Only small groups allowed so that each person can clearly make out the animals engraved 15000 years ago. Fascinating and not to be missed.

Only a small group of people participate in this tour for the reason that illumination of the drawings/engravings is by lantern and they are difficult to see, except close up. This cave is a much more intimate experience than at the Font de Gaume cave and my tour was led by an enthusiastic man in French. The drawings/engravings are all monochrome. All the paintings have disappeared over time. The Cro Magnon artists must have crawled into the cave.

An exciting visit, with a guide who just loves what she does, and it shows!... A small, dark, and compact grotte, one gets the feeling of the intimacy of a private site of Cro Magnon expressions of beauty...so dark and deep, that the carvings are even more surprising when you see them from the dimly light lanterns.Certainly not as imposing as Font de Gaume, it is, nonetheless, a great companion visit.

Wonderful tour guide (didn't get his name) loves this cave and shares his love with those on his tour 100%. We lucked out that all the people on what was suppose to be a French language tour spoke English so the guide gave an English tour. Combining this tour with the Grotte de font-de-gaume and Abri de Cap Blanc (start with Grotte de font-de-gaume and let the ticket seller organize your tours of the other 2 for the day) gives a full representation of the cave/shelter experiences available in the area. It is still hard to visualize the people responsible for this art.

There was so much to see and as part of a small group much easier to ask questions, this was made even more interesting by the very good guide, he was passionate about his subject and his love of the caves came across very clearly and influenced us all.

Went here after Abri du Cap Blanc. Enjoyed both of them. Nice to see the drawings on the wall in the office to prepare you for the real thing, which is not always obvious to the viewer. Recommended!

A different form of prehistoric art - animal engravings - are found in this original cave. Good tour guide. Wear a jacket or sweater - the cave is cool and damp.

I knew I wanted to see Lascaux and Albi de Cap Blanc but unsure which other sites. The very helpful woman at the PIP suggested we got a combination ticket for this site, Font de Gaume and AdeCB. Recommended, you can buy it from Font de Gaume for 18 euros which I think is great value.Our tour was in English because the only other people on it were American, but usually it's in French. The guide was wonderful, providing lots of interesting information and pointing out the outlines of the engravings - originally painted but that's gone apart from a few small bits. I agree with other reviewers that there was something magical about suddenly realising I was looking at a beautifully carved buffalo, horse or reindeer. The engravings are all the more remarkable because the artists had to crawl through a narrow passage to create them.If you're wondering which sites to look at, I recommend this is one of the ones on your list.

Booked a 10am tour in advance to visit Les Comarelles, a cave which was inhabited by Cro-Magnon people approximately 13–11,000 years ago and contains more than 600 pre-historic engravings of animals and symbols. As we were the only guests, we had a 'private' tour with a gregarious male archeologist, mostly in French, which 'seemed' to be very detailed and scientific from what we could understand. We only saw a few of the 600 pieces of 'art' which were remarkable. You really need a guide for these visits - at first they just look like fissures and scratches on the walls but then when the forms are pointed out it's a little bit magical. And this was a real cave - really long and deep - quite exciting. Allow an hour.
