Really nice trip that took the hassle out of getting to Carcassone and organising tickets. You get plenty of time to explore the city on your own and at your own pace which was great. The meeting point was easy to find and well staffed.

We were very lucky that...
Gareth_T, Dec 2023
We were very lucky that the weather was bright & sunny (it was mid December) so we had great views from the battlements across the town below and to the mountains in the distance. Everything went as planned and the coach that transported us was very clean and comfortable so overall a very good trip.
Stunning 😍
Anonymous, Sep 2023
The walk along the rampart, watching some sword fighting and the medieval camp displaying how people lived in medieval times. The architecture was stunning and is well maintained.
Disappointed
GraceAnn_C, Sep 2023
All you offered was a bus ride and a castle ticket on a day whem entrance was free! No one accompanied the participants except the driver who spoke only french to tell us we arrived. Not even a recorded narration on the coach to tell us the history of our destination.
Great Day Trip!
Valerie_S, Sep 2023
The tour only includes ticket for the bus ride and entrance to the chateau. Would recommend the bus driver put a sign in the window stating he is the Viator Tour Bus as there was another red bus at the pick up in Carcassonne and several people got on the wrong bus. Lovely day exploring the Chateau and the old city.
Great day!

Amazing self guided tour in Carcassonne and Comtale Castle a worth a visit when you are in Toulouse. Entrance to the castle is free when you book the tour in Viator. Enjoy the cafes and restaurants in the walled city.
Convenient transportation tool
OliverYasuhito_I, Aug 2023
It is a convenient transportation tool, not the tour coz no guide with us. They give us a ticket for castle before boarding bus and it was quite helpful because otherwise we need to bear a long que to buy ticket at that castle.
A bus ride to and from Carsconne
Nancy_H, Jul 2023
Basically, a round trip bus ride to and from Carscnne with a ticket to visit the castle. It's a very intetesting place to visit!

The ride by bus was good but the p/up could be at 14:30 instead of 16:30 for my opinion the day was a little to long
A lovely visit
LARAINE_A, Jun 2023
I enjoyed seeing the town and the Castle but most of all,I loved seeing the surrounding countryside,which is beautiful.I liked the freedom of not being herded around.
Walking thru the castle...
AnnMarie_N, May 2023
Walking thru the castle and lunch at a lovely restaurant. I think the tour could give some historical information in written form. The tour was actually just a bus ride to Carcassonne and back. The bus driver did not communicate in any way. It was a pleasant experience .
Lovely day out

High handling charge
Midori_H, Sep 2018
The tour itself was good, but I found that people who joined the same tour through different companies paid less. Our tour guide told me viator tends to charge a higher handling fee than others. I will book tours directly through bus companies next time.
Disappointed
Antoinette F, Sep 2018
When we booked this tour we were under the impression that it would be a guided tour. When we went to the representative office in Toulouse we were advised that there would be no guide, then the 2nd surprise was the price! The girl at the office said that the price of Euro 21 is for just the bus. When we showed her the receipt that we paid Euro 30 she said that there is nothing that can be done from her end!!! Very unhelpful and a disappointing experience from Viator. I booked this tour to have a guide otherwise we would have gone to Carcassone by train and it would have been cheaper! We received the same experience the following day as we had another tour booked to Albi and Cordes sur Ciel with Viator.
Endroit riche d’histoire mais rempli de commerçant
Dominic_D, Aug 2023
Superbe endroit mythique mais beaucoup trop touristique durant l’été. Ne prenez pas une journée complète, ça n’en vaut pas la peine. En 2-3 heures vous aurez vu et revue.
Magnifique journee a...
Gaetane_D, Jul 2023
Magnifique journee a recommander a tous Les lieux sont a decouvrir L'autobus propre et confortable Vraiment une belle excursion en famille Se promener dans la forteresse a decouvrir le temps Beaucoup de commerces et restaurant
Ciudad preciosa para ir a pasar un día
Maria_C, Aug 2022
Castillo ideal. Ciudad medieval. No apto para mínusvalidos. Dejamos el carrito de bebé a la entrada del castillo
Maravilha medieval
Helena F, Sep 2018
Maravilhosa cidade de Carcassone colocou-me a sonhar na minha amada História. Assim julguei-me uma simples habitante no século XVI com uma lojinha de docês para partilhar os meus segredos e saber as novas dos senhores do Castelo. Adorei!
