Carcassonne: geheimen van de zelfgeleide rondleiding door de verdediging van het kasteel





Beschrijving
Hoe hou je een leger van 20.000 man tegen? Carcassonne had een antwoord : dubbele muren, meer dan duizend pijlspleten en een smalle gang tussen de wallen, ontworpen als moordzone. Deze zelfstandige audiowandeling neemt je mee naar de engineering van Europa's grootste middeleeuwse fort, van Romeinse fundamenten tot het beleg dat de Katharen ten val bracht. Je loopt door de ruimtes tussen de muren waar indringers gevangen zaten, staat waar Dame Carcas Karel de Grote voor de gek hield met een enkel varken, onderzoekt hoe pijlspleten verdedigers een dodelijk voordeel gaven en eindigt bij de Basiliek van Saint Nazaire met zijn opmerkelijke glas-in-loodramen. De tour speelt op de Tourific-app (iOS en Android), werkt volledig offline zodra het is gedownload en is beschikbaar in negen talen. Start wanneer je maar wilt, pauzeer wanneer je wilt en ga in je eigen tempo, geen vast schema, geen groep om bij te houden. Meer dan 20.000 reizigers hebben gebruik gemaakt van onze self-guided tours. De tour wordt geleverd met een volledige terugbetalingsgarantie.

Amazing and very interesting historic monument. I really enjoyed the castle and walking round the battlements, well worth it. Wear walking footwear.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed exploring the castle and battlements. Hope to see you on another Tourific walk soon.
Very nice walk. The accompanying tests make the city come alive. The different locations are easy to find with the attached map and texts.
Bedankt voor je mooie feedback. Fijn om te horen dat je van de wandeling hebt genoten!
It was a disaster. I paid for the audio tour for three people. We waited but no-one came. We have had zero experience after paying for audio at Carcassonne. I would like my money back but I'm not even sure if that's possible. It has been a terrible disappointment. My husband and I are from Australia. we have a house in France and we met with an old friend from 50 years ago. He was from Spain and was eager to experience Carcassonne. NOTHING!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are genuinely sorry to read about your disappointment, but we would like to respectfully clarify a few important points about your booking. The product you purchased is a self guided audio tour. This is stated clearly in the title of the listing, as well as throughout the description, the inclusions section, and the what to expect section. No live guide is included in this experience, and none was scheduled to meet you at any location. The format is designed for travellers to explore at their own pace using the audio narration on their phone. Immediately after your booking was confirmed, we sent you the full set of access instructions, including the link to download the audio content and a step by step guide on how to start the tour. These instructions are also available in your Viator booking confirmation email. At no point during or after your visit did we receive a message from you, either directly or through Viator support, letting us know that something was unclear or not working. Had you reached out, we would have responded within minutes and ensured you, your husband, and your friend from Spain had a wonderful first experience of Carcassonne together. We regret that the format of the product did not match what you were expecting, and we would have welcomed the chance to make it right at the time.
Nice visit. Arrived around 1:30 pm, we stayed there until 7 pm
Merci beaucoup ! Nous sommes ravis que la visite vous ait autant plu et que vous ayez pu en profiter pleinement pendant plusieurs heures.
I purchased this tour hoping for a detailed guide to the interior of the castle. However, this tour focuses more on the city of Carcassonne, including the exterior of the castle and other major sites, rather than guiding you through the individual areas inside the fortress. Although I did not walk the route using the audio guide, I read through much of the materials and listened to some of the recordings. I am very familiar with the history of this region, and I found the content to be thorough, accurate, and well researched. It provides strong historical context and highlights the most interesting and important sites in the city. The audio quality is good, though it appears to be AI-generated. The voice is pleasant, but there are some mispronunciations, and the pacing is slow. That said, playback speed can be adjusted. I especially appreciated that each stop includes a full transcript, which makes it easy to skim and choose what to listen to. If I were to do do this tour in person, I think I would prefer reading to listening at some of the sites. I think it's a major bonus that you can tailor the experience to your own pace and needs. The download process was quick and easy—I had access to the tour within minutes of purchasing. The seller was also very responsive to questions and concerns. While this was not the interior castle guide I originally hoped for, it is a high-quality, informative tour of Carcassonne. I would recommend it to visitors who want a well-organized and historically sound overview of the city.
Thank you for your detailed feedback! We appreciate your thoughtful comments and are glad you found the content accurate and well researched. We also value your notes on the audio and expectations, and we’ll use them to keep improving the experience.
The only thing which was not ok is that the cathedrale was closed! The organizers should know when it is open and inform the tourists, because the last four or five points are inside!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience you faced with the cathedral being closed. The opening times are included in the tour details, We’ll review how this information is presented to make it even clearer for future visitors. Best regards, The Tourific Team
Explanations easy to understand and interesting; it would be helpful if the station numbers are announced before each description, so that you are not wrong
Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, uns eine Bewertung zu hinterlassen! Wir freuen uns sehr darüber und freuen uns, dass Ihnen die Tour gefallen hat. Wir verbessern uns kontinuierlich anhand Ihres Feedbacks. Wir hoffen, Sie in Zukunft erneut in einer anderen Stadt begleiten zu dürfen. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Tourific-Team
The audio guide allows you to immerse yourself in the history of the facility in a comprehensive and detailed way. It is worth highlighting the precise and picture-rich explanation of the defences.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We really appreciate it and we are glad that you enjoyed the tour. We hope to serve you again in the future. Best regards, The Tourific team
The comments of the audio guide, paying in addition to the entrance (3€) per person, are quite light, as are the restoration of the buildings,bof
Merci d'avoir posté un avis. Nous apprécions tous les retours, car cela nous aide à améliorer nos services. Cependant, il semble que cet avis ait été erronément associé à notre tour auto-guidé. Le tour auquel vous faites référence semble concerner un guide à l'intérieur du site, ce qui n'est pas lié à notre expérience auto-guidée. Notre tour auto-guidé de Carcassonne est conçu pour explorer l'extérieur du château et les environs, offrant une expérience basée sur une application qui permet aux utilisateurs de découvrir à leur propre rythme sans entrer dans les bâtiments, sans frais supplémentaires au-delà de l'achat initial du tour. Il n'y a également aucun coût supplémentaire lié à l'entrée, car la visite se déroule à l'extérieur du site. Nous vous demandons de bien vouloir déplacer cet avis vers le site que vous avez expérimenté, car une mauvaise note porte un préjudice à notre tour, qui n'est pas l'objet de cet avis. Merci de votre compréhension !
Great explanation you can really put yourself in. Can recommend it to anyone you can drift in peace. Class
