A fantastic day trip from Toulouse

5.00We loved our full day trip from Toulouse! Amélie was a fantastic tour guide whose knowledge of the region and its history shone through. We learned a lot and took in amazing scenery and city scapes. The last stop at Chateau de Mayragues was a great opportunity to sample wines from the region. I'd happily go on another tour like this the next time I'm France.

4.00Our guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and a nice person. However, the tour seemed rushed. She returned us to the meeting point at 4:30 instead of 5 pm. I think the tour in Albi could be shortened, add 30 minutes to Cordes and 30 minutes to wine tour. The wine stop was the shortest we’ve experienced on a Viator tour. The owner said he would normally give us a taste from the barrels and do more but our guide wouldn’t allow it as she was on a tight schedule. That was a disappointment. Albi and Cordes were nice but vineyard in Gaillac could be better by adding more time and light pairing with wines. For $300 for two, should have been better.

5.00Fabulous day trip from Toulouse with plenty of variety. Opportunity to visit Toulouse-Lautrec museum in Albi, challenging hilltown walking in Corles (made easy by our guide choosing a moderate route from parking area), and interesting visit to Guillac region family run winery. This tour was all day but well-paced to allow ample time at each stop, including time for a 3 course lunch in Albi for those who did not indulge in a hearty breakfast. Or fun shopping for those who chose a quick lunch. Our guide, Amelie, provided an enthusiastic and thorough introduction, or reminder, of the history of the region.
