We will visit buildings, memorials, statues, and places that have a link back to World War 2 and I will share my love of the subject, bringing the history to life by telling you the personal stories about the people involved using many photographs from the archives. The tour is fun, engaging, well-researched, and insightful, but never dry. I look forward to journeying back in time with you! We do not visit La Cité (The medieval castle) We meet at the restaurant the Brasserie de 4 Temps.

Excellent Tour, very informative, Paul the tour guide was promptly on time, picked an easy meeting spot, was extremely knowledgeable in the facts of WW2 , the tour is great for WW2 fans, our 13/15 yo engaged the whole way, great stops and great time spent on tour, stopped for a no rush coffee ( self paid) which was a great idea and gave us a break. Weather was 25’, which made it very comfortable, so I would recommend hats / suncream and good walking shoes etc in the heights of summer. 5* (note this does not include sightseeing at Cite Carcasonne (castle) it’s all around the main town itself. The Cite is another 1/2 day worth seeing about 2 km away from your end.

Superb tour for anyone interested in WW2 and the resistance. Put together with pictures, stories of individual hero’s and local landmarks. 2:15 walking the back roads of Carcassonne, wear comfortable shoes and light clothes if it’s hot, take water as you do not pass any shops.
