This itinerary traces an enchanting stretch of the French southwest, from the eastern foothills of the Pyrenees to the shores of the Mediterranean. We begin in Toulouse, the capital of Occitanie and a dynamic center of heritage and innovation. From there, we head south to the Côte Vermeille and the village of Collioure, where the mountains meet the sea. Turning inland, we explore the Vallespir Valley on our way to Céret — a charming hillside haven and mecca for lovers of modern art. We then descend through the Gorges de Galamus, a dramatic limestone canyon, before reaching our final stop: the fortified citadel of Carcassonne.
