5Impressive museum
Our guide and driver to the caves, Lena, was wonderful, she picked us up promptly gave us information about the area and background information on the history of the caves. We were very lucky to have Lena as our driver and guide during 2 other tours in the Dordogne region while we were in Sarlat. She is very knowledgeable of the area, warm and with a great sense of humor. The museum was impressive and very informative, certainly worth the visit.
1Chauvet replica is much better than Lascaux experience
Cave very small; tour group too large; tour groups too close together; less than 30 min of the 1h tour was inside the cave replica; audio-visual technology in the 'museum' didn't work; set up so that no photos in cave replica despite the fact it is a replica.
5Beautiful - pre book first session!
Lascaux is a staple of prehistoric site touring. It is also extremely popular! Go on the website and pre book the first tour of the day. Come just a tad early and you’ll be able to park in the massive parking lot facing the site. Later in the morning / early afternoon is challenging at best. The tour will occur in two parts: a reproduction of the original site true to orientation and scale; and a second building where each section has been reproduced and available to get close to and photograph. Educational and beautiful.
5Caves: simply impressive
The country roads from Sarlat to Lascaux were so beautiful with the woods still green but with patches of the foliage of red and yellow leaves. So the distance seemed much shorter than it really was. The caves, although replicated, were simply impressive and our guide was knowledgeable and full of humour. There was a crowd, thanks to the school holidays, but it was not intimidating because the touring groups were well managed. The gift shop was a bonus at the end.
5Lascaux tour
A well planned chance to see the early human prehistory at the Lascaux site and its environs. A unique and world heritage experience
5Lascaux IV June 2025 visit
The accuracy and atmosphere made us feel like we were in the real cave of Lascaux. Very well done with impressive architecture too. Overall we highly recommend visiting this experience.

About Bergerac
Bergerac is a riverside wine town on the Dordogne in south-west France, with half-timbered lanes, a statue of Cyrano and sweet Monbazillac vineyards.
Bergerac stands on the Dordogne river, in the old province of Périgord. Its old quarter of half-timbered houses, cobbled squares and narrow lanes surrounds Place Pélissière, where a statue honours Cyrano de Bergerac, the swordsman-poet made famous by Edmond Rostand's play. The riverside quays once loaded wine barrels onto flat-bottomed boats bound for Bordeaux.
