Dordogne-P\u00e9rigord Tourisme is the Comit\u00e9 D\u00e9partemental du Tourisme de la Dordogne.\nDiscover a rich and varied department!\nFrom prehistory with Lascaux, villages and castles, to historic sites and unspoilt nature, everything can be discovered on foot, by bike, canoe or car. <\/p>\n\n

The Dordogne is the epitome of what France has to offer, one of the nuggets of French tourism with a rich cultural, natural, historical and gastronomic offering and a concentration of heritage sites that is exceptional on the scale of a single territory….<\/p>\n\n

Let’s meet Perrine Buffi\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

1 – Could you briefly describe yourself and the mission of Dordogne P\u00e9rigord Tourisme? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

I’m Perrine Buffi\u00e8re, Community Manager with the Comit\u00e9 D\u00e9partemental du Tourisme de la Dordogne.\nI’m originally from the Dordogne and I love to travel around my department, so I’m always up to date with the best spots and addresses.\nMy curiosity also helps me find the inspiration I need for my various publications. <\/p>\n\n

The CDT is a monitoring tool, a sounding board and a facilitator, providing personalized support to private and public operators on behalf of the Conseil D\u00e9partemental de la Dordogne.\nIts aim is to increase consumption and the quality of services and tourist experiences offered to our visitors.\nTo this end, it has decided to create a cultural event as a call product and communication lever to launch the season and position the Dordogne P\u00e9rigord brand at the heart of “trendy and authentic” destinations that can’t be ignored…right from the start of the new season.\nOur 4 core businesses are animation, qualification, marketing and promotion. <\/p>\n\n

2 – How does your annual Ch\u00e2teaux en f\u00eate event promote your destination?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Our Ch\u00e2teaux en f\u00eate event offers a unique opportunity for families and friends to enjoy exclusive, festive, entertaining, cultural, educational, sporting and gastronomic experiences.\nIn addition to a unique program of events at the must-see ch\u00e2teaux usually open to visitors, many historic private residences open their doors for the occasion. <\/p>\n\n

The owners of castles, manor houses, manor houses… open their homes and offer exceptional activities, events and festivities around their monument to share their history.<\/p>\n\n

The emphasis is therefore on a destination with a lively, animated and dynamic heritage, an ideal destination for entertainment of all ages.<\/p>\n\n

3 – What was the feedback for this 2022 edition?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This event brings together more than 70 castle owners, many of them private, with a shared ambition: to make accessible a heritage that is sometimes little-known, and to bring the region to life in an extraordinary way.<\/p>\n\n

With nearly 300 varied events in the 2 d\u00e9partements of Dordogne and Lot-et-Garonne, and an estimated 50,000 visitors, feedback has been positive overall.<\/p>\n\n

\u00be of guests are satisfied with the attendance, which remains essentially local and regional.\nMany of them appreciate the contact and exchanges with visitors, who are delighted to discover beautiful homes and take advantage of events, more than 50% of which are free. <\/p>\n\n

4 – Which activities\/visits attract the most visitors to the Dordogne? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

It has to be said that the choice is vast, whatever the visitor’s desires.\nFrom prehistory to the underground world, caves, chasms, ornate shelters, castles, bastides, the most beautiful villages, towns of art and history, theme parks, museums, natural sites, local produce…they’re spoilt for choice.\nThere is a strong need to disconnect, to get back to nature, to enjoy peace and quiet, and to use soft mobility such as hiking or cycling.\nVisitors are also looking for authentic, sincere encounters, and now want to take the time to discover the Dordogne and P\u00e9rigord, and appreciate the short circuits, producers’ stores and village markets. <\/p>\n\n

The Best Of includes ch\u00e2teaux (such as Les Milandes or Biron), remarkable parks and gardens (Eyrignac and its Jardins \u00e0 la Fran\u00e7aise, the water gardens at Carsac-Aillac with their lotus and water lily collections)…The largest chasm in P\u00e9rigord (Proumeyssac), a park that takes you back to the heart of the 1900s (Le Village du Bournat) and, of course, Lascaux, the international center of parietal art, for a high-tech immersion in prehistory, are among the most visited sites every year.<\/p>\n\n
