Top Arcachon Private and Luxury

Once a tiny fishing village, Arcachon transformed into a thriving seaside resort in just a century, where golden beaches meet grand Belle Époque villas. The town is uniquely divided into four neighborhoods, one for each season. On this self-guided walking tour through the sparkling Summer City and the elegant Winter City, you’ll discover the town’s history, local flavors, and hidden corners. The tour starts at Place Thiers, a square right by the beach, before following the town’s wooden pier, Jetée Thiers, where you’ll hear about Arcachon’s oyster farming legacy. You’ll explore the charming streets of La Ville d’Été (the Summer City), home to Arcachon’s magnificent market and trendy fashion outlets. In Ville d’Hiver, Arcachon’s historic Winter City, opulent villas tell the story of the town’s transformation. The tour ends in Parc Mauresque, a lush retreat that’s perfect for unwinding or enjoying a picnic with the treats you picked up along the way.

The city of Arcachon is divided into 4 districts: the summer city including the center, the winter city with 19th-century villas, autumn city with ports and spring city with its sandy beaches. Take a walk in the summer city and enjoy the lively atmosphere of streets full of restaurants, painters and cafés. Contemplate the stunning facade of the Casino and the gorgeous square "Place des Marquises". Climb to the Parc Mauresque for a beautiful panoramic view of the city. The park will take you to Arcachon's winter district, which has been designated as the most beautiful. Admire the wonderful facades of the huge eccentric villas from the 19th century. Stroll down the calm, green streets that contrast with the animated city center. Learn about the history of Arcachon from your guide and customize this private tour according to your own preferences.
