This guide expertly divides the Dordogne into touring areas - one per chapter. From the lofty chateaux, fortified medieval towns and green mountain slopes to the city of Bordeaux, a newly-appointed UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the beaches of Biarritz and the Atlantic coast. In every chapter, you will find up-to-date attraction, lodging, shopping and eating recommendations for individual towns, or for the area as a whole. This title takes you through: a drive among the Bordeaux vineyards; a tour from Bergerac to Castelnaud along the Dordogne River; and, a journey from Biarritz to Dax, a mixture of surfing, casinos and golf in the region"s foremost resorts.
