In the heart of the southwest, between Bordeaux and Toulouse, the Lot-et-Garonne embodies the sweetness of French living. With its green and peaceful landscapes, its towns and its bastides, its generous gastronomy, it offers the guarantee of relaxing and whole holidays.

The Lot-et-Garonne is an essential destination for green tourism and invites you to discover its beautiful cities of character. In Agen, walk through the alleys of the historic centre and enjoy the half-timbered houses, the Chapelet tower and the Penitents tower. Then visit Saint-Caprais Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with many styles due to the length of its construction. But also admire the superb Canal Bridge and the building and collections of the rich Fine Arts Museum. Then go to Villeneuve-sur-Lot and be amazed by the Cieutats bridge, the Pujols gate, the Sainte-Catherine church and the Lamothe castle.

Continue your discovery of the Lot-et-Garonne by the many medieval villages it shelters. The department indeed counts no less than 42 bastides, cities built in the Middle Ages around a central square decorated with arcades. The most famous of them is undoubtedly Monflanquin, classified among the most beautiful villages of France. While visiting it you will be able to admire the house of the Black Prince, the church Saint-André and the castle of Roquefère. Then enjoy the bastides of Pujols, nestled behind its impressive ramparts, Villeréal, with its imposing 14th century wooden hall or Vianne, built on the banks of the Baïse. But also take the time to admire the pretty villages of Nérac (castle, church), Beauville, Prayssas....

During your stay, take advantage of the wide open spaces to enjoy many activities. With 4500 km of marked trails, the Lot-et-Garonne is a real paradise for hikers who can take the Clunisien road linking the priory of Moirax to the cloister of Moissac. By bike, follow the superb canal des 2 mers under a plane tree vault or follow the Véloroute de la vallée du Lot. But many other leisure activities await you : river walks, canoeing, water parks, adventure parks, golf, horse riding... In the evening, after all these efforts, sit on the terrace of a good restaurant to enjoy local products : Marmande tomatoes, foie gras, confits, strawberries, prunes of Agen, Buzet wines and Côtes de Duras...
