    Unless you have children, save your money to visit the authentic caves nearby. They are all very…read morenice and have great guide as. This site is a fake cave made to look like the Chauvet Cave. It's very Disney like in its promotional style. We visited and toured the fake cave using the English audio guide. It would appear the English audio is not compatible with the tour. We were almost three spots behind the rest of the tour as the tour moved thtough.The tour guide became upset that we were behind and rushed us through without seeing the last two stops. My partner is fluent in French and told her we were not in sync with the rest of the group but she insisted we needed to leave with them. Her manner was one of annoyance. We went to the ticket desk to see if we could be placed back where we were abruptly asked to leave to finish our tour We were given an email address but received no response to our request to finish the tour. We have a house nearby, so we were hoping to know what all was there in order to offer the experience to guests. We never received a reply back.

    This is a state of the art recreation of Chauvet cave, and it's beautiful. The guide in the cave…read morewas fantastic, the exhibition was interesting, and the Aurignacian gallery had lots of great facts and some amazing technology to play with. I highly recommend this wonder-making experience - it's beautiful and has a great gift shop too. The gift store has a small English section, but others a lot of good items to purchase. The cafe was only open from 12:00 to 14:00, there was a small bar with only crepes for food, so eat, or bring food.

    Worthwhile historic stop to marvel at Roman engineering 2000 years ago. Pay to park, but no need…read morefor tickets if you just want to walk down to the bridge and / or picnic. A view cafe is located at the base of the hill. Numerous swimming holes are available along the river.

    This place is nothing short of incredible! It's amazing to see something back home (in Washington…read morestate) that's over a hundred years old and we get really excited about a tree that's 300-400 years old. This structure has been around for 2 millennia and remains structurally sound - I feel like if they could get a waterway to stand for 2000 years, we should be able to figure out how to make a roof last more than 10 years! We opted for a group tour and despite not speaking French (our friends did) we learned a lot via those who could translate for us! The aqueduct traveled nearly 30 miles and only fell 35 feet from top to bottom. It also went out of commission in 500 AD due to calcium build up in the channel. The tour takes you through the actual waterway up top and provided some unparalleled views. We went on a cloudy day and I can only imagine how amazing this thing must have looked two thousand years ago on a sunny day. I can imagine it looks incredible in a sunny day today! If you have a chance to go here, you should do it. It's incredible from an engineering, history and general interest perspective!
