The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region
The Dordogne area of France runs from Bergerac to Rocamadour in the south, and to Perigueux and Brantôme in the north, including a great deal of interesting and beautiful things to see in between, in particular the Vezere valley. The area has almost no public transport, so you will need a car. This region of France is reputed to have 1001 castles and chateaux. Many of these castles are open to the public. The valley of the Vézère is often cited as the home of prehistory in Europe, and there are numerous prehistoric attractions to be found, ranging from the caves at Lascaux to dinosaur theme parks. There are some 175 prehistoric sites listed along this stretch of the River. The Dordogne commonly experiences summer temperatures in excess of 30degrees Celsius in July and August, with May, June and September also reliably warm and pleasant.
