Highlights

Private sightseeing tour with an American driver-guide (Expatriate - in France since 1992) Visit the colorful and historic Midi-Pyrenées Region North of Toulouse. From Toulouse we'll first visit the Pech Merle Cavern with amazing prehistoric paintings. Next we'll drive to St Cirq-LaPopie - one of the most beautiful villages in France . . . One of the greatest advantages to my tours is flexibility. I may propose or start the day with an itinerary in mind, or list of places to visit, but from there the day will unfold according to your personal wishes. My objective is to help you to maximize your time spent here in France - so that you will most comfortably enjoy all the beauty and history - that you return home filled with spectacular memories of a marvelous adventure.

About Toulouse

Toulouse is the Pink City of south-west France, built of rose-red brick, with a great Romanesque basilica, a canal and a long aerospace history.

Toulouse earns its nickname, la ville rose, from the warm brick of its buildings, which glows in the evening light along the Garonne. The Basilica of Saint-Sernin, a Romanesque church begun in the eleventh century and a stage on the pilgrim road to Santiago, is one of the largest surviving Romanesque churches in Europe. The Capitole, the city hall, faces a broad square lined with cafés, and the Jacobins convent has a famous column that fans out like a palm tree.

Top-ranked sights in Toulouse: St. Sernin Basilica (Basilique Saint-Sernin) , Toulouse Cathedral (Cathedrale St-Etienne), Place du Capitole.
