The village of Ainsa was the capital of the old Kingdom of Sobrarbe and is a magnificent example of medieval urban development. The historic quarter of the village of Ainsa is declared a Historic-Artistic site and is formed by a group of houses that are packed together in the most harmonious and uniform of ways. Only the slender tower of the collegiate church as well as the enormous premises of the castle, almost as big as the rest of the town, stand out from the rest of the village.

For our Delicious Dordogne tour we have chosen the very enjoyable town of Sarlat-la-Canéda, commonly known as Sarlat, as the central point. Sarlat is a beautiful medieval town and as modern history largely passed the historic centre by it is one of the towns most representative of 14th-century France. And with enough facilities a perfect central point to explore its surroundings in our Delicious Dordogne tour.
On the rides we are of course taking you on the winding roads along the river and making sure that you will enjoy the views on the river as well as a few of the castles that this area is also famous for. And we added one of our own "all time favourite views" to ride 2 of this tour.

You will be surprised by the lovely city of Bayeux, a town in Northern France in the department of Calvados and the region Normandy, very near to the English Channel. Enough to see and do in Bayeux itself with plenty of nice facilities. So Bayeux is a perfect central point to go and explore the area where the D-Day landings during Operation Overlord took place.
The rides will of course take you to the main highlights of the Operation Overlord sights, but will also show you that this part of Normandy has more to offer than just WW II related memorials.
