The company
Who are we?
River cruise company in Bordeaux specializing in gastronomy and wine tourism
A passion: the Garonne River
With over 10 years of experience in navigation, we take pleasure in inviting you to sail and travel to the rhythm of the tides and the flavors of Southwest France. Thanks to a team of Bordeaux locals passionate about the Garonne, we welcome many passengers each year aboard our red-painted boats.
Located in the heart of the Chartrons district, you can't miss our fleet of boats. A must-see for Bordeaux residents, the Sicambre restaurant boat also welcomes visitors from the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region and tourists from elsewhere looking for a unique way to experience Bordeaux.
Embark for a leisurely cruise or a meal.
More than just a trip, experience a timeless journey.

Our environmental values
It is in the kitchen that the Chef selects the finest products from Aquitaine.
The choice to work with seasonal produce aligns perfectly with his commitment to using high-quality, raw ingredients.
Homemade cuisine takes center stage aboard the restaurant boat, and the authentic flavors of Southwest France are deliciously captured on the plate.
On the wine list, Bordeaux wines take center stage, but that's not all! The city and its surroundings are brimming with local gems.
L'Alchimiste roasts its coffee beans in Darwin, and you can savor their aroma on board our boats.
Moon Harbour Whisky is crafted from barley grown on Patiras Island—how could you resist?
And let's not forget the sodas—on board, they're organic thanks to Fizz Sodas!
On the water, we strive every day to minimize our environmental impact.
We have selected local partners who ensure the recycling of cigarette butts and collect our compost.
Thanks to EcoMégot, Mon Petit Seau, and Veolia, we are able to process tons of waste each year.
In 2021, the Sicambre restaurant boat proudly displayed four photovoltaic panels.
Since 2022, the Sicambre has been equipped with eight electric batteries, enabling hybrid navigation. That same year, Les Bateaux Bordelais joined the ATD network, Acteurs du Tourisme Durable (Actors of Sustainable Tourism), as the first boat company: proof that river tourism and sustainable tourism can sail side by side!
