Description
Explore the city of Rocamadour on a guided tour. Enjoy panoramic views, visit the sanctuaries, and walk the steps that pilgrims have climbed for centuries.
Meet your guide and set off on a walking tour of Rocamadour. Start by heading to the corniche to enjoy the most beautiful panorama of the village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Learn about the history of this unique place, which has been a pilgrimage site since the Middle Ages thanks to the presence of the Black Madonna and the relics of Saint Amadour.
Next, descend to the sanctuaries to discover the forecourt around which the churches are organized. Visit the Notre Dame Chapel and the Saint Sauveur Basilica. Then, take the steps that pilgrims have climbed on their knees for millennia, and sometimes still do today.
Finish your tour at the Place des Senhals, where you can then join the main street of the village of Rocamadour, where you will find places to eat or buy local products.
