perigueuxPerigueux and the surrounding Dordogne is the place for anyone who loves historic attractions but hates the accompanying crowds. With the exception of Paris, there is nowhere else in all of France with so many historic monuments and attractions. Perigueux is also an ideal place to sample regional flavors and food.

The Dordogne's historic sites feature a wide cross-section of time periods: prehistoric cave paintings, Roman remains, medieval fortified villages and 18th-century manors. This is an area with some of France's finest cuisine.
