At the end of our time in France (Paris 3 nights, Cassis 2 nights, Avignon 4 nights, Carcassonne 2 nights, all by train or hired driver with a van) we have 2 days and 1 night before we fly out of Paris CDG in mid May. We have heard so much about the Dordogne and Loire valleys, but don't know if there is enough time to enjoy either of those in this limited time. We will not have car. We can take a series of trains from Carcassonne through the Dordogne and up to Saint-Pierre-des-Corps near Tours, spend the night, take a van tour of a few castles the following morning, and then continue with a TGV from Saint-Pierre-des-Corps to CDG airport before we fly out early the next morning, but not sure if there is a better itinerary for this very short amount of time. And no, we really don't want to rent a car. Any thoughts? Other places on the train lines between Carcassonne and CDG that are worth seeing very briefly?
