28 km

48 hours in Biarritz

Biarritz, the jewel of the Basque coast, has seen many upheavals over the course of its history. Today, in the firmament of cool, gourmet destinations, it's worth recalling its rich foundations.

22 km

48 hours in Périgueux

Périgueux, such a rich city! This two-thousand-year-old city was known in Roman times as Vésone (Vesunna), in reference to a water goddess, but the site was occupied long before by the Gallic Pétrocores peoples, who made it their capital and gave their name to the present-day city and to the Périgord region.

67 km

A day in the Marmandais

Marmande's destiny is both strange and commonplace. How is it that this small town, sub-prefecture of the Lot-et-Garonne region, with so many assets, is not better known and visited by tourists?

2023

43 km

48 hours in Arcachon

The "town of the four seasons" (and its neighbor Pyla-sur-Mer) has long been uncomfortable with its medical past, and until the 1970s lived a somewhat hidden life. A past it is now proud to defend and safeguard.

31 km

48 hours on the island of Oléron

The possibility of an island... You can choose Belle-Île, the romantic Breton, or Noirmoutier, the gentle, family-friendly Vendée, or Ré, opposite La Rochelle, chic and bohemian. And then, a little further south, there's Oléron, the wildest and most iodized.

17 km

48 hours in Bayonne

Don't reduce Bayonne to its festivities and postcard-perfect facades.

13 km

48 hours in La Rochelle

A city with a rich historical past, Europe's largest marina - 50 years old this year and boasting over 5,000 moorings - the Ile de Ré is just a short stroll or pedal ride away, and festivals attract the crème de la crème every year... La Rochelle regularly tops the list of France's favorite cities. It's well worth a visit... and a gourmet one at that.

159 km

48 hours in the Périgord

Périgueux, on the banks of the Isle, Brantôme, on the banks of the Dronne, Nontron, capital of the cutlery industry, and all around, forests, hills, valleys, a landscape of astonishing greenery that contrasts with the image of a gentle countryside of ochre tones and pale stone houses. Green Périgord is both mysterious and familiar, a little Normandy in the land of the sun, geographically and naturally close to the Limousin.
