Service Description

Carte Blanche offers a 4-hour excursion to discover the gems of Occitanie, a region layered with centuries of history, a mosaic of landscapes, and a vibrant local culture shaped by Romans, troubadours, monks, and Cathars. From hilltop bastides to vineyard-covered valleys, let us guide you through this unforgettable corner of France. Choose to wander the cobbled lanes of Auvillar and Lauzerte, listed among the Plus Beaux Villages de France, or explore the Romanesque treasures of Moissac with its UNESCO-listed abbey and cloister. Traverse the vineyard hills of Brulhois, the gentle countryside of Quercy-Pays de Serres, or the market town charm of Montaigu-de-Quercy. Stroll through Montauban, pink-bricked and rebellious, or follow the Tarn River to Albi, home of the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum and a fortress-cathedral of extraordinary scale. Discover the medieval magic of Cordes-sur-Ciel, or soak up the bohemian spirit of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, nestled between cliffs and rivers. Head to Toulouse, the dynamic Ville Rose, or to the Gascon heartlands of the Gers and Lomagne, where duck confit, Armagnac, and sun-drenched markets rule the table. Venture into the Minervois and Cathar Country, where ruined citadels perch dramatically above the valleys, or into Carcassonne, with its fairy-tale fortified city. Along the way, savour local wines — from bold reds of Cahors and Brulhois to the perfumed whites of Fronton and sweet muscats of the Minervois — and indulge in the culinary soul of the region: cassoulet, foie gras, cabécou cheese, and seasonal fare rooted in tradition and terroir. Our professional guides will design a route with you and enrich it with local colours, stories, and encounters that transform a visit into an experience. Occitanie is vast and endlessly rich — contact us to choose your micro-region and let us work our travel magic. Examples of cities, villages and micro-regions: Toulouse, Moissac, Valence d'Agen, Lauzerte, Carcassonne, Cordes-sur-Ciel, Albi, Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, Montaigu-de-Quercy, Gers, Lomagne, etc.
