Day Trip. Tuvimos dos viajes con Day Trip el 31 de agosto de Atenas a Lefkada y el 7 de septiembre de Lefkada de regreso a Atenas. Ambos viajes incluyeron paradas en lugares pintorescos de Grecia. Ambos conductores fueron excelentes y complacientes. Sin embargo, nos gustaría especialmente reconocer a Panos Peppas, quien fue nuestro conductor de Lefkada a Atenas. Panos fue increíblemente amable y agradable, y brindó un servicio al cliente excepcional, que incluyó encargarse de todo nuestro equipaje, proporcionarnos aguas frías durante todo el viaje, darnos barritas de proteína, entregarnos material impreso sobre el Canal de Corinto (una de las paradas escénicas), buscar y facilitarnos información sobre la terminal y la puerta de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa, y proporcionarnos una receta de tzatziki.”

“Nos encanta absolutamente esta empresa y la hemos usado muchas veces a lo largo de los años para ir de un lugar a otro sin la molestia de alquilar un coche nosotros mismos. Conductores excelentes cada vez. Eficientes y profesionales. Vale cada centavo y sinceramente recomendamos Day Trip a todos. Su calificación de 5 estrellas está totalmente merecida.”
“Viajamos de Núremberg a Múnich en un hermoso Audi. El conductor nos recogió en nuestro hotel a la hora exacta solicitada. Nos llevó a Múnich con suficiente tiempo para nuestro próximo tour. El conductor se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos.”
“Gonzalo de Daytrip fue nuestro conductor y fue absolutamente increíble. Hizo todo lo posible por localizarnos, ya que no teníamos buena señal en nuestros teléfonos. Esperó pacientemente nuestra llegada al vestíbulo para llevarnos desde el Tulum Dreams Resort a nuestro otro hotel en Cancún, a una hora y media de distancia, cerca del aeropuerto, antes de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa. Fue educado, respetuoso y amable. Se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos durante todo el trayecto. Rápido y directo. Recomiendo esta empresa, ya que encontrar un transporte solo de ida de Tulum a Cancún no es fácil ni barato, y esta empresa ofrece un excelente servicio a un gran precio. Definitivamente los volveré a usar cuando esté en la zona de Cancún/Tulum. Gracias, Daytrip y Gonzalo.”
“Marianna nos recogió para llevarnos de Heraclión a Chania. El clima era terrible y, debido a esto, Marianna llegó unos minutos tarde. Me contactó para avisarme. Marianna vive en Chania y hizo que nuestro viaje fuera muy interesante al contarnos sobre cosas locales para hacer y ver en Chania. Marianna es una conductora segura y todos nos sentimos cómodos con la velocidad a la que conducía y lo bien que manejó bajo la fuerte lluvia. Es una persona encantadora y habla inglés con fluidez. Recomendamos mucho a Daytrip, y si estás en Heraclión o Chania, asegúrate de pedir a Marianna.”
“Utilicé el servicio para ir de Luxor a Hurghada, Egipto. Ahmed H fue nuestro conductor y fue perfecto. El coche era nuevo, estaba limpio, tenía agua y aperitivos para nosotros, y acomodó nuestras paradas. Gran servicio de su parte y lo recomendaría.”
“Usamos Daytrip para dos trayectos en México, y ambos fueron geniales. Muy cómodos, y llegamos a cada destino a una excelente hora. Ambos conductores fueron increíbles, y nos sentimos muy seguros. Uno de nuestros conductores, Miguel, también puso la mejor música. Definitivamente usaremos Daytrip en nuestro próximo viaje a México.”

“No sabíamos qué esperar de este viaje y reservamos desde Australia. Inicialmente buscábamos una forma fácil de viajar de Granada a Málaga. Decidimos no perder la oportunidad de ver algo más en nuestro camino. Miguel ciertamente superó nuestras expectativas. Su inglés era excelente (lamentablemente hablamos muy poco español), y fue muy amable y servicial. Disfrutamos mucho escuchando sobre las regiones por las que pasamos y también discutiendo algunas de las costumbres locales. Miguel nos llevó a Antequera como estaba planeado y se aseguró de que pudiéramos conseguir fácilmente nuestras entradas para las atracciones sin ninguna prisa. Nos recogieron y dejaron puntualmente y realmente disfrutamos nuestro viaje. Esperamos volver a España y poder usar este servicio nuevamente en algún momento.”
“Utilizamos el servicio dos veces mientras estábamos en Tailandia. Servicio al cliente extremadamente rápido y eficiente. La mejor tarifa ofrecida en Chiang Mai para los viajes. Conductores educados, puntuales, profesionales y que hablan inglés. Vehículos limpios y cómodos. Siendo un visitante habitual de Tailandia, este fue, sin duda, el mejor servicio. Muy satisfecho con la empresa. Espero que mantenga la excelencia del servicio que nos brindaron.”
