| The Black Périgord, the most touristic of the Périgords |
Among the four Perigords, the black Périgord is one that has the most important tourist wealth. With its landscapes, its rivers and its sites, it is a place conducive to holidays, short breaks and long weekends

| Sarlat la Canéda |
The town of Sarlat la Caneda is undoubtedly one of the hangouts lighthouses of the Perigord. It is an ancient medieval city beautifully preserved and restored. In season, it is a bustling city with its market, its guided tours and festivals.

| La Vallée de la Vézère
|
The Vézère Valley is famous for the ranking of its many prehistoric sites to the world heritage of humanity by UNESCO.
There are the Lascaux cave, but also sites such as Font de Gaume, Cap Blanc. The city of Eyzies can rightly take advantage of world capital of prehistory due
significant number of sites it hosts, national museum and its interpretive centre. A little less touristy than the Valley of the Dordogne,
the Vézère Valley offers peace and tranquility. It is ideal for family outings, trips and sports activities (ATV).
Beyond the prehistory, the Vézère Valley offers as the set of the Périgord an exceptional terroir and very well preserved heritage sites |
