Enjoy some of the Dordogne's most photogenic landscapes on this small-group half-day private tour from Sarlat. You'll be able to learn about the Dordogne region's rich history as you visit the medieval town of Domme and explore the 12th-century castle of Beynac. After, you'll make your way down the Dordogne river aboard a traditional wooden Gabarre and admire the majestic châteaux that loom over the riverside.
Listen to your tour guide explain the local culture and history as your small group begins to admire some of the most stunning landscapes of the area before making your way to the first village - Domme.
With its trapezoid city plan, Domme is a bastide (a fortified medieval town) adapted to the surrounding terrain, and thus falling short of the rectangular city plan characteristic to Bastides. The village is.
Then experience La Roque Gageac to enjoy a peaceful cruise on the Dordogne River on board an authentic Gabarre where you'll admire mighty castles that line the river. The boat ride lasts about one hour and comes highly recommended. You can also discover the Gardens of La Roque that benefit from microclimate conditions and where local vegetation stands alongside more exotic plants such as Banana trees, agave and Bougainvillea flowers.
Finally, you'll reach Beynac to admire the village, the Castle and then return to Sarlat.
