Length of visit: a half day.

Departure from Toulouse: from 55 €

This visit is in a fully equiped minibus that is entirely reserved for you and your group. Choose the date and the time for your trip to Carcassonne as well as the pick-up place.

Carcassonne is the largest and best preserved medieval fortress in Europe. It has been on the Unesco World Heritage list since 1997: it is a "must" to see.

The program of this visit: a guided visit of the lists between the ramparts, a walk through the narrow medieval streets of the old cité, a view of the outside of the Count's castle, and a visit to the Basilica of St Nazaire.

To continue the visit there are two options:

* visit the rooms of the Count's castle which is situated in the heart of the old medieval cité, and walk along the fortifications. The fee for the visit to the castle is 7.50 euros per person (2008 rates) paid at the entrance window.

* free time inside the cité, until the hour to return to Toulouse.

The "plus" with TOURSUD: your guide will show those who are interested in taking photos some of the best viewpoints of the cité...
