Carcassonne Day Trip
At the designated time, we'll meet at 29 Allée Jean Jaurès in Toulouse and head to Carcassonne, located just one hour and 15 minutes away.
Once we arrive at this medieval town, we'll take you to Porte Narbonaise, where you'll have 6 hours of free time to enjoy both the cuisine and the old town at your leisure. We'll provide you with a brochure in English and your tickets for the Castle of Carcassonne. You can also download a free audio guide in English to your mobile phone.
You will be impressed by the gigantic walls designed to protect the legendary secrets of the Cathars. In the intramural area, you'll find the Castle of Carcassonne, one of the most historic fortresses in Occitanie.
Take a walk through the old town to visit monuments, including the Basilica of Sainte-Nazaire, featuring Romanesque and Gothic elements. You can visit areas outside the walls, including the old medieval entrances such as the Porte Narbonnaise and the Porte de l'Aude.
In the afternoon, we'll meet in the center of Carcassonne to return to Toulouse, arriving back after a total of 8 hours.
Entrance Fees Not Included
