100% electric and 100% silent, the infamous tuk-tuk comes to Saint Emilion to take you on a tour or the town and the vineyards that surround it.

This is a great outing for a family as you will have the chance to see these magnificent wild boar in a natural environment where they forage and feed in the forests of oak and chestnut trees.

This traditional wooden barge will take you on a picturesque cruise down the river Dordogne from La Roque-Gageac to the Castelnaud bridge.

The dining rooms allow for views of the surrounding vineyards and rolling hills. Drinks can also be enjoyed in the small library or among the chestnut trees.

This elegant and sophisticated two Michelin star restaurant offers creative dishes designed by chef Cédric Béchade, who plays with colours and textures in his cuisine.

The young chef at this restaurant, David Beyney, produces creative French cuisine using local products. It is a real gem of a restaurant, located high in the Périgord village of Audrix. There is also a small attractive hotel attached.

Located 50 yards from the Vieux Logis Hotel, the Bistrot de la Place has exposed wooden beams, simple yet effective place settings and makes you feel immediately comfortable in the fuss free, cosy setting in the centre of Trèmolat.

Set in an inviting tranquil hotel just a short distance from the centre of medieval Brantome. A meal typical of the region including duck, foie gras and of course truffles can be enjoyed in the spacious restaurant or under the mulberry trees on the terrace in the summer.

With a terrace set alongside the Vezerie river and within a hotel clad in Virginia Creeper and decorated with heart, warmth and style, the restaurant is hugely inviting.

The Palais de la Raymondie stands next to the market hall in the heart of the medieval town of Martel. This museum contains objects dating from paleolothic, neolithic and Gallo-Roman occupations.

Also known as the Truffle train, it will take you on a journey of 8 miles (13 Km) round trip, more than 80 meters (260 feet) high cliff, giving a wonderful panorama of the Dordogne Valley.

Housed in the Hôtel de Labenche, a Renaissance building from the 16th century, this museum traces the archaeological history of the city from prehistoric to the middle ages. It has a large collection of finds and includes the oldest preserved Eucharistic dove in Europe which dates to the 11th century. Coming to more recent history, it has collections representing the cultural development of the city and a collection of English Mortlake tapestries from the 17th century.

This museum in the centre of Brive covers the Second World War and the Resistance. It is housed in the former home of Edmond Michelet, a key resistor who was arrested by the Germans in 1943 and sent to the concentration camp at Dachau. He survived and returned to France in 1945 and went on to become Minister for the Armed Forces under the de Gaulle government. His studies on the Resistance won him literary prizes and his home has become a study centre as well as a museum. Many of the museum's collections were gifts from former resistance fighters and it houses an exceptional collection of over 400 propaganda posters.

The village of Carennac grew up around a clunian priory founded in the middle of the 11th-century. This beautiful church and cloister are at the centre of the village.

This well-preserved chateau is now home to the Heritage Centre for Art and History of the Dordogne region, with a permanent exhibition that explains the wealth, heritage, art and architecture of this region.

The town of Martel is not, in fact, famous for the brandy (that's Martell with two ll's) but is well known as the capital of truffles and a great producer of walnuts, two of the region's specialities.

Carennac has been previously voted 'One of the 'Most Beautiful Villages in France' and it's easy to see why. The blonde stone and red-brown roofs of its buildings have tall chimneys and are adorned with creepers that turn red in the autumn.

This medieval town on a bend in the Dordogne grew around its 9th century Benedictine abbey of Saint-Pierre.

A base for exploring the region, Souillac has a medieval past and is filled with Romanesque-style sculptures. 

Picturesque village typical of Quercy. The traditional houses have corbelled fronts, brown-tiled roofs and pigeon lofts built into their walls.

The riverside town of Saint-Céré is a lovely place to base yourself for excursions in the region. The La Bave river winds its way through the centre of the town and its old buildings have been carefully restored, retaining their timber vaulting or Renaissance stonework.
