Das Department Languedoc-Roussillon erstreckt sich von der Grenze mit Spanien im Süden bis zur Provence im Norden und ist sehr abwechslungsreich. Es ist für seine Weinherstellung bekannt, daher gibt es keinen Mangel an endlosen Weinbergen und Kellereien, die man besuchen kann.
Die Resorts entlang des Mittelmeers sind im Sommer gut besucht, aber vom Stil sehr anders als die Côte d'Azur.
Im Inland sieht es ganz anders aus: Kilometerlange Felder offenbaren eine rege Landwirtschaft und verstreut findet man historische Städte wie Nîmes, Narbonne und Carcassonne. Man befindet sich hier schließlich im Land der Katharer und man kann hier zahlreiche mittelalterliche Burgen, Schlösser, Städte und Dörfer entdecken, die zur Verteidigung gegen die Kreuzritter erbaut wurden.
In diesem Department kann man die Natur in vollen Zügen erleben. Es gibt Naturparks und Naturschutzgebiete, grüne Täler und Hügel, ruhige Flüsse und Kanäle – bis man auf eine Mauer trifft, die Pyrenäen. Diese Landschaft zieht Wanderer und Radfahrer gleichermaßen an.
Gutes Essen und der dazu passende Wein sind ein Teil der Lebensart dieser Region. Zum typischen Essen zählen Cassoulet mit Fleisch, frische Meeresfrüchte, Muscheln und Austern. Als einer der größten Weinhersteller in Frankreich hat man hier eine herausragende Auswahl an Weinen.
Das lebhafte Montpelier ist die Hauptstadt von Languedoc und Standort des Hauptflughafens. Weitere Flughäfen in der Region sind Perpignan, Carcassonne und Toulouse.

Becca Cox2023-02-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ilonka and the team are absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend them! They are so helpful, proactive and thorough and they make booking a holiday a very seamless and straightforward experience! They have beautiful properties and just “get” travelling with children. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay in any of the places they recommend! We’ve booked multiple trips with them and will continue to do so - it really does make booking a holiday stress free and exciting. Thank you! Scott Richards2022-12-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked an autumn break through The Little Voyager and couldn’t be happier that we did! Ilonka was a pleasure to deal with and made choosing and booking so easy. It was really helpful to be able to speak to her about the details knowing that she had actually visited the hotel. We stayed at The South Tyrolean Art Nouveau Hotel and it was exactly what we were looking for. Gorgeous spaces for kids and grown ups, a cosy mountain feel and lots of activities for us all. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and made our stay as relaxing as possible. It has a perfect position set high in the mountains but also minutes to the city via a cable car. We would love to visit again and will also be using The Little Voyager for any future trips too! We can’t rate them highly enough! Thank you Ilonka and team! Adam Turner2022-09-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We contacted The Little Voyager in spring time because we were finding it really tricky to find a summer holiday. Whilst there were plenty of options out there, it felt difficult to decide on one, especially once you delve into the associated reviews. Ilonka contacted us really promptly and once she knew what we were after, started sending us different options based on our budget and where we wanted to be. We decided on a hotel and Ilonka booked it all for us from there, so it was super stress free and easy. Ilkonka was actually at our hotel when we were there and it was great to meet her and put a face to the company. She's a really lovely person who genuinely cares about the experience you have. Ilonka worked with our hotel to make sure we had a really spacious room facing the sea and it was absolutely fantastic. We loved our holiday, it was absolutely spot on and we wouldn't hesitate booking with Ilonka again next year. Helen Earl2022-09-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 100% recommend both the little Voyager and our stay in the Austrian Mountain resort. It was possibly the best holiday we've been on with something to do for everyone, whether it's spending all day in the various pools, going for walks in the mountains, mountain biking through the trees or playing in kids club. And to top it off, getting excellent Austrian food delivered straight to our chalet door for both breakfast and dinner was the icing on the cake. We will likely be coming back. :) Margarita Palacios Travieso2022-08-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing summer holiday at the “south tyrolean nature resort” the team of little voyager was incredibly helpful and kind when guiding us to book this wonderful vacation. An unbelievable place that will forever live in our memories. Thank you Little Voyager for making an unforgettable experience to our family. Chris Stone2022-08-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having stayed at a previous Little Voyager property in Portugal I felt very confident in booking Cretan Eco Resort. And it did not disappoint. Ilonka is incredibly helpful, always gets back to you with availability and answers to questions very promptly. If you want a high-end holiday for adults which also ticks all the boxes for kids (often a difficult balance to strike), I strongly suggest using Little Voyager Megan Walker2022-08-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have enjoyed 3 amazing holidays - in France, Spain and Italy over the past few years, organised by The Little Voyager. The properties are amazing and the service is very personalised. I cannot recommend The Little Voyager more highly. Keep up the amazing work, Ilonka and the team. I am looking forward to our next holiday. Simon Goodbody2022-07-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just come back from a week at The Halkidiki Beachfront Retreat and couldn’t have had a more perfect, stress-free holiday - thank you so much for helping us organise it! We absolutely loved the hotel; it was perfect for our 4 and 2 year old. They both loved the beach - we were there everyday. The shallow, calm water meant they could play on their own in the sea while we were able to watch from the sun beds! The food at the hotel was excellent; a really great breakfast spread everyday and a good choice for lunch and dinner - they also had a good kids menu. We also found a few lovely restaurants nearby for when we wanted a change of scene. The staff were also great and so patient and kind with the children. Would highly recommend The Halkidiki Beachfront Hotel, we are already planning when we can go back! Michelle Jensen2022-07-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve just returned from a wonderful (kid free!) trip to IKOS Andalusia, thanks to Little Voyager’s recommendations and help with planning all details, we had a truly wonderful time. We’ve now worked with Little Voyager to plan both family and adult getaways and I couldn’t recommend their services more! Agnieszka Kubow2022-06-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Booking holidays has become my favourite thing to do! The whole process is made so much easier and fun with Ilonka and her team! It’s been another year they planned our holidays and again it was so good! IKOS Olivia is a fantastic place, true to the “IKOS promise”. The resort is lovely and has all of the amenities you may think of. I especially love the restaurant selection, as it’s amazing to dine in fancy a la carte places every day! The staff in IKOS is again great, the attention they give you and the smile they greet you with everyday brightens your days, and stays with you once you finished your holidays. I can’t wait to plan my next holidays with Little Voyager and I must say the IKOS range is again quite high on the hit list!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
