Explore the fortified city, which houses a large medieval citadel declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with this self-guided Carcassonne Day Trip from Toulouse. You can visit at your leisure and discover beautiful views.

Carcassonne Day Trip

At the designated time, we'll meet at 29 Allée Jean Jaurès in Toulouse and head to Carcassonne, which is 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 six hours of free time to enjoy both the cuisine and the old town at your leisure. We'll provide a brochure in English with a map and your tickets for the Castle of Carcassonne. You can also download a free audio guide in English to your mobile phone.

You'll be surprised by the gigantic walls around the city, 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 the French region of Occitanie.

It's also worth taking a walk through the old town to visit outstanding monuments, including the Basilica of Sainte-Nazaire, with its Romanesque and Gothic elements. You can also visit the area outside the walls and see 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. We'll arrive back at the starting point after a total of 8 hours.

Entrance Fees Not Included
