Super well organized format. Easy to use itineraries. Author very trustworthy — can’t wait to get on the road with it!! Big thanks!!

### 5/5 — A Travel Blogger’s Best Companion

*2021-03-28*

Writing about a region when you’ve never traveled there means there’s lots of pre-planning— much like a special holiday. Dordogne’s Best makes it easy. This app is filled with up-to-date facts on best places to eat, stay, and visit. All the festivals and tour dates are at your fingertips. The research is done. Thank you for simplifying my life and my travel!

### 5/5 — Dordogne at your fingertips

*2021-02-21*

I love everything about the Dordogne. Since at times it’s hard to have a cell connection or WiFi in the region, having itineraries and addresses in the phone is ideal! Plus the photos are dreamy!

### 5/5 — Can’t wait!

*2021-02-15*

Well, we’re all locked down due to COVID-19, but at least we can plan our next visit with this app. This is the third guide app from this writer I’ve downloaded and, as usual, it’s really well written and set out. Detail is amazing and I’m sure we’d miss out on lots without it. Can’t wait!

### 5/5 — Best travel planning app I’ve used

*2021-02-05, version 1.0*

Super well organized format. Easy to use itineraries. Author very trustworthy — can’t wait to get on the road with it!! Big thanks!!

### 4/5 — The Dordogne I need to revisit

*2021-02-03*

I thought I knew the Dordogne area quite well from a stay 25 years ago.
A beautiful evening dining out in one of the courtyard cafes in Sarlat, other memories of canoeing on the river and staying in one of the rustic villages come to mind.
Now I realise that I’ve barely touched the surface of a spectacular region of France. The detailed descriptions of places and experiences in this excellent guide make me want to go back and start again.
There’s so much more to see and do with the planned itineraries that I now know exactly how to make the best of my next visit. My sketchy memories can be fully coloured and completed using only a fraction of this guide leaving so much for further visits.

### 5/5 — Looking forward to exploring more

*2021-02-03*

Judging by accurate information on already familiar places, this app reminds me of travels past and tempts me to visit this region of France again when possible. In the meantime, great for armchair travelling and planning long summer explorations and leisurely meals!
