Discover the charm of southwest France on a guided journey from Sarlat to the picturesque villages of Domme and Beynac, with a scenic Dordogne River boat ride. This half-day tour introduces you to some of the region’s most beautiful medieval sites, all within easy reach of Sarlat.
Begin your adventure in Domme, a fortified bastide perched above the Dordogne Valley. Wander cobbled streets and learn about the village’s fascinating history, from its unique city plan to tales of the Knights Templar and the Hundred Years’ War. Domme’s panoramic views are truly unforgettable.
Continue to La Roque-Gageac, where you’ll board an authentic Gabarre for a peaceful cruise along the Dordogne River. As you glide past dramatic cliffs and riverside castles, your guide shares stories about the region’s rich heritage. In case of inclement weather, the boat ride is thoughtfully replaced by a castle visit.
Your final stop is the medieval village of Beynac, dominated by its imposing 12th-century castle. Explore the narrow lanes and admire the fortress perched high above the river, a testament to the area’s storied past. Walking tours in both Domme and Beynac are included, led by an expert English-speaking guide.
This small-group experience lasts around four hours and accommodates two to eight guests, ensuring a personalized atmosphere.
