Albi/Cordes Great to Visit - Albi and Cordes are well worth the trip. Albi has a fantastic market, an incredible cathedral and garden and a historic bridge over the Tarn River. Plus the Lautrec museum…but be careful of the museum hours as it closes for some hours in the middle of the day so you might want to do it first.

Lovely day out - Excellent driver. Albi a lovely place to visit. Would have loved more time there. The second stop was ok but the stop was too long. All in all I would recommend this trip.

Great value! - Great value! The driver was great and everything was right on schedule. I could have used more time in Albi but no real complaints. Better alternative than renting a car or trying to get there by train/Uber.

This gets you to where you need to be - This excursion is transportation ONLY. It gets you from point A to point B and back again. Others said that you could've taken a train instead. However, you might not be close to where you want to be and that is a waste of time. Wasting time on vacation is a waste of money. This gets you to where you need to go and back.

Albi & Cordes - Bust took me to exactly where I needed to be and didn't use the translation. Would spend less time in Albi.

Short and sweet.... - Short and sweet. Everything went as planned. The buses could have been better. It was pretty basic. No reclining seats. And most needed of all things was a usb connection to charge phones

Both cities are... - Both cities are definitely worth visiting; however, the driver was inexperienced. He drove through narrow roads and ended up having arguments with pedestrians due to choosing inappropriate routes, this also caused delays.

A suggestion - A short time in Albi, sharing the excursion with the other town detracted from a time that I think would have been better used only with Albi
