I love this place and would say it is a must see if you are anywhere near by. We drove about an hour to see this and our family loved every minute of the walk around the castle, church and little village nestled in the cliff.
2. Gouffre de Padirac

The Gouffre de Padirac, the most famous cave in Europe, is considered as one of the most interesting geological sites in France. After a vertiginous descent, by lift or stairs, of 103 metres, you embark on a boat trip along the subterranean river with spectacular views on the galleries. That's when you discover the "Grande Pendeloque" - a gigantic stalactite of 60 metres high - hanging by a string, it appears to admire itself in the "Lac de la Pluie". You then walk towards the "Lac des Gours" or the "Salle du Grand Dôme" with its 94 metres high vault.

The tour of the caves and underground river is a fascinating, educational, awe-inspiring and reasonably priced must-see in the Dordogne area of France

La Foret des Singes A magical moment, a unique encounter ! An exciting walk amongst more than 150 free roaming Barbary Macaques. No bars, no cages to hinder your view. A direct contact with this amazing species. Feeding talks throughout the day.

We had an ok trip to Rocamadour, but on our way home stopped at the Monkey forest. I am so pleased we did as it made the trip worth it!

Beautiful structure, with beautiful views over the Lot River & surrounds. A perfect start for investigating the beautiful City of Cahors. You can walk around the river from the bridge to the Old Town.

This ia a wonderful historic small town perched high on a cliff above the river below. The original building was probably the castle/fortification, again perched on high, now a ruin but still very evident. The town consists of several very steep streets dotted with cafes and 'tourist type' shops plus several decent restaurants. There is also a 'beach' and towpath below, popular with walkers - we did not visit due to time constraints. A welcome bonus bonus is the provision for parking which is ample in all areas.
