On this 4 days road trip from Toulouse, you will visit and enjoy the really slow paced countryside of the area of Gers. It is the only department of France with no highway at all. It is the country of foie gras, duck magret and Armagnac, some delicious French specialties. You will also visit some nice typical architecture and Unesco heritage site, and some of the most beautiful villages of France. And you will also follow the footsteps of D'Artagnan, the most famous musketeer because that is where he was born.
