Dordogne & Lascaux Cave Full Day Tour

Head to the region of Dordogne, you will be picking up your licensed guide at the village of Bergerac that will accompany all your visit during the day. If time allows you can take a quick visit of the village before heading to a bucolic spot: Les Eyzies de Tayac, considered as the “world capital of prehistory”! The village offers an impressive setting of cliffs that you will be able to admire from the confort of your car.

Arrive to Lascaux IV cave for a 1 hour 30 minutes of guided visit in English! For the first time, Lascaux reveals itself entirely. A complete and unpublished replica retraces the discovery of the famous decorated cave. Travel in this masterpiece of humanity and discover the impressive parietal representations. You will leave the real world to rub shoulders with the dreamlike and artistic universe of cro-magnon 21,000 years ago rich in emotions and colors!

Next head for lunch at the charming medieval city of Sarlat-la-Canéda. The village has a very rich historical heritage and the highest density of listed historical monuments in the world! A city of Art and History and also the first protected area in France to have been restored! Sarlat’s Old Town looks like nothing less than a fairy tale village, filled with beautifully kept buildings and tiny, twisting paths.

Along your way back to Bordeaux stop by spectacular villages like La Roque Gageac, third site in France after Mont Saint Michel and Rocamadour. Its houses at the foot of a cliff just in front of the waters of the Dordogne will take you breath away! Also stop by Château de Beynac standing at the top of a vertiginous cliff, dominating the village of Beynac-et-Cazenac, the castle is an impressive stone sentinel that has watched over the Dordogne for more than 9 centuries.
