La Roque-Gageac

This charming medieval village is filled with exotic vegetation thanks to the protection provided by the dramatic cliff behind it.

About

A quiet medieval fishing and trade village, La Roque-Gageac rose in prominence during the Hundred Years War when the Bishops of Sarlat built their residence on the edge of town. Since the 12th century, the cliffs behind the town have been fortified with a cave keep, which was expanded through the 17th century thanks to the village’s strategic position. Today, La Roque-Gageac is recognized as one of the most beautiful villages in France with its gorgeous, golden stone houses nestled between steep cliffs and a lazy river. Essentially unchanged for centuries, the village is a jumble of charming cottages and grand manors, interspersed with tropical greenery - the cliffs protecting the village from harsh weather. The fort that defended from invaders, however, is visible but inaccessible - it was closed following a collapse.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.

All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.

For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.

Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
