5 days in Toulouse Itinerary

On the Garonne River, Toulouse is on the site of an ancient Roman settlement, and even today, many of the smaller streets follow their Roman counterparts, while many of the red brick buildings are built in a pseudo-Roman style.

Venture out of the city with trips to Carcassonne Center (Cité de Carcassonne & Le Pont Vieux (The Old Bridge)), Albi (Les Jardins de la Berbie, Cathedrale Sainte-Cecile, &more) and Escape Game S Room Agency (in Montauban). There's much more to do: don't miss a visit to Le Capitole, take in the spiritual surroundings of Basilique Saint-Sernin, take in the views from Pont Neuf, and ponder the world of politics at Theatre du Capitole.
