Great tour - We had a great afternoon with our guide, Benoit. Domme is a pretty village & we enjoyed the boat ride very much. Begnat & the drive by Castel Noud were great, too.

Martin’s #1 fans - We did the cave tour the day before and were delighted to see our guide Martin again. It was a smaller group to Rocamadour, so it was fewer people interrupting his excellent storytelling. We began at the end of the via dolorosa and worked our way down, which is easier than going up the stairs. The shrine of the Black Madonna was intensely sacred. Like the caves, don’t take pictures of her! Sit and contemplate the mysteries.

Spectacular! - Our trip to Rocamadour was beyond excellent. We did not even notice the cloudy, drizzly weather because Bernoit took such great care of us. It is a tour I will never forget--I highly recommend it.

Best way to visit Rocamadour…………unless you’re a pilgrim on foot - Brilliant tour to Rocamadour. Don’t have to be religious to take in its significance. Lovely meander there and back through the Perigord. Highly recommended

Finally got to Rocamadour - Rocamadour is an amazing site to see! I highly recommend it. Our guide Benoit was not at all animated or interesting. After traveling with Anne, guide extraordinaire, the day before on another Ophorus tour, this one felt flat. It was a rainy day but the weather had nothing to do with it. There was no enthusiasm on the part of the guide. I was very, very disappointed that we did not get to go on the ramparts. There is a machine where you put in a 2-euro coin and it gives you a ticket to scan to open the gate for access to the rampart. Three of us tried it and it did not work. We put in our coins and scanned our tickets but the gate did not open. A few minutes later, we saw a large group of about 20 to 25 people led by a guide. They all went in to the ramparts immediately, within a minute. The guide must have had a key or other access to the ramparts that our guide did not have. So, we lost money, and did not get on the ramparts! That was a huge disappointment, since I had been looking forward to seeing Rocamadour more than anything else in my trip in the Dordogne.
