Dordogne Valley, Occitan's Rocamadour & Medieval Châteaux
From the rosé-hued city of Toulouse, cycle through two gorgeous river valleys—the Dordogne and the Lot. Discover a quieter more rural version of France, where the road less traveled looks a lot like a fairy tale. Through dramatic gorges and forested mountains, prehistoric caves and the honey-colored villages of the Périgord, wonder awaits just around the river bend.
Highlights
- Savor Michelin-starred cuisine and wine from the world-renowned Cahors AOC, where the Malbec grape originated
- Bike on riverside routes that meander through prehistoric sites, elegant medieval architecture and several of France’s Most Beautiful Villages
- Experience the World Heritage site of Rocamadour, an iconic cliffside village overlooking the Quercy region
- Visit the limestone caves of Gouffre de Padirac, an underground wonder with subterranean rivers, intricate rock structures and a cathedral-like dome
