Dordogne

Dordogne Trips

Explore the river valleys, medieval villages, ancient woodland and fairytale chateaux of the Dordogne region of France. It's set apart by its dramatic scenery and exquisite cuisine, and quiet lanes and meandering pathways make for perfect cycling or walking holidays. Whether pedalling along the riverbanks or walking along glorious golden-pink limestone cliffs, passing walnut groves and truffle woods as you go, there's no better way to explore on Dordogne holidays.

We also offer safe, undemanding canoeing along the Dordogne River. You'll learn about the rich history of the area as you go – the river formed the frontier between France and England during the Hundred Years War. Along its banks there are more than a thousand castles steeped in legend and history, witness to centuries of conquests and conflict. Follow the twists and turns of the valley, and climb through fields and shaded woodland to hilltop towns and fortified strongholds with impressive views.
