What to expect

Let your guide take you along the cobbled streets of the medieval citadel and get a first-person feel of its past military power. Go on an unforgettable journey along the three kilometers of walls, rich with exceptional heritage.

    At checkout, select the guide you believe will suit you best, or just take a blind pick! Go with Julien for a visual arts focus, Gwen for a history focus, globetrotter Amelie for a cultural focus, or Anna for a more "offbeat" and unusual tour!

    The Classique 1h30 option itinerary follows the old streets, a passage between the walls, the exterior of the Comtal castle
    the basilica outside and inside subject to accessibility (closed on Sunday mornings and during religious ceremonies).

    Pick the Complete, 2-hour option if you want to add an in-depth study of the Cathar theme, the house of the inquisition and the gate of Aude.
