Our family of four had a private day tour to Carcassonne and two vineyards with Olivia. She is friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I would recommend this to family and friends.
2. Full week inclusive tour of Cathar Country in the French Languedoc
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
Small groups led by a Cathar expert - historian and author James McDonald. You will visit sites associated with the Cathars and learn about their origins, beliefs and history. One minute you will be noting the spot where a Crusade leader fell, and the next immersed in the grand sweep of European history. James brings to life the medieval personalities - Saint Dominic, the man behind the founding of the first papal Inquisition; the ambitious Simon de Montfort; the tragic Raymond-Roger Trencavel; the irrepressible Count of Foix, and many others. You simply will not find either this depth of knowledge or this breadth of knowledge about Catharism anywhere else. Our tours are all in English. They are not scripted and unlimited time is always allowed for questions.
Inclusions: Lunch, Lunch, Lunch, Lunch, Lunch, Accommodation and breakfast x 5, Local taxes, Historical expert, dedicated driver and air-conditioned minivan
Exclusions: Supper each day

We spent a week with James McDonald and 6 other travellers exploring the Cathar Country and learning about who these incredible people were. James is an absolute font of knowledge about everything to do with the life and demise of these fascinating people. We travelled to Toulouse where we started off on an incredible adventure. A city tour for introduction a fabulous lunch in the old square. From here we met Alison our driver / guide and travelled to Quillan in a very nice bus. A charming little town full of nice restaurants to Hotel La Chaumiere. Lovely rooms excellent restaurant very friendly staff. We averaged 3/4 sites of interest a day interspersed with tutorials from James delicious lunches in small local cafes with excellent food and wine. Day 3 we also went on a wine tour to La Louviere a beautiful vineyard and to Limoux to taste Blanquette de Limoux. The sites of Montsegur, The Abbey of Fontfroide, Puivert, Arques, were compelling even more so with James commentary on every aspect of their place in this Cathar story. We spent a day free in Carcassonne to explore the Cite, Bastide and the beautiful Canal de Midi. We had such a good informative fun trip. Many thanks also for the dinners in Chateau St Ferriol with the McDonald family. I am so pleased that the Story and History of The Cathar people will be carried forward in the safe hands of James McDonald and Cathar Country Tours. Many Thanks James

The location in the vineyard is pleasant however the rooms are dated and not particularly comfortable. While our key was provided in a plastic bag the breakfast was a buffet which we felt was not appropriate during Covid. The staff was friendly. The Friday night jazz dinner was also nice. A little pricy for the quality.
