We were looking for a local farm that offered tours or foi gras production and stopped by early afternoon. The tour was not scheduled until the evening but we found out that they ran a restaurant as well. We sat down to the most flavorful meal we had during our trip to France. Fresh salad from their garden with cured duck breast followed by perfectly done cassoulet with confit duck legs. We had eaten cassoulet at another fine dining restaurant near Toulouse and this farm blew them away. Very reasonably priced, outdoor dining, friendly staff, family run. A wonderful experience.

This Prehistoric cave from the Magdalenian era lies just a few kilometres east of Les Eyzies on the right bank of the Beune river. It was classified as a listed site in 1926 in recognition of its unique sculptures. The frieze covers all but two metres of the 15-metre deep cave and features horses, bison and deer, some of which overlap. Originally, the sculptures were probably coloured since traces of ochre pigment were found during earlier archaeological digs. The remarkable depth and vibrancy of these sculptures carved with flint tools make the Cap-Blanc Cave one of the greatest masterpieces of Prehistoric art from the Upper Palaeolithic period. A museographical area around the friezes gives an overview of Cap-Blanc life and art. Cave of the Vézère valley designated world heritage site by UNESCO.

I would agree with previous comments. We got our ticket at Font de Gaume and were told to arrive at 4 PM. We were the only people on the English tour. Takes about an hour to see these excellent examples of cave art.
