On peut visiter Carcassonne avec une visite ordinaire… ou alors choisir Epok Tour pour une visite extraordinaire, où le guide n’est plus un guide, mais un chevalier de l’an 1255, qui nous invite à incarner nous aussi un personnage de cette époque pour mieux entrer dans les lieux. Merci à Messire Olivier pour cette magnifique visite !

Une très belle découverte alternative de la cité que nous connaissions pourtant bien depuis 10 ans que nous venons en vacances chez mon père ! Lui-même a apprécié et pourtant il l’a connaît par cœur !
Je vous recommande cette visite avec ce guide conférencier passionnant et passionné, intéressant et intéressé de nous faire découvrir la cité autrement !
