* This itinerary is flexible, according to arrival time e.g. if guests choose to arrive on Wednesday's later afternoon flight, either into Carcassonne or Toulouse, making play impossible on that day, they may select a later departure flight on Sunday. In that case, it is possible to play on the Sunday morning, before departure, at either Carcassonne or Toulouse.
Please note that this is only one of our suggested itineraries. Our flexibility means that we are able to tailor-make a programme to suit your group requirements.
