Cahors trip planner

Almost entirely surrounded by water, Cahors is a lovely medieval peninsular town located in the heart of the red wine country. It is the business and cultural center of the Midi-Pyrénées region. As the capital of the Lot department, today the city is perhaps best known as the center of the famous AOC black wine known since the Middle Ages and exported via Bordeaux, long before that region developed its own viniculture industry. The site is geographically dramatic as it is contained on three sides within a U-shaped bend in the Lot River known as the presqu'île (peninsula) offering you many opportunities to explore on foot or by boat. With the Klarna Trips international travel planner, Cahors, and other destinations across the globe can be made central to your personalized travel plans.
