Basilique Saint-Sernin

Reviewed By KateJourney - Exeter, Canada

When we decided to explore Toulouse, we headed directly to the Musee d'Archaeologie ...and found it right beside the basilica...so after the museum we toured it as well. A lovely church with and interesting crypt with reliquaries...always great to immerse in local history.

Musee Fabre

Reviewed By Lefourragere

The musee Fabre is a fantastic destination in Montpellier, we paid 10 euros and saw the Picasso exhibition which was well presented and certainly showed his sense of humour, the ticket gives entry to the permanent collection which starts off with some exhibits on art restoration then the gallery unfolds over many floors with room after room of wonderful paintings, - I think the ticket allows you to go back as you might need to explore in stages, entry to the maison sebattiere is included, and whilst attractive is relatively small and won't take long! It shouldn't be a surprise to find something of the quality of the Fabre in Montpellier, there should just be more like it!

Historic Fortified City of Carcassonne

Reviewed By shonas804 - Auckland, New Zealand

We absolutely loved visiting here. Imagine a real life medieval town, Harry Potter fans would love this place. I loved everything thing about it .... from the cobbled streets, the amazing turrets, to the fantastic shops, the incredible history and being able who walk around in a living city with so much history. The church had gorgeous stained glass windows. Go here, it is amazing!

This was definitely our favorite spot to be in all of Toulouse! The Capitole building, the surrounding buildings, all the cute little cafes and restaurants, we just had a blast there. This is an absolute must do while in Toulouse!

Espiguette Beach

Reviewed By 980ec - Newport Pagnell, United Kingdom

Enjoyed a few hours here in August sunshine. It caters for huge numbers of people but is absolutely vast with safe shallow waters and refreshments nearby. Car park is reasonable for what you are gaining access to, and every time you walk through the entry parting in the dunes it is like Holkham in Norfolk just with warmer and closer water!! Up to my neck in the Med with a huge shoal of small fish rolling with the gentle swell was just wonderful.

Sentier du Littoral

Reviewed By dietero895

We decided to do this walk from Argelès-sur-Mer to Collioure. The route in one word: beautiful. The route is going over the mountains near the sea. So you got a lot of beautiful sights on the sea, coast and the villages around. A lot of the mountains have a sort of stairs so this makes climbing much easier and safer. Tip: instead of taking the bus back to argeles you can take the boat. For 7euro you have a boat back to argeles (duration 15min)

This villa is the architectural version of Mucha's JOB posters: art nouveau at its best. From the grand staircase that leads to the glass-ceiling portico, to the paneled reception rooms and lush colonnade patio, you will feel like you are at the turn of the century. And, it's free to enter!

Reviewed By Verluc1959 - Antwerp, Belgium

This is the real naturism experience. Being onewith the beautiful nature that surrounds you. The atmosphere is filled with respect for others and for nature. I love to give aroma sessions every year in the cosy sauna and enjoy afterwards a good swim in one of the pools together with a drink at the bar... Fantastic. This is what naturisme and relaxing holiday is all about...The way of life i like
