Dordogne from Bordeaux? Riviera

I want to see the cave paintings. As I will be in Nice and Bordeaux, I can fly to Dordogne region from one of these 2 places, rent a car? I have contacted Philipe (in Rick's book) who can also assist with a tour. How best to get in and out of the area. Any thoughts? This would be part of a 2-week trip with my husband starting in Paris, Loire Valley day trip and then train to Bordeaux few days with tour of wine region, flying to Nice, staying in Cannes, few tours in these areas too set up by local travel agent...

pick up a rental car in Bordeaux you can drive around to visit all the places you have on the list. there is an autoeurope agent next door to the Bordeaux train station. the Riviera doesn't require a car, you can return it before train to nice.
