About this experience
The Private Guided Tour Cité de Carcassonne takes visitors through one of the best-preserved medieval fortified cities in Europe, located in the Aude department of southern France. The walled citadel, which dates to Gallo-Roman foundations and was extensively restored by architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc in the 19th century, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring a double ring of ramparts, 52 towers, and the Château Comtal at its centre. On a private tour, a dedicated guide leads small groups along the inner and outer ramparts, through the Porte Narbonnaise, and around the Basilica of Saints Nazarius and Celsus, explaining the site's role in Cathar history and the Albigensian Crusade. For more on things to do in Carcassonne, the city also offers the lower town and Canal du Midi nearby. Tour tickets typically cover guide fees, with entry to specific monuments confirmed at booking.
