Experience Occitania
The French Pyrenees have played an important part in European history. The area is therefore rich in important historical sites, all set against the backdrop of the breathtakingly beautiful mountain range that forms the border between Spain and France. During this tour you can combine some of the popular highlights with e.g. the Hermitage of St. Anthony of the Desert, the rock church of Vals, the prehistoric caves and park, ancient abbeys such as St. Michel de Cuxa, fortified towns like Villefranche-de-Conflent, the Donjon D'Arques, Château de Termes and Villerouge Termenes. The choice is yours.
