Reviewed By Derek-simpcar - Farnham, United Kingdom
To see a medieval church still with its interior decoration in tact is so unusual it produces a real wow factor. It reminds us that was what the majority of churches were like before subsequent generations painted them over or demolished them. It’s a truly beautiful survivor that shouldn’t be missed

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,328 reviews
“La Vallée des Singes”, the unique wildlife park dedicated to primates was founded in 1998. It is a place of amusement and knowledge promoting ecological awareness. Since its creation, the main objective of the park is to contribute in protection of nature, environment and primates. La Vallée des Singes offers to its visitors a unique experience through a full immersion into the fascinating world of primates. This wildlife park is 100% different; there are no cages, no fences but 450 monkeys freely living on a wide area of 22 hectares. Here, visitors are the ones who have the privilege to enter the monkeys’ territory. You have the possibility to observe the little monkeys with only a few steps away from you, as well as the great apes on their island.

Such a wonderful place being so close to the monkeys. Some are in enclosures, but they all looked happy and healthy. The place is vast. It's a great place for all ages and so worth a visit.
5. Abbey of Saint-Savin
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 223 reviews
The Abbey of Saint Savin sur Gartempe added to the UNESCO world heritage list for its exceptional 12th Century mural paintings which are the biggest in Europe. The Abbey of Saint Savin is a "must-see" for anyone wanting to discover Romanesque Poitou. Kids and adults will share together an unic trip through the history, using tablets (contents translated in 8 languages).

St. Savin Abbey is a beautiful, well-restored abbey located in St. German. The 11 century Abbey has tablets for providing information when walking and browsing, and they have it in writing, but not talking! in English. For once I didn’t feel neglected in France! The tickets are 10 Euros. After spending about 2,1/2 hours visiting the cathedral, two stories of different exhibitions and watching 15 minutes of the movie on the third floor amphitheater, we headed back to LRP, stopping on the way (in the rain) to see the old 11 century fortress at the city of Angle sur anglis. The view is gorgeous.

My parents are from the Cognac region and took me there the first time a year after its opening when I was in my early teens. I have been many times since and now I live in the uk but last year took my then 10 year old son. Over the years, it has massively expanded and has now about 25 pavillions showing differents types of high tech movies (3D, Imax, moving seats, combination of all of theses...). It is great entertainment and a fantastic day out. All the movies are shown in french but I believe you can borrow a translation unit. We went last year for Easter just before the start of the french holidays and we managed to see everything and some of the favourites multiple times. You will not be able to do this in the summer months when you will most likely need 2 days due to the very long queues. It is very well suited for children of all age but, I think a good age to start is around 8-9 years. Any younger and they won't be able to go in some of the pavillions due to height restriction, and also some of the movies are documentaries that might really bore very young children. There are restaurants on site too, but you can take your own picnic and sit on the numerous benches you'll find across the park. So, nothing like your traditional park with lots of rides but definitely worth a visit. We are thinking about going back this year...

A wonderful afternoon activity. The creatures feel very close and there is an amazing variety – crocs (truly like living dinosaurs!), snakes (the biggest anaconda imaginable!), iguanas, tortoises...! The new aerial walkway adds an 'Indian Jones' sense of adventure. Very well worth the visit. Also, there is a swimming pool complex and bowling just opposite.
