  • Planning a road trip in southwest France and wondering where to start? In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, titled "A Road Trip in Southwest France: Top Tips and Destinations," host Annie Sargent chats with guest Craig Anderson about a two-week itinerary through Occitanie, from Montpellier to Toulouse. Get the podcast ad-free Craig, a seasoned traveler from the U.S., shares how he and his wife Pamela explored the region by rental car, with stops in Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert, Sète, Béziers, Carcassonne, Albi, Rabastens, and Toulouse. They dive into local experiences—like a wine tour with lunch at a winemaker's family farm, visiting Cathar castle ruins at Lastours, and eating oysters by the lagoon in Sète. You’ll hear why Montpellier's university-town vibe is so lively, how Béziers surprised them with its charm and renovation, and why staying inside the medieval walls of Carcassonne makes for a magical evening. In Toulouse, they booked both a guided history tour and food tours to connect deeper with the city. This episode is packed with practical travel tips, great food and wine stops, and ideas for travelers who want to experience more than just the highlights.
