We have been here several times. Adults and kids alike enjoy this unique experience with the monkeys running wild around you, gobbling up the popcorn from the tourists. It’s quite a drive (approx 1.5 hours) but Rocamadour has plenty of other attractions and restaurants to offer so it can be a good touristy day out.

This is the local village. It’s tiny but worth a look around at the exquisite medieval church and buildings. Hosts a massive bric-à-brac market 15th August each year.
