Light & Land Tour

The Dordogne and the Lot are magical regions of France — famed for truffles, greengages, walnuts, and superb local cuisine — yet still home to hidden, little-visited enchanting places that will provide us with some glorious photography.

The upper reaches of the Dordogne River wind westward across the Department of the Lot, carving through a landscape of striking contrasts. It sweeps through broad valleys lined with tobacco, walnut, and corn plantations, then flows deep and silent beneath towering limestone cliffs. Along the way, it picks its way past jewel-like villages, their tiny riverside vegetable plots, ‘potagers’, lining its banks, and their houses seeming almost to dip their toes into the water.
