Carcassonne Private Tour

Join us to explore the secrets left by the Cathars in the south of France. We will meet in front of the Narbonne Gate of Carcassonne at the scheduled time to begin our private tour of one of the best-preserved walled cities in Europe.

During the two-hour tour, we will walk through the historic center of Carcassonne and learn about its past. Discover medieval defensive architecture featuring a total of 52 towers built for the city's protection against possible attacks. You will learn about the main enemies of Carcassonne.

We will cover the origins of the walls of Carcassonne and the history of its key monuments, including the basilica of Saint-Nazaire, notable for its Romanesque and Gothic architecture and beautiful stained glass windows that create a unique lighting effect.

If desired, we can also visit two main attractions: the Condal Castle and the Museum of the Inquisition. The tour will conclude in the old town after the guided experience.
