I’ll have a couple of days in Toulouse before heading over to Carcassonne for Convenanza.
Never been, hearing very positive things but haven’t got any specific recommendations yet… suggestions for places to stay, eat, visit, etc. very much appreciated!
Didn’t get to do much Toulouse bimbling as I hoped for when I arrived last year, as my luggage didn’t (if anyone gets caught out like this, the Centre Commercial Blagnac is close to the airport and was excellent for getting everything I needed!).
The Airbus museum is well worth a half-day if you’re even remotely interested in aviation. You can walk around inside a Concorde, and one of the A380 prototypes is literally integrated into the museum structure.
In the city itself, it’s worth having a swift half inside Grand Café Le Florida in Place du Capitole, to take in the Belle Epoque interior.
