Carcassonne is a historically and culturally rich city in the south of France, and it’s possible to explore all of its most significant attractions with ease when you pick up an Avis hire car from Carcassonne Salvaza Airport.
Located just 3km outside the city, with a car rental it’s possible to be in the centre of Carcassonne in just a few minutes. From there, you’ll have easy access to all the main attractions nearby.
History enthusiasts should make a point of visiting Carcassonne as one of the main attractions here are the ancient city walls that date back 2,000 years. Visigoths, Moors, Gauls, Romans, Franks, and Cathers have all left their architectural mark on the fortifications. The Basilique Saint Nazaire is also worth a visit for its 12th century gothic facade. So too is the Pont Vieux, one of the few remaining medieval bridges in France, which connects the lower and upper towns.
Food lovers should not miss the opportunity to visit Fromagerie la Ferme, close to the market square. This cheese shop also has a taste for fine meats and wines, and it’s the perfect spot to purchase a few treats to take home. End your stay in Carcassonne with a decadent yet affordable meal at the cheapest Michelin star restaurant in France, Le Parc Franck Putelat. Order the crayfish lollipop for something out of the ordinary.
