Super nice view, that’s all as this s mostly a lil park for kids to run around. The funicular isn’t worth the >1 hour wait but I insisted as I thought I d be able to enjoy the ride, I was wrong. Overall attractions aren’t attractive, and the only hotel restaurant to avoid. There is though a lil bar on the side selling refreshments at half of the prices and queue, if needed rather go there. I mean, it’s a must go but you may be disappointed

Easy level trekking (more like walking), easier if you have car 😁. Loved the views. There is small entrance fee and also the other activities for which you have pay small amount but for one time experience I think it’s okay. It’s best place for kids, the park is full of games and stuff for kids.

Great views and trails but nothing much on the top itself. Enjoy the ride up stopping at the various points along the way.

Nice journey with the funicular to the top of the Igueldo Mountain where you can admire the spectacular view of San Sebastian and enjoy a meal or a coffee.

Monte gluedo its really amazing place

Breathtaking view! Entrance costs 2,50€ per person

Spectacular views of the beaches and San Sebastian.

I loved the size of the beach. Despite the crowds, it never felt overcrowded. If you enjoy proper swimming, you can swim long distances across the width of the beach. There are also several good restaurants within walking distance. Plus, there’s convenient access to public restrooms. I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful beach. Mostly always well kept. Even if you don't like sand is very nice to stroll along just about any time of day.

Fantastic city beach with safe swimming water. There is an arched promenade allowing for shade if needed with young children.

One cannot come to San. Sebastian and not come to the beach. For goodness sake, this is the paradise part of SS. Full of people but ALWAYS enough space for everyone. Amazing and a must come for the sunshine!

Very beautiful in picture beach in the centre of Saint Sebastian. I really love my visit to the spot. Lots of people enjoying the weather and the scenic view. Around the beach area, there is plenty to see, including tourist attractions and spots to enjoy refreshments and food.

As far as I can tell it is no less than the most beautiful city beach or bay in Europe. Of course you have to be lucky with the weather, as on hot days it feels like the whole city is digging through the sand. The huge dimensions only become clear on a walk or a drive up one of the two hills (Monte Igueldo or Urgull). It is a little unusual that there is so little catering right on the promenade.

Stunning city beach! Great moment for a nice walk at the beach a few meters only from the city center. Definitely a place to be in this city

This place is great. But how do you get there? I found get to Arguedas and follow the signs easiest. It’s not complicated. The roads are more track than tarmac but perfectly fine for cars. You could also enter via El Paso, but it’s not so well signposted. From Arguedas it’s a straight track until you reach the army base, where you turn left. Don’t mistake the first ‘stack’ as the iconic photo. Travel 2 km up the track and there’s a clear stopping place where you can get out and have a 360 degree view once you’ve climbed the easy path. Then continue on for another 2 km and you’ll reach the classic photo stack which has plenty of parking space. To get out you can keep going, left out of the car park or simply do it all again in reverse back to Arguedes.

The park is beautiful. It almost feels like you are in the American wild west. Stunning landscapes and a couple of vista points to observe and take photos from.

Really nice environment and change of scenery. The area is wide, but there are roughy 3 or 4 nice mountains/cliffs that have a 'canyon/desert' look and feel. Good to reach by car. Nice for holiday pictures and experience. There are no shops in the area, so take water (and snacks if you like) with you.

It is an otherworldly landscape that feels like a forgotten planet, making it a truly magnificent place to visit. Driving through its wild, empty roads is a unique and liberating experience that perfectly captures the spirit of adventure. It's a must-see who is around that place.

Wonderful desert with impressive scenery. Parking lot next to it. Was easy to access. I have a feeling that the most beautiful during the sunset

Incredible lunar landscape exploration ... take a car, turn on the Kiss Radio, and sing with your best friend. There tou go : a magic lifetime moment ! A must seen european place ☀️

Stunning natural park with landscape that has you think you are in a western. The information centre is very helpful and the 30 odd kilometre loop gives you stunning views all the way

Nice outcrop from the headland over a cool bridge. Was great the day we visited as it was after a storm so the seas were quite wild and waves crashing along the shore which made it more special. Not much to do there other than stroll out to it and admire the views. As your in Biarritz check it out and walk on from there through the streets to the port and palace beach

A very nice vantage point to see the miramar beach and plage de la Côte des Basque. Very nice views during sunset. Adventurous swimmer and divers often jump up from here to the sea.

A delightful place to reach with a short nice walk and to enjoy at sunset. Surely there are always tons of tourists, but still, the place is attractive and full of photo opportunities.

Great place. Must see in Biarritz. You can fee the power of the ocean. Picturesqe place for a romantic walk. Beautiful sunsets, great sunglight of the sunrise as well. Have a great walk!

Beautiful spot. Biarritz has blown me away with its location, scenery and blend with the sea

Amazing view of the beach and the sea, sometimes there was an artist who was selling the paintings for cheap, and there are paid telescopes. The waves sometimes are huge and can splash over the ledge, so be careful! Video from the Autumn.

Great place to view the coast of biarritz with many amenities nearby

Fantastic aquarium,bought tickets online to safe the queue.Loved seals being fed ,one wee naughty one 😆. Well worth the money ,really enjoyed it. Perhaps a buggy park somewhere to save congestion when busy might help .

Fantastic aquarium- however we didn’t realise there was no parking at the actual a aquarium (because of where it is located) so don’t just put it into google maps without planning a car park first. The a aquarium itself was really well laid out and in two separate buildings. Some amazing fish and the jelly fish were spectacular. And my kids loved seeing the turtles and hammer head sharks. Also take time to appreciate the amazing art work and how it was created. Would throughly recommend.

Great museum with lots of fun jellyfish, octopus, seals, sharks and turtles as well as fun fish. Well curated, but a bit expensive at 46 eur for two adults and a kid.

It was a good aquarium with some very pretty jellyfish and seals. The other attractions were quite interesting too. Missing 1 star because they let too many people in at a time, we were crammed in like sardines.

The aquarium offers a decent variety of marine life, with the large shark tank being a highlight, providing an impressive view. I highly recommend a visit. However, the seal tank had noticeable algae growth, giving us a cloudy view. The seals are fed twice a day, once in the morning and again in the evening, so I recommend timing your visit for one of the feedings to enhance your experience.

My kid is almost two and he love it! Is not huge is big enough to spend 2 hours on it and is walkable for kids. They have a lot of sharks and spaces to sit and enjoy the fishes. A snack space, seals, turtles and a beautiful view. It was not super full so you can enjoy it with the stroller with not a problem.

The only downside is that they do the seal feeding fully in French. I didn’t understand a single word. But my experience with the place was very positive. Really enjoyed the effort they put into this park. And the ticket price is worth it for sure; even it’s just to see the shark tanks, or hang out with Izar and Charlie.

We combined a trip to Bordeaux with this so ended here at the beginning of the evening (at 18:00). We parked not at the formal entrance, but a bit down the road where we had to walk between the bushes and made a steep climb onto the dune. Challenging! But the view is amazing and coming there in the evening gives very nice pictures with the sunset (and it's not so crowded). We swam for a short while and went back before it got dark. The way down is much faster ;-)

Rising over 100 m above the Bassin d’Arcachon, Europe’s tallest sand dune and natural colossus draws nearly two million visitors each year. Families climb its soft flank for sweeping views across forest and ocean, while removable staircases and marked paths channel footfall to reduce erosion. At peak times, up to 17,000 people ascend daily, and archaeologists descend to preserve prehistoric revelations. Recognised as a Grand Site National since 1978, it is both geological wonder and leisure magnet, shaped by four millennia of wind and time.

An unforgettable natural wonder — the Dune du Pilat near Arcachon is the largest sand dune in Europe and absolutely stunning. It’s easy to access, yet feels like stepping into another world. If you want to see something truly extraordinary just beyond your doorstep, this is the place to go!

Great views of the surrounding countryside. Be ready for a good climb if you want to reach the top though as there are plenty of steps to navigate, make sure you have some comfy footwear. The parking is €7, but that also covers the cost of the visit for as long as you want, so it was very good value for money. The parking areas are also very shaded so your car won’t be an oven when you return from your travels. It was busy when we visited, but as the fine is so large it didn’t feel overcrowded.

We passed by on our route to Bilbao - what a stop, what an impressive piece of landscape. Well organized with a beautiful wooden tourist „village“!!

If in area this is a must see! This is one long 2km dune along the coast. It seems so out of place. The view from the top of the dune overlooking the bay is stunning. There is one set of stairs to assist with your climb.

Do I still need to introduce the majestic Dune of Pilat, the highest dune in Europe, which continues to amaze me years after years with its immensity and breathtaking landscapes ? Dominating the entrance to the Arcachon Bay, it stretches over 500 meters wide, reaches nearly 102 meters high and offers a spectacular panorama. From its summit, the view takes in the Atlantic Ocean, the Landes forest, the Cap-Ferret peninsula, the Banc d'Arguin and the bay. This masterpiece of nature, fragile and in perpetual movement, moves each year from one to five meters towards the forest, grain by grain, testifying to thousands of years of history and the incredible dynamics of the elements. Reaching this exceptional site is now facilitated by modern and well-designed facilities. A new cycle path leads to the site's entrance, and a pedestrian axis designed as a promenade crosses the reception area, inviting you to stroll before undertaking the climb. It can also be reached by bus or even by boat, making the Dune a destination accessible to all. Since summer 2023, the completely renovated reception area offers cultural and restaurant shops open year-round, and a seasonal staircase, installed from April to October, allows you to gently climb the dune from the back while preserving this natural site. Once at the top, the magic happens. At low tide, the sandbanks reveal heavenly hues, particularly the Banc d'Arguin National Nature Reserve, which stretches below. In summer, the Dune of Pilat attracts many visitors ; to fully enjoy the tranquility of the place, it is best to come early in the morning or at the end of the day. The golden hours of sunrise and sunset offer unique moments where the light enhances every detail of the landscape ! In summer, sunset walks are particularly popular for experiencing a moment outside of time. Hikes, storytelling walks, and educational workshops also enrich the visitor experience. Listed nationally and included in the Réseau des Grands Sites de France (Great Sites of France), the Dune of Pilat is exemplarily managed by the Syndicat Mixte de la Grande Dune du Pilat, in partnership with the Conservatoire du Littoral (Coastal Protection Agency). These preservation and development efforts ensure a balance between welcoming the public and protecting the natural environment. The revenue from parking is entirely reinvested in the management of the site : waste collection, naturalist monitoring and free environmental education tools ... This great lady of sand, witness to history and natural forces, continues to fascinate with its movement, its scale and the diversity of the landscapes it dominates. A visit to the Dune of Pilat is the assurance of an unforgettable encounter with an exceptional site, constantly evolving, in the heart of the Arcachon basin ...

A very interesting walk around the neighbourhood looking at all the old mansions. If you have any interest in period architecture, you'll love looking at these houses.

Dont miss to walk around this place. The Houses (“Villas”) have a particular hybride style. It’s a mixing of different times, places and architectural styles so the result is quite eclectical. Most of this houses were built mainly at the end of the XVIII siecle.

A short walk from Arcachon train station.

Interesting looking at these kate 1800 - early 1900 buildings albeit many are understandably behind hedges and walls

Very nice part with old villas.

Very nice residential area in Arcachon! Plenty of nice Villas! Good for a 2 hours walk

Fabulous area to walk around away from the tourist beaches. Quiet streets with lots of interesting large houses, many well preserved and maintained. Plenty of benches to stop and rest while wandering around. Also several nice parks in the vicinity.

It's cool, and quick to see, but a big part of the castle is not accessible.

Beautiful house to look round, a sign in English in every room, the guide that takes you round is all in French but was still excellent! And good value at 7 euros per person

It's a great chateau! We would have enjoyed it more if there were a guided tour in English. We could not visit the chateau without a private tour, and they were all in French. I speak Portuguese and Spanish, but that didn't help at all while trying to understand the guide! I want to learn French so I don't miss anything like this again!!! The staff was great and I highly recommend the visit!

Nice for a guided tour. Refurbished in the 19th century. Birthplace of Henry the 4th.

The castle exterior is fabulous. Unfortunately, we were unable to tour the inside as we did not know that the first Sunday of the month is free entry and they had reached their maximum at 4:00 pm. No doubt it would have been a great visit.

Renewed castle nicely equipped with newer and older furniture, tapestries, curtains. Nice to see. Admission is 10 eur and only in guided groups (app. 10-25 people) but all guidance is in French. There are plaques with basic inscriptions in French. English and Spanish.

A very beautiful place and very important for visiting in pau. It's so nice, Their guide explains very well... You can feel the short history of Henry IV and his childhood Just in the weekend it is very important to know about their time because of the numbers of visitors maybe you have to wait a lot.

The 'water mirror' opposite of the bourse buildings is awesome! Such an excellent idea! This artist may get followers and copy cats all over the globe. The water is refreshing, makes the public happy and relaxed, allows kids to enjoy a city visit and provides poor citizens with a place where they can mingle with everyone else in a relaxed way. It also gives enough water for great flowers and the gardens/park pieces next to the water mirror. And, when quiet, the reflection doubles the grandeur of the bourse buildings. Best place of Bordeaux in my opinion.

I visited Place de la Bourse in Bordeaux at night and it was a wonderful experience. The whole area looked magical with the lights reflecting on the beautiful old buildings and the famous water mirror. The fountain and lighting together created a peaceful and charming atmosphere. I spent a few hours just walking around, watching the reflections, and enjoying the calm breeze from the river. The place was lively yet serene — people relaxing, children playing, and tourists taking photos. It’s one of those spots where you can simply sit and take in the beauty of the city. If you are in Bordeaux, an evening visit to Place de la Bourse is a must. It truly captures the heart and elegance of the city.

We loved it! Place de la Bourse is a stunning 18th century square in Bordeaux with elegant façades, the Fountain of the Three Graces, and its famous Water Mirror. A true UNESCO gem.

One of the most beautiful squares in all of Europe! Really really pretty.

Not to crowded for a weekend, free but not to spent lots of time, just for a picture and to appreciate the city

Beautiful place, history and present, in the same spot

To better appreciate the combination of building and water mirror best yime to visit is early evening

Fascinating creation right next to the river. You can see a clear reflection of people and buildings, if it is not too windy. They have two different exhibitions, a mist spray followed by about 2cm deep of water coming up from the bottom.

The Miroir d'eau is just a playground with sprinkles. It is right next to the promenade at the river and across the street from the Place de la Bourse, not in front it, as appearing in the touristic brochures. The thin layer of water creates a reflective surface for the sky or Place de la Bourse buildings across the street. Popular water playground with children and to sit around to cool down in the warmer months or as a gorgeous, instagramable setting for pictures during the day or at night.

An interesting location and use of water in a public space. Unfortunately the day we were in Bordeaux it was windy. The evening was calmer and allowed for some good reflections.

Such a great idea, simple that created a beautiful landscape. Reflecting the surrouding, the sky, the activities of people. Big playground for everyone especially kids 🥳

The Water Mirror in Bordeaux is deceptively simple yet magical. Its charm lies in the cyclical transformation it undergoes, the water functions as a perfect mirror, then a gentle fog is released across the surface creating a dream-like ambiance.

Beautiful place excellent for cooling your feet on a hot day. Amazing photo opportunities. Lovely walk along the river.

What's not to like? Highly recommend removing shoes and socks and paddling around in it. It was refreshing on a day that was in the high 30s in degrees. We spent over an hour paddling and splashing and people watching. Definitely take a visit

Hard to fault this place. I visited around 6 years ago and it’s only got better. A comprehensive tale of world wine history. A good tasting on the 8th floor featuring international wines. I tried a Swiss wine that was new to me. There are lockers to hold bags as you wander. Excellent easy to use audio guide. A good Bodega. Prices are not crazy they cater for all tastes.

La Cité du Vin is an absolute must-visit in Bordeaux — more than a museum, it’s a full sensory journey into the world of wine. The interactive exhibits are beautifully designed, combining history, culture, and tasting experiences in a modern, engaging way. You can easily spend hours exploring and still discover something new. The architecture itself is stunning, with its flowing, glassy curves reflecting the Garonne. Don’t miss the panoramic tasting room at the top — the view is spectacular. A brilliant tribute to wine culture, innovation, and pleasure.

LOVED this amazing museum!! It had the most immersive experience including aroma generator technology that I did not know existed. You can smell the aromas of a myriad of scents that are produced from wines, cognac, liquors, and champagne. And the production, service, and industry is covered at great detail. Fun for everyone of all ages. And the ticket provides for two samples on the 8th floor with spectacular views! The restaurant food is excellent, with both vegetarian and meat, seafood offerings. The desserts are amazing! Love the model and the story behind this innovative museum created from a competition around 2010.

Cité du Vin wine museum offers a fascinating journey through the history and culture of winemaking. The exhibits are well-curated, blending tradition with interactive displays. It’s the perfect place for wine enthusiast. After the exhibits, you can go to the 8th floor to enjoy a panoramic view of the Garonne river in Bordeaux while tasting your favourite wine.

Highly recommended to visit! They share wine knowledge in a fun and interactive way. You can easily spend 2–3 hours there without even noticing the time. A super interesting place if you love wine! We went on a Monday, and it was still fairly busy. Probably best to avoid weekends!

It's a highly informative and beautifully interactive museum. Make sure to try the wine tasting on the top floor—the view is beautiful, but the wines are average. If you have two days or more in Bordeaux, this place is definitely a must-visit.

Whether you are a wine drinker or not. This is by far one of the most interactive museums you could go to. Well priced and super modern. It has Something for everyone. Plus the tickets can come with wine for before or after visit, this area showcases great views of the city. The wine shop they have is also a big plus. Some fantastic local and imported wines.

Beautoful ship, too bad they were fixing it when we came so we couldn't see the whole of it. Also, everything is in French - no English translation

Disappointing! No boat! At least not that we could see. Lots of interesting sub-museums each with own entry fee > €10 Made the mistake of arriving and looking at the town first with cafe in lovely square only to find that the museums were all closing in half an hour for a 2 hour lunch! Decided to go the Leclerc and go back to the caravan. Was so good had lunch in the supermarket if that isn’t sad! Great sandwich beer and wine. Rochefort - tick!!

We had a wander round in the mid-afternoon, it was great to see a tall ship that had clearly been lovingly reconstructed. Unfortunately, partly due to the size of our group, the cost of guided tours were a little more than we were willing to stomach. However, just the setting it's in and the surrounding area is well worth a look.

Stunning place. The Versailles of the maritime world. So glad we made the effort to visit. The city is small and delightful. A place for a culture fix for sure.

Rochefort surprised me as a so historical town. At each street corner an old place reminds you Lafayette, Napoleon or other war part of French naval history. The Hermione is a so large vessel, impressive with the masts, the inside deck, .... all is so fantastic a must see... and what is you are lucky to see her taking the see

An amazing place to visit, plenty to do and see and explore. Take your time and stay a whole day to explore it.

Beautiful boat, what a pity that they don't have English information. Also, they could perhaps change the tents and have some permanent building. The temperature in the tents was unbearable.

The food was good. The show, if you haven't seen it is good. But I have to say not as good as two years ago The interior is looking tired.

Was a good night out, lots going on good food and service. My only criticism would be the comedian acting disabled / shy, it came over to me as making fun of people with disabilities, although I’m sure this wasn’t the intention. I’d probably suggest he tones that down a bit as to be sure not to offend. Overall a very entertaining night, very colourful and spectacular with sequins everywhere !

Excellent

Great show good food and a good atmosphere

Top

Excellent spectacle

Tip top 👍

Amazing history and architecture! This little town was established around 800AD. Every road is cobblestone so wear flat shoes with good grip. Try to see everything in this area. This is one of the oldest wine growing regions in the world.

This is an absolutely wonderful piece of medieval architecture, and a real glimpse into the life of a hermit and his followers. The tour is wonderful and takes you on a journey from the small cave in which St Emilion to the mic. Church carved out of the rock by his followers and the devout. No photographs are allowed, but they’re plenty online. This is a fantastic tour and a must if you are going to st Emilion

Best thing to do/see in town + not a rip off (unlike most things in saint emilion) You get given a key from the information desk and sent on your way. They only let a few people in at a time (around 6) so it’s not crowded at all! Make sure to go up the tower when you’re visiting!

I recommend getting the guided tour, it is worthwhile if you are in Saint-Emilion. Guide is available in many languages and goes through 4 different sections. The underground part is quite the spectacle. The workers were helpful and very knowledgeable on the church.

Historical & landmark Church in Saint-Emilion This is a fantastic medieval building in the town center of St. Emilion. Beautiful architecture well worth your time to visit regardless of if you are religious or not. We really enjoyed visiting this village probably one of the nicest in this region, and this church is high on the little of amazing building you can see & visit.

A fascinating place but for someone a bit unsteady on their feet the paths and roads are made with pebbles and are very uneven.

Interesting place to visit. We went as part of a vineyard tour.

Périgueux Cathedral Cathédrale Saint-Front de Périgueux September 2025: A portion of the Cathedral is under renovation, but it's still a magestic structure. The gift shop is really nice, too.

Really enjoyed this place... interesting how at on3 stage mosques and cathedrals looked pretty similar... and we're often converted one way or the other. The cloister was nice and relaxing. Shame you couldnt climb up to see the views.

Stunning building both inside and out, beautiful wooden carved structures and of course a chance to light a candle for quiet reflection and to remember those who've we lost. Worth a visit.

Beautiful building which is the focal point for much of the city. They did have English information pamphlets but they were quite short. If you want to know more I would recommend using Google Lens to translate the French signs as they are much more informative. One last thing to mention is that the wooden sculpture can be illuminated by putting in some money at the side. This took us 20 minutes to realise.

It's a beautiful historical cathedral! It's worth spending some time here exploring the whole place. We love the cathedral gift shop, especially the lady there is really 😍 💕 lovely and amazing 👏 in her customer service and gift 🎁 wrapping ❤️ (*payment by cash only) highly recommended 😀 for visiting

A cathédrale. Beautiful, but nothing special

Beautifully and interesting architectural for this cathedral. I love the structure and the look of the cathedral outside more than inside. Amazingly calculated designed. These buildings are located in the centre of Périgueux and Saint Front Cathedral has been classed as a French Historical Monument (monument historique) since 1840. The sight is impressive upon arriving into town. Definitely worth a visit when you are in Périgueux.

We visited this cave with our family. It is off season so we did not need to make reservations. Please note that there are limited places to enter the cave. We came by car. There was plenty of parking and free. There are time slots that you can enter the cave under supervision. So keep that in mind. But if you have to wait for your lock you don't have to be bored. There is a playground, water attributes and a terrace, inside you can get something to drink. Before you enter the cave you first watch a movie where the history of the cave is playfully depicted, it was in French when we were there. Then walk to the cave. It is a lot cooler inside the cave though, keep that in mind. Inside the cave you walk down a path then you arrive at the top of the cave and you can look down. At this balustrade you first watch a light and sound show inside the cave. Then you get a tour of the cave and are told all kinds of things. As a finale, you get to see another show with music. It's a nice outing to do if you're in the area.

The tour starts with a movie that explains how it was discovered. Great for families. The tour is then guided down into the cavern and English guide headsets are available. Overall it's very well done with lights and dramatic music. The English guide was less entertaining and informative than the French tour guide who worked the crowd.

Disneyland is less commercial than this. It's just one single space where you are stuck between your group of 50 and the next. You have to watch the same light show twice. Not worth it.

We visited this cave on a very hot day (35C) and the underground coolness was most welcome. Remember to pick up a free audio set before you set off: otherwise you will miss out on all the fascinating details. It's worth booking in advance because it was filling up quickly when we got there. The light show does a great job of highlighting the rock formations in turn.

Start with an introvideo was fun. Tour through the cave was about an hour. Tour (headphone) in dutch was offered and welkome. We booked in advance and took a tour with entry in the basket. That was so fun, highly recommend it, but you need to book far in advance.

Beautiful destination. Our children 10 and 12 were fascinated.

The cave is beautiful but the English audio system was not working and that limited the experience

Amazing place. Stunning building. History every where. Full of great little Restarant’s and shops.

Sarlat is very beautiful. Easy to park close and costs around 4 euro for 17hrs!! August 2022. Lots of street performers and restaurants. Quite busy but not overly. I would definitely come back again

Cool medieval town in Perigord, worth a visit for a day or more.

Nice authentic old village in Périgord. A little over touristy at time.

Beautiful town

Very interesting medieval center with lots of historical building to be seen in a very small area ... not to be missed

(Translated by Google) Facades and alleyways steeped in history! Magnificent setting 🤩 One drawback: the paid parking. But once you've parked, all that's left to do is stroll around as you please! Without experiencing the summer atmosphere, in November there isn't much to do on a Saturday night… perhaps I didn't know the right places? (Original) Façades et ruelles chargée d’histoire ! Magnifique cadre 🤩 un bémol : les parkings payants. Mais une fois le véhicule garé, il ne reste qu’à flâner selon votre humeur ! Sans connaître l’ambiance estivale, au mois de novembre, il n’y a pas grand chose à faire un samedi soir… peut-être n’avais je pas les bonnes adresses ?

You must visit this place! Truly awesome inspiring to witness this replica of the original cave. Excellent tour in English too. The guides really do inject a sense of wonder into the tour! Highly recommend this place. Photos cannot do it justice.

Well worth the visit with English spoken tour guide (24 August 1.30pm). The tour was extremely informative and inspiring. We were awestruck by the creativity of early man. We totally understand why there was a re-creation, and this did not detract from the tour.

After consulting the online site, I bought 4 tickets to view Lascaux II Cave exhibit. The online information mentioned the tour was available in 5 different languages, but we were disappointed to find out the tour was only available in French. This diminished our experience considerably. Our tour guide, although was very animated and was very expressive in his presentation making sure to engage the many school aged children in attendance. I would make the effort to see this exhibit again, if we travel to France from Vancouver, Canada. But we would ask to have a way to listen to the presentation in English.

Very interesting and informative. Our guide explained the history and theory behind the cave drawings, answered all questions with precise answers with some added humor. He also catered his explanations to the children to make sure the understood. Highly recommend.

The Smaller cave made for a more personal Lascaux experience. Our guide was charming and knowledgeable. Perhaps a few less people in the group would mean less “chatter” ! Under 20 persons, might be preferable for all. People with walkers, imbalance and hearing loss are less likely to enjoy the group experience and should be warned!

Excellent experience! Our English guide was really engaging and very informative.

We were initially unsure about the Lascaux II tour due to some underwhelming reviews mentioning restrictions like no photos and cramped conditions at the entrance and exit of the replica cave. However, we were pleasantly surprised by our experience—it was truly worth it. We joined the English-speaking group led by the excellent guide, Ludivine, who went above and beyond to make the tour memorable. Unlike typical guides who simply recite dates and state ‘dry’ facts, Ludivine engaged us with her improvisation and interactive style. She is a very good storyteller. Even our kids found the tour captivating; it was far from boring and truly entertaining. Leaving the caves, we couldn't stop discussing about our impressions from the tour/ And the facts we learned - first humans in Europe, ochre -manganese paintings, tarpans, lions, aurochs, symbols, fragility of limestone caves, etc. Definitely recommend

I was truly speechless when I saw this nearly 700-year-old bridge. Its history and architectural beauty are simply breathtaking. We took our time walking around it to admire it from every angle, appreciating the stunning bridge.

This bridge is absolutely beautiful and amazing to see how high this is too. Also encountered a very friendly cat. It’s all free to visit and there are free parking spaces about 5 minute walk away.

Take your time to look at more than the bridge, the museum is well worth a visit and it's well worth looking around. It would be good walking country, but not in the heat.

I loved my walk and visit to this lovely medieval stone Bridge with its nice views down the river and the surrounding hillsides. Its very close to the town and has plenty of walking path from either side of the river Lot. The bridge is in great condition and well maintained. Highly recommend.

Just incredible and so well preserved! I recommend you visit this place after sunset to appreciate it when all lit up and reflecting on the water below!

Absolutely beautiful bridge, stunning views from it either side and free to visit. Highly recommend

Aire in the the town only has 3 bays, suitable for small vans. Large car park ,about 15 mins walk to bridge. Can stay overnight but very basic and shared with cars.

This is a 'must see', as both a unique war memorial and, more importantly, the saddest most haunting place I've ever seen, with lessons for us all. You need at least 2 hours to visit, and it is not a place to let kids run around or for adults to be noisy or lark about. You can see the ruins for free, but to see the Memorial Museum you have to pay - it is worth it though if you have the time. Free car park, toilets. Cafes nearby in rebuilt village.

If you’re arriving in a vehicle more than 2.15m high you’ll need to park either in one of the designated ´payant’ places or in the car park nearest to the village as there is a height restriction. I parked about 50m up the road from the visitor centre in a ‘payant’ parking place. €4 provides for 4 hours. The preserved village is free to enter but I’d recommend doing the historical tour with an audio guide (unless you’re fluent in French) first. Entry to the Historical and ´Objects’ exhibition is just €9 for the two and very good value at that. Once you have the background history, the experience of walking around this scene of such tragic devastation some 80+ years after it happened, is beyond modern day comprehension. It is deeply moving. One can only be grateful for the relative peace and security we are fortunate enough to live in. May the 643 souls who perished at the hands of such barbarism live on forever. Viva la France! 🇫🇷

Stunning and very sobering visit. Wear good walking shoes for your visit. Some good cafes in the new town and a super u!

An exceptional and essential place of memory. Deeply moving: the simple objects - splashback tiles in a cafe kitchen, crushed tables and chairs, cars, and the silent church where so many innocent ones died - makes it deeply moving. Most visitors show respect and keep silent.

It was an emotional visit for me. Oradour was such an alive village just hours before the Nazi's arrived, like so many villages today that we have lived in and stayed in here in France. It is haunting to see how quickly ones world can change. A very powerful reminder of how cruel humans can be and how vigilant we must all be to prevent the resurgence of this type of evil.

Deeply moving. I'm lost for words. It's so important to remember the atrocities of history and the innocent who lost their lives in the attack on Oradour in 1944. The exhibition honours them well.

Well worth a visit. The Memorial / museum was not open when we went undergoing renovation.

Beautiful religious place. It does get very crowded however. Still the scenery is beautiful and the energy holds something special.

An amazing Pilgrimage Church built against a cliff, which resides the famous Black Madonna. From here you can also follow the stations of the cross too the summit of the hill.

Worth probably the visit once in your life during off peak hours to avoid the crowds side of the site, though you have to pay for everything : parking, entrance, lift etc ... and what about these shops and so-called restaurants ? Nothing to do with faith or pilgrimage

Absolute stunning attraction. Visited a few view points and the interior is stunning and awesome. Shops are interesting too. Took a train ride from the bottom to the top. It's very squeeze for the vehicles but all in all, it's worth it. Have an ice cream before you leave.

Such a stunning place. The buildings are all built into the cliffs. There is a lift or stairs to take you up there. I believe the lift cost 2euros one way but I'm not 100% sure.

This place has his own aura. It's impressive when you look up and see the castle on the top of the "hill". And when you take a look to the overall, it seems like a place took from a fairy tale. It has an elevator to move to the top or the bottom, but it cost around 4€. Even so, I recommend walking to discover all the smalls secrets hidden in this place

Last year, when I walk GR65 from Le Puy-en-Velay to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port I have, accidentally, visit this unbelievable graceful place. I'm Catholic priest so I put attention to the quietness and peacefulness of particular place of prayer. I can say that the calmness and quietness of this place estonished me. Of course I'm not talking about "upper" church but about chapel underneath the place of tourists. I highly recommend this place for everyone who is seeking for the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Mother Immaculate Mary. God bless everyone+

Great experience. Very well organised and very informative. Lots of steps but there is the option of a lift. Boat ride along the underground stream is great. Wear a raincoat as there is some dripping water although a lot of effort has been made to minimise this.

Had been waiting to go here for a while and so glad I did. It's a bit of a windy drive to get there, and parking is pretty chaotic, but it's definitely worth the effort. A whole underground world awaits you: A giant chasm; a lovely boat trip along a subterranean river; waterfalls, lakes, enormous stalactites; and a section that opens up to reveal a chamber with a 90m high ceiling. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the infrastructure is exceptional there. Tips: Book tickets in advance. We went on a cold, rainy day in October and were surprised to see how busy it was. Parking is free, but a bit of a hunt was necessary. It's a steady 13 degrees in there, so warm, waterproof clothing & shoes required. Also, use the toilets before you enter as there are none in there! Have fun!

A true wonder in this world. The Gouffre de Padirac is really something else. You will get a beautiful unexpected surprise through all this beautiful adventure to the center of the earth. Naturally crafted through time, this is the perfect place for families and friends to spend a beautiful day to remember. Enjoy...

Simply magnificent. The caves are very beautiful with many fantastic photo opportunities. Buy your tickets in advance so that you won't be disappointed. Free parking is available but limited but the paid parking lot is inexpensive.

Absolutely beautiful caves you can walk through with a short boat ride. My only recommendation for those visiting the area, don't go after walking down from visiting the château at Rocamadour or your legs will be like jelly. If you want to see everything that's there, it's probably best to just make a day of it.

An absolute must-visit attraction if you are in the Dordogne region. It was an hour and a half of pure fun and adventure that was well worth the price. The way this attraction is structured is very well-organized and I appreciate how accessible it is for all kinds of people. The cave formations are stunning and grand and must be seen to believe. I was not expecting the sheer scale of this cave and was blown away. Furthermore, the staff were great and my boat guide in particular was very friendly and willing to answer any questions I had about the cave. Highly, highly recommend visiting this place.

Incredible. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit particularly the boat ride even deeper into the cave. This place is vast and totally mind blowing!!! A lot of steps (but there is a lift if you need it).

I love it, and go there every year. I love the show on horses there and real life Merida-style archery and fights. I recommend !

Enjoyed our first time visit to this castle. Fun re-enactment with jousting and story; all in French. The tour was nice, and able to understand using tech (Google translate). Fun experience exploring on our own. Beautiful views of the surrounding area. Was worth the price. If hungry after exploring, I recommend having a pizza before leaving the area, at the Le Picotin.

Nice place if you have kids probably. Entrance fee on the website said €11 but it was €12,50

Amazing experience with kids. The exposition is very well made and the decor helps you to immerse fully into medieval times. The theatre was great with music and fighting, my 4 kids loved it!

Pretty unique, old castle. Lots of old looking devices (a crow cage used for torture for example) and rooms that show how people used to live during the times. There are some small explanations and not too many rooms to see, but just enough and well worth the visit. Look for the little pony and donkey near the bottom!

Castle worth seeing (kids under 10 free adylts €9) but make sure you go on the day there is a show. Great show (45minutes) in French with horses and knights.

Brilliant castle with much to see. Excellent animations. Very friendly receptionist. Great views.

The parc is nice with lots of 3D and dynamic activities, BUT I was hoping for more information on the actual volcanoes in Auvergne. There is 1 rather tatty display. I wanted to know how tall the volcanoes were, who lived in the area then and now, how it shapes the local agriculture, etc. This parc could be set anywhere else (like nearby a town with actual lodging and public transportation) and you wouldn't see the difference.

Very interesting and instructive park, the kids loved the roller coaster but also all the 2, 3 and 4D movies. Too bad some shows were not opened yet due to French holidays not having started yet.

Very informative and interesting place to learn about the earth's surface, space, volcanoes and a whole lot more. There were shows, rides, mini movies, play areas for smalln children etc

A pretty good family day out. You can't go out in France and expect things to not be in French, so plan for that if you don't speak French. There is an audio guide available in other languages but didn't see a lot of the numbers about, it does click in automatically on some displays but doesn't cover the shows (which are all in french, despite some indicating they are french only). Once the language stuff is out the way it's a really interesting place, covers some geology, palentology, astronomy, marine and a bit of local history - plus rides and attractions loosely themed around things people believed in before science explained volcanos and other natural phenomenon. There's a lot of reading and learning content which with my children was hard to get time to cover as there's many more exciting things to do, the shows are great - some are more interactive and fun than others, spelling Icelandic volcanoes was tough but the science demos were great. Well worth a visit if you're in the area and the planetarium (biggest in France apparently) is mind-blowing so prioritise some shows there!

A bit of a confusing experience, expected more. Things I liked: free parking / many activities / lots of staff. Things I didn't like: Everything is in French & French only. The signs, the explination, the instructions in person or in one of the many movies/theatres. I know you can ask an audio guide (which we did) but then it's difficult to know when to start the audio (I was 2mins out of sync in the big theatre. In the "Terre en colère" it is a great idea to have interaction with the dynamic quiz, but again, all in French & French only. Just adding English subtitles on the screens would make a huge improvement. (And I am not British but English seems like a logical choice to be as universal as possible) What I really didn't like: * the limitations for little kids. I know they pay less, but it feels like it doesn't make sense. They can go on rollercoasters from 1,00m height (in other parks I mean of course) but they cannot join you on a vibrating platform that hardly moves. For the "Réveil des géants d’Auvergne" it advertises as a minimum height of 90cm, but when we arrived at the queuing line there was a sign that stated minimum height of 110cm? (after being denied the entrance before at another dynamic animation we didn't care to queue anymore for this and just left). * the online ticket booking: when you visit the website in French you can find combo tickets, promotional packages, ... But when you choose the English version you only get the default ticket options, no price reduction for families or couples like on the French version. So I tried to book via the French version with browser translation, all good until prices suddenly change during the booking process? Ticket adult changed from 27,5€ to 31€, Ticket "enfant" ticket changed form 22,5€ to 26€, the Bambini changed form 7€ to 8€ ?? How and why? My thoughts on this park? If you are French speaking and are more than 110 or 120cm and you like Vulcanoes, then please visit, it will be fun and interesting. Otherwise, I will not advertise this park as a must do at all. From my experience, this was way to expensive for what we got.

The museum has a very interesting and modern architectural concept, with three levels of underground experiences. However, it’s unclear whether it’s meant to be a science museum or an amusement park. As an amusement park, the attractions are quite underwhelming, most of them involve simply watching a screen. It’s also not easy to enjoy if you don’t speak French. Everything only in french. They only give you an audio guide, which is not convenient. The idea of the place is great, but the way it’s done could be much better.

Posting as someone who doesn't understand french. We used the English audio guides as we did for many other french museums. The audio guide was inadequate for the full experience. (1) Many experiences in the park involve live actors or narrators. That's not something that the audio guide could help. (2) some exhibits simply don't have a number for the audio guide. (3) not all shows or movies have translation in the audio guide. Some do. However, the volume of the audio guide is low. So, when there's french in the background, all four of us could not really hear the English. If this is a quiet museum, it might be fine. But with the setting, it didn't work. So, if you don't understand french, don't count on the audio guide.

Great walk up to the top. We parked in the bottom car park which was 1h30 to the top. Started in lovely sunshine and ended up in rain clouds... But still worth the walk. Not for the faint hearted it is a 'proper' walk to the top but absolutely worth it.

Good for the exercise. There is a train for thos who dont want to walk. Going up walking is like 1 hour and a half. Beautifull nature. On the top, the view is incredible. There is a small museum. There are parachutes so you can had that adventure for 100 euros but, you have to reserve before going up. There are some cafés and rest also. Not so cheap.

Puy de Dôme is an amazing place to visit — peaceful, scenic, and full of natural beauty. Standing at the top gives you a calm, refreshing feeling, almost like the whole world slows down for a moment. The 360° views of the volcano chain and Clermont-Ferrand are unforgettable. It’s a perfect spot for nature lovers, photography, or simply relaxing in the fresh mountain air.

Beautiful sunrise. Takes about 45 minutes to walk to the top. Train is not working at present since there are some works going on.

If you come to Clermont Ferrand, visiting the Puy de Dôme is one of the 4 things I advise you to do; The other things are: - going to plateau de gergovie - having a dinner at the restaurant 1513 - if you like hiking/ outdoor activities go the "vallée de chaudefour"= beautifull landscape

Fantastic view, absolutely worth to visit

Endless opportunities for good hikes, picnic, paragliding, snow sports(in winter) and pictures obviously. It can be pretty windy up there, so stay prepared for that. Also the slopes are mostly safe for children's play.

24€/adult for a 1h ride in a cart pulled by a couple of horses to see a handful of bisons, that's quite expensive! The good news is you are contributing to the preservation of european bisons! Food at the restaurant is minimalistic, except for the price: 15€ for a small plate of fish & chips, or ground beef & friends, or sausage & aligot (there is also a small salad, that's the whole menu). Besides that, the ride was enjoyable, bisons chill and the staff was friendly and helpful. Worth about half or 2/3 of current prices IMO. So: don't eat there, and don't spend hours driving there either unless you are desperate to see a few bisons or simply want to support the park.

We travel with kids, 9, 10 and 16 years old. Really nice tour, and lots of information is given during the ride through the park. There is a snack bar with many tables where we can purchase snacks and drinks. A small museum is also right next to it and included in the price. It was a very nice experience.

Impressive animals, must go and visit if you are in the area.

Great place to visit, with an extraordinary nice and passionate staff. Fun guaranteed !!

A fantastic place. Each time I am on holiday in the Herault we will drive 120 miles each way just to visit the bisons. We love the ride with the percheron horses.

I was really surprised as I was not expecting much of this visit but my daughter and I loved it. I recommend it if you like nature and animals.

Nice place, the animals are quite impressive, I spend my lunch time during a long road trip it was a nice break

On top of the hill behind Le Puy, it’s a bit of a climb, but well worth it Quite plain inside by Euro standards but has a “vibe” that makes you think it’s something special The views back towards the town and great

Always a must see when i go to Le Puy, beautiful church with many secrets and little ally ways. There are some closed doors that if you give a little push will open right up and you will find yourself all by yourself in a new section of the church. There are great views of the city and other landmarks in the city. Do be ready to walk up many steps as this church is at the top of the hill.

This is a magnificent historical Romanesque cathedral. It's location on a high point in the heart of the old town offers amazing views of the city. We were lucky as during our visit there was a Pilgrim's mass on. This Cathedral is definitely a must visit.

Beautiful cathedral, also surrounding buildings are impressive.

The Cathedral, the Norte Dame de France and the surroundings are beautiful and hold the pretty little medieval town together.

A rare mixture of various architectural styles from Roman to Gothic to Oriental styles. A rich history to discover together with the rise and fall of the regional fortune. A must stop for visitors as well as pilgrims alike.

Sacred and peaceful place! The village itself is an eyes pleasure with amazing nature and calmness

Beautiful zoo and theme park. The Zoo part has very large animal enclosures. This is nice for the animals, but it can mean that you will not see the animals. The Zoo has some attractions and playgrounds. This part is so large you can easily spend a whole day here. Then there is also the theme park part which is also pretty big. With various types of attractions fot all ages. What I found remarkable is how clean the park is. The employees are kind and helpful. Another positive thing is that you don't need to buy a parking ticket for your car! A small point to improve is the speed of the chargers for electrical vehicles. My Tesla model Y only charged for 17% in 10 hours.

Had a brilliant two days in the park. The mix between attraction and wildlife is brilliant. What is amazing (which shouldn't be) is how clean everything was was. We stayed in the lodges above the hippos and it was brillant to watch them play as if we weren t there and the accomodation was outstanding. Don t hesitate book and vist le pal you will not be disappointed.

Great amusement park which combines being a theme park and a zoo in one park. The rides are attractive for a broad public as there are both simple, slow rides for younger kids and very fast rides like the Yukon quad. The animal shows (especially the bird show) are absolutely marvellous with all kinds of birds flying over your head.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Day at Le Pal! We visited Le Pal on 5 July and had a great time. The animals all looked healthy and well cared for, and we especially enjoyed watching the hippo feeding. The attractions were super fun, and because of the warm weather, the park had thoughtfully arranged some activities with fresh, cold water to help everyone cool down. I’ll definitely come back again soon!

Beautiful Park and Hotel! Great Rides! Must Visit!!!

We stayed 2 days at the PAL with a family of 9 over 3 generations. We all loved it. Excellent concept. Everything is thought for easing families happiness. Attractions are surrounded by trees and vegetation. Animals are well nourished and treated. Food booths are not proposing junk food. Prices are reasonable. We do recommend the PAL.

This is the place you want to come back again. So many attractions toddlers can do! Zoo! The Safari hotel! Great restaurant at the hotel. Very good place to come for the weekend.
