Day Five. Look forward to a day in France as we make our way to Rivesaltes where we board the Train du Pays Cathare et du Fenouilledes, known as the ‘Little Red Train’ due to its bright crimson paint.

Then it’s all aboard the Little Yellow Train where our carriage climbs upwards, scaling dramatic landscapes to the Pyrenean commune of Mont-Louis. This citadel was built in the seventeenth century to defend the border and
is now a World Heritage Site. After time to look around this amazing fortification, we return to our hotel by coach.
