Description

Explore the Gers countryside in a minivan with a private driver. Discover charming medieval villages, imposing castles, and enjoy an Armagnac tasting
Embark on an unforgettable day in the heart of the Gers, discovering exceptional villages and iconic heritage treasures of Gascony.

Your getaway begins in Fourcès, the only circular bastide in the region, whose ring-shaped layout around a shaded central square offers a rare and harmonious setting. Lined with elegant half-timbered houses, this charming square invites you to immediately immerse yourself in the peaceful and authentic atmosphere of the South West.

You'll continue to Larressingle, a spectacular fortified medieval city nicknamed "the little Carcassonne of the Gers." Classified as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France, it seduces with its perfectly preserved ramparts, stone towers, and timeless alleys that seem frozen since the Middle Ages.

The route continues to Montréal-du-Gers, a bastide founded in the 13th century, recognized for the richness of its historical and architectural heritage. You'll have free time to stroll under the arcades, discover the vestiges of the past, enjoy lunch in one of the village restaurants, or have a picnic.

Then head to La Romieu, a major stop on the Way of St. James and affectionately nicknamed the "village of cats." You'll discover its remarkable collegiate church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, whose Gothic architecture dominates the surrounding landscape and testifies to the spiritual importance of the place over the centuries.

The day continues in Lavardens, a hilltop village dominated by its impressive castle. This majestic building with monumental architecture hosts various cultural exhibitions throughout the year, including those by the cartoonist Perry Taylor, known for his humorous illustrations devoted to the landscapes and life of Gers.

Finally, you'll wrap up this Gascon immersion at Château de Cassaigne, the former residence of the bishops of Condom. You'll visit the remarkable 16th-century kitchen, which is beautifully preserved, before enjoying a friendly moment around a tasting of local specialties.

Like a true Gascon, you can enjoy the wines of the Côtes de Gascogne, the Floc, and the unmissable Armagnac, to end the day on a gourmet and authentic note.
