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.

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!

This museum is definitely worth visiting. They have tastings, beautiful views, and the ability for you to use all of your senses and learned so much about Wine! I highly recommend going if you are interested at all in Wine. Children can even join in the tasting since they offer sodas instead of wine.

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.

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.

Beautiful church! Unfortunately they are rennovating the entrance at the moment. But certainly a must see if you're in the area.

Been going to Aubeterre Sur Dronne for the last 3 years. Finally paid a visit. Wow, epic. Eye opening.

Amazing place, reminscent of Capodocia in Turkey, with less practiced skill, more reverence.

A must see! Fascinating history of a originally private church! The guided tour was highly informative 👌

Pretty french village worth a visit . There is a subterranean church cool on a killer 40' day

It's worth looking at it,it costs 8 euros when I visited

Truly astonishing place to visit.

Fantastic place to visit. Not only is there great wine, but there is a restaurant that has great food too!! The chateau is great to look round, with lots of history of the building. And a very interesting section when you first go in, that explains the whole wine making process. All the signage is in both French and English, so still able to get the full experience without being fluent in French. Amazing views from the chateau grounds.

Lovely Chateau with an interesting historical and arts exhibitions. Fabulous views of the countryside from its elevated position. Nice little cafe / restaurant. It has a very good wine museum and tastings.

A beautiful Château set among vines on a hill to the south of Bergerac. It has an interesting history of being saved by 50 vintners of the area in the 1960s. A little further to the south is the pretty village of Monbazillac. A must visit if you are in the area.

This is a total experience not to be missed. So much to learn. A combination of history and wine including the specifics of Monbazillac wine. I highly recommend doing the full three wine tasting experience as you get so much more learning and understanding from it. The tasting is delicious too. 🤤

We recently visited Monbazillac Château for a tour and wine tasting (€43). The lady at the reception was very kind and welcoming, and the tour with the tasting itself was enjoyable. However, our experience at the restaurant beforehand left us quite disappointed. Before the tasting started, we wanted to sit down with our children and simply have a drink at the restaurant. When I asked if we could sit, a man working there responded very oddly, with a confusing “yes, no, yes”, and then asked in broken English if I had a booking. I explained that I had just booked the tour and tasting, and only wanted to order some drinks before it began. He refused and told me I had to go back to the shop at the entrance to book this, which made no sense. After walking back, the lady in the shop was very friendly but also surprised by the situation. She apologized repeatedly, though she could not help further and sent me back to the reception. The receptionist was also shocked by the story, confirming that of course we should have been able to sit down and order drinks. She immediately called the restaurant, and only then were we finally allowed to sit and order. Back at the restaurant, I expressed my dissatisfaction to the man, pointing out that he had sent me back and forth for nothing. Instead of acknowledging this, he just laughed it off strangely and said very little, leaving a female staff member (who was friendly) to take our order. The whole incident gave me the impression that he either had a very bad day or simply does not understand what hospitality means. It was not busy at all, yet he acted as if he had no control over the situation. My advice to the management: please have a serious conversation with this staff member and consider proper hospitality training. Otherwise, more guests will have the same negative experience. Overall, the wine tasting was fun, but the château itself was nothing particularly special, and this incident left a bitter aftertaste to what should have been a smooth and welcoming visit.

Had lunch at the cafe that is part of the Chateau - Pavillon Brizay - it was really excellent. We had both duck dishes and they were cooked to perfection and served with great sauces. The wine museum is well put together and views from Chateau fantastic. The Chateau itself is limited but does have an extensive history of the area. But honestly time your tour to include lunch !!

Beautiful chateau and excellent wine producing exhibition. The tasting room and shop are perfect way to finish the tour. Wines are high quality had to buy some obviously 🙄

Great place for all the family especially on a Friday. Market day buzzing. Paddle boards and canoes to hire and electric boars. Good cafes and restaurants next to the river plus free parking down the side of the river where the canoe hire base is. Brocantes and cave grotto shops add to the fun.

Beautiful and unique abbey set into caves in an interesting little town. When we visited, there were art exhibitions on, with some lovely original art on display.

A beautiful place in the Dordogne and certainly worth in visit. Great fun watching the canoes going over the two waterfalls. The main building is the large Abbey built at the base of a huge Cliff. The rest of the village is really charming and well worth walking around.

One of the most beautiful towns we have seen, the Abbey is stunning hosting the oldest belfry in France from the 12th century

We wandered around in the cave and totally enjoyed all the history and gardens. Then we ate at one of the sweet little cafes on the street of the Abbey. After that we hit the shops in the little village across the bridge and souvenir shopped my little heart out. Wonderful day!

A lovely place for a day out, kayaking, lunch, boat trips, ice creams, lovely shops, cafés and restaurants. Market day on Friday.

Amazing set of buildings but, sadly, all a tad rundown and in need of serious TLC before it's too late.

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.

Another large castle which is over a 1000 years old. Stooped in history of being French then English in the 14th and 15th century and finally in French hands again. Truly a national treasure, and well worth the visit.

Excellent large castle, suitable for active children. Lots for them to see and do, but it is a castle and not an adventure playground. We were there in August and arrived at 10am as it opened and had a short que, however it was filling up fast so I would arrange to get there early.

Well worth a visit for the views from the ramparts alone, a good tour which could be enhanced by putting more explanations around the place of what things are. The English translation of the guide was a nice touch, though. Good value day out, especially if you go on a day when the village restaurants were open, which we didn't.

Stunning especially its views from the top, how it retains its medieval rawness, and how you can imagine life then. Apparently Ridley Scott donated for the roof after filming The Last Duel there early 2020s. A few people had recommended going to Monpazier and then to Château de Biron in one day and it is a great idea.

Castle that has been much altered over the years. Interesting tour round using the English language audio guide. On site restaurant rather pricey. Closes at midday for a couple of hours.

A fascinating visit for history lovers. Village is also well worth a visit - very pretty.

A wonderful medieval castle, very well preserved, located in a beautiful area. Must visit.!

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

Our visit to Le Parc du Bournat was extremely disappointing. We paid too much for what was offered. Most of the interesting activities required extra payment and advance reservations — but none of this was communicated at the entrance. As a result, we either missed out completely or had to wait in long lines with no guarantee of participation. Many of the so-called “attractions” were closed for maintenance, but the thick cobwebs made it clear that no real maintenance had taken place. The whole park felt neglected and poorly managed. If you’re visiting with kids under 1.20m: don’t bother. They are not allowed on almost anything — yet still have to pay full price. For children taller than 1.40m, there’s very little to do as well. The park seems to target a narrow age group, and even for them, many things were unavailable. We were drawn in by the promise of a nocturne (evening opening), but sadly this only meant that almost everything closed at the regular time, and we were left waiting for hours with nothing to do until the fireworks. A total letdown. To top it off, we queued with many others for the Ferris wheel, only to be told halfway through the line that it was closing because the operator was hungry. No explanation, no structure – just arbitrary decisions, leaving disappointed kids and parents behind. The entire experience felt like a series of missed opportunities: poor communication, extra charges, closed attractions, and very little value for money. Yes, the setting is charming, but there’s no substance behind the façade. We won’t be coming back. There are far better, more honest and child-friendly places in the region.

Love this place, we've been before and it was even better than the last time! Old fashioned French fairground and rides, the interactive areas and the traditional crafts the demonstrate is fantastic. The staff are fantastic and very friendly.

Came here on Sunday with enough people to make the place pleasantly busy adding to the atmosphere. There is so much to see and do. Ride on the period bus, ride on the horse drawn carriage, rowing boat paddle, Chap do this very through and friendly. We played period games as well as having rides on period fun fare rides including and incredible big wheel. Old cinema old toys. There also a project to make a flying machine!! Young lad, sorry we could not understand you but we see your enthusiasm coming through. All these were free. As we do not speak French some of the explanations by staff went over our head. This is a must do place to visit, not just a recommendation. We spent all day. Spend time and slow visit and you see lot more. The man walking around herding the geese with two sheep dogs, the scary school teacher ( was nice really we got told of in French)

Chill vibe. Interesting traditional arts details, but all in all rather expensive entry fee. Most staff very friendly, some less...

This unique park offers heritage preservation and provides an enjoyable experience for children. The park is well-maintained, featuring ample shaded areas, and the staff is friendly. The pricing structure offers good value, and the food options are reasonably priced; for example, a quarter chicken sourced from a local farm, served with potatoes and salad, is available for under 10 euros.

Amazing little park hidden behind the amusement park. Real life artisans working in place, great rides, mini farm, lovely food and even the gift shop is worth a visit. My 2 year old loved it as did my in laws in their 60s.

Such a disappointment. Hardly any employees around. Only 3 artisans demonstrating work. The others were earlier in the day or the next day. No schedule provided to know when demonstrations would be. The park looks like it has not been maintained since 1900. Very dingy and sad. Not worth the entry fee especially when you have to pay extra inside. 5 euros to write with a quill? Just highly disappointed.

An ABSOLUTELY impressive multi faceted immersive experience!! Not to be missed! The whole castle from room to room offered museum quality examples of weapons armour. A few areas had repeating audiovisual stories about construction of siege equipment, and how to make armour. One area was a theatre. There was a live blacksmith , a person who explained and fired a trebuchet. Another explained weapons use and gave kids some basic sword training using props. Probably the best EVER historic site I’ve been to !! Well worth the money and drive to see!!

Very beautiful castle, especially recommended for a visit with children! In the various exhibition rooms, in addition to the elements on display, there were also small Playmobil exhibitions, so that the children could also enjoy the visit! The castle itself is beautiful, really well preserved and offers phenomenal views of the valley and river in the area. At the end of the visit (small signs help you to navigate everything, even without a guide) you will find a small tower room for children with books about castles, knights and the like, as well as Playmobil toys, where the children can play and read! Really amazing, the kids loved it! The children also loved the costumes that were available in an exhibition room. You could choose something from a range of medieval clothing and then sit on a throne provided and take your photo (free of charge, but you take the photos yourself, of course). A wonderful idea! I would definitely recommend a visit for families, but without a stroller, as you can leave one in a designated area in front of the castle. The only thing I didn't like so much, and that's not the castle's fault, was that in winter only one restaurant was open, the one right next to the castle, and unfortunately they weren't good and a bit expensive for what you get. Otherwise, highly recommended!

A rewarding view and experience for a slightly hard uphill hike. Can drive up, but part of the experience is the walk up! The restaurants around the top are really terrible so I'd suggest either bringing a picnic or going back down to eat.

Very nicely renovated castle, put into a very good state. The self walking tour is fun. Amazing views of the river valley as well.

To me, this is a castle and not a chateau. Therefore don't expect fancy furniture and artwork. However, if you like your medieval weapons, then this is a good place to visit.

Beautiful setting for a castle and well worth the trip,theres some shop's at the site and restaurants will go back again

An excellent castle to view middle ages weapons,and the views are great

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

Just an amazing experience. It really feels like you're in the cave, and yet at the same time I am so glad that they have sealed off the real cave to preserve it. Our guide was very informative, and the design of the museum surrounding the cave is stunning and takes incredible advantage of the natural setting.

It's a shame we can't go to the original cave, as it needs to be preserved against humidity. However the Lascaux IV cave is an exact copy of the original. The whole setup of the complex is amazing with excellent descriptions and information about the cave and its drawings. The only downside is the carpark is a fair distance away from the complex.

Impressive Museum In order to preserve the original cave, the French government approved 40 or 50 years ago to seal the real cave and do other caves that are re-enactment of the original. This strategy is a must in order to preserve this historical treasure. The site you visit is actually really good and literally a perfect copy. It is well worth it and is very informative, both explaining the discovery of the site and the creation of it. It is one of the best 3 palaeontological sites in Europe. Obviously super worth it!

Fantastic experience - the reproduction of the cave is very good and accessible for all. Our English guided tour by Celia was excellent and well paced. The museum was very informative with good use of technology to bring the cave and its history to life.

Absolutely amazing. Even though you can not visit the original caves the replica gives you and incredible opportunity to view the paintings in a protected environment.

An absolutely mind boggling exhibit! Have known about the Lascaux cave art for decades, but was visiting friends nearby, so took the opportunity to visit. So glad we did. The tour guide was passionate and knowledgeable. The little snack bar/café had a tasty selection of food and snacks. Very much worth the visit.

Was blown away by the quality of the reconstruction!! What an exceptional way to both preserve the actual images and make an amazing learning experience available to the public. Will return for a second visit later this week.

Impressive Chateau - Park, Garden, Museum & all installations. Interesting and dramatic history of this place and also a good example of people solidarity and passion to keep your heritage alive. Highly recommended to visit a local brasserie. Easy to find a parking spot. Suggest to spend at least half a day, including outdoor premises.

Beautiful chateau and garden, not huge we spend about an hour and then got some drink. They are very considerate for people with some walking limit and allow driving to the gate to drop them.

We really enjoyed our day at Chateau Hautefort. We received a warm welcome from the lady in the ticket office and then walked through to the impeccable courtyard where even the gravel had been raked! Lots of information available about the restoration and fire (the film was particularly informative) and a room dedicated to all the films that have been made there. We had lunch in the restaurant which was good value for money but presumably you could take a picnic into the grounds where there are lots of tables and chairs. The French formal garden was so pretty with a pink and purple colour scheme, topiary and box hedging. We then walked through the English style park where we felt lucky to see carpets of cyclamen under the trees.

Beautiful chateau and gardens. Poorly signed. Had no idea children’s buggies were not permitted and had to be parked in a small holding bay at the entrance. There was also a tiny café, without any high chairs - so quite difficult with a baby. Toilet facilities also rather lacking for the little ones. Staff were friendly and many speak English if you need that.

Very nicely presented chateau with access to a lot of rooms, including one the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother stayed in. Fascinating view of the roof structure inside the turrets, a short video of how the chateau burnt down shortly after it was restored in the 1960s and even a film set where you can dress up as Louis XIV. (A film about his death was being made here in 2015 the last time we visited. Ever After starring Drew Barrymore was also filmed here.) The gardens and setting are lovely too, although we didn't get chance to explore as the weather was so awful. Takes about 2 hours to see the inside of the chateau if you dawdle.The lady in the ticket office spoke French, English and Spanish and was extremely nice and helpful.

Château Hautefort struts on its hill, all elegance and attitude. Perfect gardens, grand views — it knows it’s magnificent, and it is.

One of the most impressive castles in my life. Very clean, beautiful and accurately restored after the fire

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 ?

It was good, I just wish they would of told us to not bother taking our pram and/or use the ones they have available because the paths at the park are TERRIBLE for prams! And there's so many hills! I was sweating trying to push the bloody thing uphill 😂 animals seemed well looked after 🤘🏻

Very entertaining day out at a lovely park with well cared for animals in large, open paddocks (so not at all like city zoos!). We particularly enjoyed the feeding of the ring-tailed lemurs and the giraffes. The staff were friendly and attentive and there is a nice small cafe. One member of our party has reduced mobility and we were pleased to be able to pre-book a personal mobility scooter for her to manage the paths around the park. The park is not at all "commercial" so is highly recommended.

Now Ive only been to three Zoo's in France but I'm sorry to say this was our worst experience. Most of the animals were inside. Date Visited : 28th February 2025 The Giraffe's were inside the Giraffe house despite having a very large outside area to roam, the Tiger was locked inside its indoor cage and not in its enclosure. Only one vantage point to see the polar bears, that was blocked by trees, it needed a viewing platform that the Tiger enclosure had to view into the enclosure to see them around their pool. Overall I think we only saw 50% of the animals listed within enclosures. The Zoo replied to this review saying that in the winter months they keep animals inside for safety - my reply to that is that it should mention on the website that some animals will not be seen - why charge full price if only half the animals can be seen! I was contemplating booking a safari lodge but not sure I will visit again. Lion enclosure was small as was some of the other animal enclosures. Now I've given the Zoo just 2 stars - to give a comparison Pont Scorff Zoo near Lorient I would give 4 stars and Branfere Animal Park 5 stars.

I spent a few wonderful hours in the company of the animals and it was extraordinary! It is a place worth visiting with children! Everything is clean and surrounded by forest and lots of greenery! I recommend it!

We had a great day out. We were there for a good 6 hours. Loved seeing all the animals and the bats were really cool too. There was one bird who kept saying 'bonjour, ça va ? hahahaha', was too cute. The chateau is really beautiful too.

Great zoo/wildlife park, with over 600 animals and birds. A rhino, lions, tigers, leopards, zebra, camels, wolves, otters, deer antelope, monkeys plus many types of birds. The zoo is a long walk and hilly in places with stony tracks, so you need to be reasonably fit, they rent mobility scooters and heavy duty strollers for toddlers, if needed. There are big cats who have large areas to roam and hide, so don't be disappointed if you can't see them! The map isn't the most accurate so you have to explore a little, to make sure you don't miss any areas. There are 2 X cafes, one is basic which sold out of sandwiches early, the other had a reasonable range of made/cooked to order food. There are lots of picnic places and various outdoor play areas for younger children.

Excellent zoo, one of the best I've ever been to. Lots of space for all the animals, big and small. Not over touristy and a lovely place to go for a long walk. Great little shop and cafe as well. We got entrence as part of our Limoges city pass which was a bonus, very good deal.

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+

Simply fantastic! Easy to park (no charge), very easy to purchase tickets at a machine, queue short and undercover, audio guide straightforward and lifts if you want them. And as for the cave network - just amazing. You see so much and then into the boats - very atmospheric and onto yet more stunning sights. You will not be disappointed! We visited mid-September and no need to book ahead but certainly would for July and August. Highly recommend!

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!

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.

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).

Fantastic place to visit and see ancient history/geography in a brilliant setting.. lifts and stairs to lower caves but don't get stuck behind people who are incapacitated and should be using the lift other wise add another ½hour or more onto your journey.. staff very friendly and have the organizing down to a T..

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.

Great day out with lots to see. The layout is very spacious and open, but easy to get around with a buggy or wheelchair. The viewing platforms are great!! Up close and personel with the tigers!! But.... 1) None of the panels included English explanations. 2) The restaurant had no bread left at 13h30 so no sandwhichs and very limited alternative options??? 3) No one available in the gift shop (18h00) to buy anything- which is a pity because they have nice little gifts for young children.

Amazing experience, never expected an animal park to be this big in the mountains. I would recommend you get snacks, water and a hat for yourself. Most areas are wheel chair /stroller accessible (you can use a baby carry on). Wear good shoes. There are two kinds of feeding tickets check what suits you we did not attend any feeding. They have restaurants/coffee places.. there is a train that takes you to the top (pay additional) Keep a map with you

Amazing Place! So so better than Zoo. Makes you appreciate animals in something close to freedom. They have space and great areas to live in. They look happy and you can actually see them. It's also great for kids and If you don't like to walk you can even take a train to go up which might be useful (but you might skip some animals along the way). The only downside is that it is uphill.

Excellent day out, nice weather, Even the roads on the approach were scenic and beautiful. Great treat or the family of all ages.

Very big park and super beautiful place

Incredible environment, great animal care and preservation.

Great zoo, very clean and the animals seamed well looked after. Took young child in a pram. Very easy access. Nice friendly staff. Would recommend. A nice day out.

Unfortunately closed during my visit and relocated to the Pavillon des Sources for renovations, inquire at the Tourist Office to find out more ... Its impetuous gushing having earned it first being called "Gros Boulet", it took its name of Source de l'Hôpital in 1753, following the establishment of the old Vichy hospital nearby. Work carried out on its natural emergence site revealed an ancient catchment. The spring which emerges at a temperature of 34°C. has undergone many transformations. Its successive developments have been superimposed from the ancient well. When it is caught in concretions (at the end of the Middle Ages or at the beginning of the modern period), a new catchment is made of Gannat stones topped with a base forming a square basin covered with an iron grid. After being reinforced, it was enlarged in 1818 and topped with a circular Volvic stone pool surrounded by a promenade. A pavilion supported by twelve columns was erected above the spring in 1842. It primarily supplied the bathing establishment of the neighboring hospital, which was closed down in 1887 and then demolished. With spa visitors flocking during the second half of the 19th century, a new layout was necessary. The initial catchment was reworked in 1870, a pipe carrying water directly to the spa was installed, and the pool was replaced by a cast iron basin from which the water providers drew water. Since the 1942 work, water has been collected directly from the old ancient well and directed through a network of pipes to the basin, which took on its current appearance thirty years later. Long available in pharmacies, rich in carbon dioxide which gives it its characteristic sulfurous odor, recommended in cases of digestive, gastric and intestinal disorders to treat diseases of the liver, colon and pancreas. Declared of public interest by imperial decree on January 23, 1861, the spring is used as a drink distributed by the self-service refreshment stands in the Hall des Sources, as well as in the Callou thermal establishment. In view of the significant resources implemented around its initial capture, it can be assumed that the source of the Hospital has had therapeutic use since Antiquity, whether as a drink or in a bath. Converging evidence seems to confirm this hypothesis of thermalism present in Vichy for several millennia. In the distant past when Vichy was already known for its warm waters under the name of Aquae Calidae … It is the property of the City since 2021, the source of the Hospital is an integral part of the Vichy Thermal Estate.

(Translated by Google) Located between the axis of the Bellerive bridge and the former Vichy, the Rotonde was built in 1946 by the architect Louis Aublet. Beige on the outside and pistachio green on the inside, it was in 1942 that an ancient well for capturing the emerging spring was discovered. The spring that emerges has a temperature of 34 degrees. Declared of public interest by a decree of 1861, the spring is used as a drink distributed by the refreshments in the hall of the sources as well as in the Callou thermal establishment. Became property of the city in March 2021, the rotunda of the hospital source is an integral part of the Vichy thermal estate operated by the eponymous company.

Awesome museum ! I highly recommend doing a guided visit. You will go underground and see how a charcoal mine is. The guide was very nice and very informative.

Well worth a visit, and walkable from city center. The guided tour was superb, so consider booking in advance!

This museum is a former coal mine. Super interesting to visit if you pass by and you are interested in this kind of stuff. If you book in advance a guided tour (organised by the museum), you will also have the opportunity to visit a replica of the mine galleries, which includes a short underground train ride (underground facilities are not open to visitors with a regular entry ticket, guided tour only). Suitable for children. Everything is in French, though.

Very interesting place! Worth visiting for sure. Sadly we couldn’t visit the mine itself which would have been great to see.

Dirty, neglected, the QR codes don't work, you can't go down into the mine...

It is the museum which tells us about the history of Saint Etienne..... Wonderful place, must visit if you are here

Very interesting bit of French/European history. The guided tour we took was in French, didn't ask if they offer in other languages but you can visit everything top side without the guide.

I have mixed feelings about zoos, I went because my company organized a visit. First time in my life I've been in the presence of a gorilla, no more than a few meters away. First time I've seen a gorilla eating fruits and.... yogurt? This gorilla was being hand fed by the owner of this zoo, Mr. Pierre, he was feeding her inside her room it was fascinating to see. First time I've seen a lion run firsthand, and very upclose. And last but not least, first time I've heard a group of 10+ chimpanzees quarreling, calling out and "screaming". This zoo gave me a sense of humbleness and some sort of primal fear I've never felt before. It made me realize how majestic and imposing these animals can be, yet how beautiful they are too. I liked the back story too. I hope they are truly living up to their mission. I'm still thinking about what I saw.

Amazing place to visit. It’s recommended for all the family. Great views and animals are treated in an excellent way

Very nice zoo! The zoo was larger than I expected and had a nice range of animals. I really enjoyed seeing the Sun Bears and all of the monkeys.

What a great zoo. Never seen so many active animals at a zoo before. The tigers and lions were magnificent and playing with each other rather than just sleeping or pacing. Good close up viewing with all the animals. Also it's obvious that the zoo is expanding their enclosure space so it'll be interesting to see what it looks like the next time we return. Well worth the entrance fee and we will definitely return when we are in this area.

Good zoo close by Lyon. The zoo offers some great species of animals, but I think the price is too high. You can spend a couple of hours here, but the park is small and completed within 2 hours. We missed a bunch of animals, despite taking the time to spend extra time in the park after finishing the route. We missed the coatis, servals, binturongs, dingos and some more. Very poor habitats for some animals and some animals did not seem to have any space, like the ocelots. We did really enjoy seeing the snow leopards and the arctic wolves. The park smells bad in a lot of places and the hygiene in the toilets is just bad. For such a price we expected clean toilets somewhere, but it was very poorly maintained. Parking is free. €18,50 is too much in this case, but it’s not a total waste. Hopefully it is being used for future wellbeing of the animals.

Beautiful clean zoo, animals are well looked after, very reasonably priced... Great day out

Conservation focused zoo with quite a lot of interesting primate exhibits (amongst a lot of other types of animals). Big enough that you can spend a few hours here but also not so big that it has to take up your entire day. The zoo is positioned up a hill so there is some elevation change during your walk through but the park is entirely accessible (wheelchairs of course, but that means also strollers too Mamas… even enough room through entrances and pathways for huge American double strollers). And the layout of the enclosures up the hill allows for really good viewing of the animals in their enclosures.

Great and easy hiking trail to climb to the top; the scenery along the trail overlooks vineyards and little hamlets and is awesome for picture taking. The view from the top of the rock is breathtaking!

Beautiful view from the top! Nice walk. It took us with 2 kids (8/9 years) about 90 minutes in total, including chilling for 30 minutes at the top.

Popular hike it seems, quite a lot of people did the walk to the top which has a very nice view over the area. It took us +-30mins, for 1.7km. You can start at one of the (free) parkings, there should be enough place. We did the descent via Combe Robat til the town of Vergisson. Finally through the vineyards back to the parking. You can follow the yellow marks. This direction is very quiet and more fun. Our daughters of 8 and 11 joined us, and in total we walked 6km.

Very nice place to visit to get a view over the pouilly fussé vineyards. Quite an easy walk up from the parking place. Apparently Francois Mitterrand used to walk the hill once a year. There is also a museum, which was closed when we were there

Beautiful view! Fun and sporty walk!

A great place for a half-day trip if you're based nearby. Great views, nice holiday atmosphere. The path is somewhat difficult as it goes up, but it's worth it.

Wonderful views after a manageable climb. An important prehistorical site, An excellent museum and outdoor tour of the archaeological sites.
