Rodez

Rodez is a French city located in the Pyrenees next to the Spanish border. Rodez was established by the Celts in the 5th Century BC, and later become a Roman town. Rodez was a major commercial center until the 19th Century, when its importance declined. Rodez is now an administrative center for the surrounding region. Rodez has a Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and cool dry winter due to its altitude.

Voice of Travelers to Rodez

Hiking and Camping Around Rodez

The area around Rodez represents some of the finest hiking and camping space in the Pyrenees. I booked tickets with Eastern Airways for the whole family to enjoy a week of camping and hiking in the Pyrenees around Rodez together. I had never flown with Eastern Airways before, and I was very impressed by their professionalism. We spent one night in Rodez before buying our camping tickets and heading off to the hiking trail. The week around Rodez with my family was a great experience and the kids asked me when we could buy more tickets to go back to Rodez and camp again.

Ancient Ruins in Rodez

I really needed a break from my career, so I booked two weeks off from work and bought a pair of tickets for my boyfriend and I to fly to Rodez. I bought the tickets from Ryanair, so they were a cheap flight to Rodez. Even though Ryanair is a discount airline, we receives excellent service for the ticket price. My boyfriend loves to look at all the ancient ruins, so we spent most of our time buying tour tickets to the many ancient sites in and around Rodez. I prefer to relax in a cafe or the hotel, so we spent some time doing that as well.

My Rodez Adventure

I was happy when my parents bought me a ticket for Rodez for my graduation. The ticket was with Ryanair, and they were very cool about guiding me through the whole process since it was obvious that I had never flown before. In Rodez I met some other kids at my hotel who invited me along to go hiking with them. We had a great time hiking around Rodez together. I also bought some tickets to go tour the ancient sites because I have always really loved history and Rodez has some of the oldest ruins in France that predate even the Romans.
