<p><strong>Ancient Era:</strong> The area surrounding Toulouse was first inhabited during the Paleolithic period. The arrival of the Celtic Volques-Tectosages tribe in the 2nd century BC spurred significant growth.</p>
<p><strong>Roman Era:</strong> Under Roman rule, Toulouse (then known as Tolosa) flourished as a key city. The city was fortified with walls, and the monumental Porte Narbonnaise gate was constructed.</p>
<p><strong>Medieval Period:</strong> Following the fall of the Roman Empire, Toulouse became the capital of the Visigoth kingdom. It later transitioned to Carolingian rule and was incorporated into the Kingdom of Aquitaine.</p>
<p><strong>Renaissance:</strong> The Renaissance ushered in a golden age for Toulouse, fueled by the lucrative trade of woad, a plant used for blue dye. Wealthy merchants constructed impressive mansions, many of which stand today, like the <strong>Hôtel d'Assézat.</strong></p>

[name] => Journey to Lourdes: Private Day Tour from Bordeaux
[durationMinutes] => 600
[minimumNoticeMinutes] => 4320
[shortDescription] => A One Day Historic Tour To A Most Important City. Our unique day trip from Bordeaux to Lourdes includes the visit of the sanctuary as well as the most important sites linked to Bernadette Soubirous. Free time for personal discovery.
[description] => <p>Follow the Footsteps of a Saint Through This Prized Pilgrimage Town</p><p><b>Meet your English speaking local guide</b></p><p>Depart for the town of Lourdes on this full day trip from Bordeaux. In the morning we will come and pick you up at your centrally located hotel in Bordeaux. Meet your English speaking local guide who will go over the itinerary and program of the day. Then it will be time to board your premium air conditioned minivan and depart for Lourdes.</p><p><b>Arrive in the town of Lourdes</b></p><p>Following the reports that Our Lady of Lourdes had appeared to Bernadette Soubirous on a total of eighteen occasions in 1858, Lourdes has developed into a major place of Roman Catholic pilgrimage and of miraculous healing. The 150th Jubilee of the first marian apparition took place on 11 February 2008 with an outdoor mass attended by more than ten thousand pilgrims.</p><p>Today, around six million people visit Lourdes each year. Due to the consistent stream of pilgrims and tourists, the sanctuary of our lady of Lourdes has become the second most important center of tourism in France, following Paris. It is now the third most important international Catholic pilgrimage and religious site.</p><p><b>Visit the Sanctuary</b></p><p>Upon arrival, your private tour will begin with the visit of the Sanctuaries of Lourdes. The ensemble is the largest pilgrimage site of the town. Here, all the major churches are located as well as the grotto where the apparitions of the Virgin Mary took place. Visits include the Crypt, the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, the Basilica of the Rosary and the impressive underground Basilica Saint Pius X.</p><p><b>Stop at the Grotto</b></p><p>Walk towards the Grotto of the apparitions and enter beneath the rock. See the spring and the famous statue of Our Lady of Lourdes, an unforgettable experience. The Grotto is the site of the extraordinary events which took place in 1858. The niche where the statue is placed marks the place where the Virgin Mary most often stood. Iit is like a window that opens onto the kingdom of God.</p><p>The Grotto is a place of prayer, hope, peace, respect, unity and silence. When passing through the Grotto or standing in front of it, each person has his or her own personal understanding of what it means. There, it is possible to fill bottles of the water of Lourdes and take time to meditate near the Grotto.</p><p><b>Free time for lunch (at own expense) in Lourdes</b></p><p>After the morning visit, it will be time for lunch. There are numerous opportunities in Lourdes so don't hesitate to ask your guide for suggestions or recommendations.</p><p><b>On the footsteps of Bernadette</b></p><p>Your full day guided tour continues in the afternoon as you follow your guide on the footsteps of Bernadette. During this walking tour in town, visit the house of Bernadette – the Boly Mill and then reach the ‘Cachot’, the small room where the family lived in the most difficult times.</p><p><b>Visit the Boly Mill</b></p><p>Bernadette Soubirous was born in this mill house on the 7th of January of 1844. She lived in the water-mill with her parents for ten years. At that time, it was part of the numerous water-mills located on the edges of the river called “the Lapacca” and flowing into the river Gave de Pau.</p><p>Inside you will discover the bedroom where Bernadette was born, the kitchen and the ancient water-mill with its grindstones. After 10 years of a happy life in the Mill, a set of tragic events will force the family to leave the Mill, not able to pay the rent anymore.</p><p><b>Visit the Cachot</b></p><p>By 1857, the Soubirous family fell on hard times and were obliged to move from the Boly Mill to what was a former prison, 'Le Cachot' (the cell). This small 16 square meters room (170 square feet) became the home of the family that was composed of the parents, Bernadette, her sister and her two brothers. It is at this time that the apparitions took place the first of which takes place on February 11, 1858. </p><p>After the visit, it will be time to return to Bordeaux and that will be the end of our services. Please note that this tour requires 2 adults minimum to operate.</p><p><b>The baths</b></p><p>It is possible to take part in a bathing experience in Lourdes. “Go and drink in the spring and wash yourself there!” These words of the Virgin Mary to Bernadette during one of the apparitions inspired the creation of the baths near the Grotto in which the pilgrims are immersed. Whether a believer or not, you are all invited to this very profound experience. Enter a bath filled with water from the spring that flows in the Grotto of the apparitions and experience something unique.</p><p>If you would like to experience the bathing in Lourdes, please let our team of travel experts know and they will organize your Lourdes travel program accordingly. Please note that opting for the bathing experience in Lourdes requires some organization.</p><p></p><p>The bathing experience takes place in the early afternoon and ideally you will need to be there early to be certain to participate. On some days, the queue can be quite long. There are separate waiting lines for women and men as well as bathing cubicles.</p>

[shortDescription] => A private Bordeaux Wine Tour Taking in Some of Bordeaux’s Most Famous Appellations. Discover the vineyards, visit top Chateau Wineries and Taste fabulous Medoc & Saint Emilion red wines with a local guide expert in Bordeaux wines.
[description] => <p>Embark on an unforgettable full day wine tour exploring the renowned appellations of Medoc and Saint Emilion in Bordeaux. Taste exquisite red wines, including cabernet sauvignon blends and Merlot-based vintages, guided by our local wine expert. With Ophorus, experience a personalized and expertly guided sightseeing tour that showcases the hidden gems and prestigious wines of this celebrated French wine region.</p><p><b>Meet Your English-Speaking Expert Guide and Driver, Specializing in Bordeaux Wines</b></p><p>Start your day with a pick-up from your hotel or accommodation in Bordeaux, where you'll meet your knowledgeable English-speaking driver/guide, an expert in Bordeaux wines. They will provide you with an overview of the day's program and itinerary before you board our comfortable and air-conditioned Mercedes Minivan, which can accommodate up to 8 people. Enjoy the convenience of an on-board P/A system that ensures you can hear the commentary from your guide no matter where you're seated. </p><p><b>Explore the Left Bank Wine Region of Medoc</b></p><p>Depart from Bordeaux and venture into the Medoc wine region, located on the left bank of the Gironde River. This prestigious area encompasses the famous communes of St Estèphe, Pauillac, Margaux, and St Julien. Spanning approximately 60 km from north to south and 10 km wide, the Medoc boasts around 10,600 hectares of vineyards producing about 50 million liters of red wine annually. The primary grape variety used is Cabernet Sauvignon, along with Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.</p><p>During the morning, visit a carefully selected wine estate classified as Grand Cru Classé, Château, or cru bourgeois. Immerse yourself in the property's history as an expert guide leads you through the technical installations, explaining the transformation of grapes into wine. Explore the cellars and savor a tasting session of the Chateau wines, guided by commentary that enhances your understanding of the region's flavors and aromas.</p><p><b>Experience the Charm of Saint Emilion Wines and the Medieval Village</b></p><p>After your Medoc experience, cross the Gironde Estuary to delve into the right bank wines of Saint-Emilion and Pomerol. Discover the enchanting Saint Emilion wine region, known for its dominant grape variety, Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Franc. The unique climate and cool soils make it challenging for Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to fully ripen, resulting in wines with excellent aging potential.</p><p>Visit a carefully selected winery in the Saint-Emilion appellation, where you'll indulge in a wine tasting session and explore the nuances of these exceptional wines. Conclude the winery visit and proceed to the medieval village of Saint-Emilion, where you'll embark on a short walking tour with your guide (please note that the order of visits may vary). Enjoy some free time to further explore the village at your own pace.</p><p><b>Return to Bordeaux and Conclude the Wine Tour</b></p><p>As the tour comes to an end, we will head back to the UNESCO World Heritage ci |
