Sarlat-la-Canéda, Dordogne 🇫🇷

Summer may be over, but make sure to bookmark Dordogne for future travels. Perfect for medieval villages, truffle markets, and golden-stone streets straight out of a fairy tale.

My tip would be to base yourself in Sarlat-la-Canéda — the jewel of the Dordogne — and explore this impossibly charming corner of southwest France. Here’s your hit list:

-Wander Sarlat’s Old Town — cobbled lanes, honey-hued façades, and endless photo ops. Don’t miss the Cathedral of Saint-Sacerdos and the Viewpoint from the Ascenseur Panoramique.

-Shop & Snack at the Sarlat Market — Saturdays and Wednesdays are foodie heaven. Local foie gras, walnut cakes, and black truffles everywhere.

-Canoe the Dordogne River — paddle past castles and cliffside villages like La Roque-Gageac and Beynac-et-Cazenac.

-Château Hopping — explore the romantic Château de Beynac, the imposing Castelnaud-la-Chapelle, and the extraordinary Château des Milandes, once home to the icon Josephine Baker.

-Step Back in Time at Lascaux IV — see the world-famous prehistoric cave art recreated in spellbinding detail.

-Picnic in Marqueyssac Gardens — these sculpted boxwood gardens with sweeping valley views are pure magic at golden hour.

-Sip Dordogne Wines — head to nearby Bergerac or Pécharmant for easy day-trip tastings.

💫 Stay a few nights, eat everything, and let Sarlat’s medieval glow work its slow mag
