Deep in the heart of France lies the Dordogne (rough pronunciation, Dordoyne). The region takes its name from the river that cuts a deep valley through the Massif Central, the mountainous plateau that covers a large part of the southern half of the country. It is a beautiful, undeveloped area full of lush green valleys and high pastures, blissfully removed from the hustle and bustle of the modern world.
Join fellow garden enthusiasts and wine lovers, and come and experience the magic and beauty of this tranquil backwater of rural France.

Join Marian St. Clair, as she teams up with Discover Europe once again this summer, to take you on an unforgettable journey through lush landscapes and history to experience the Chateaux & Gardens of the Loire Valley
