Four Simple Commitments
Flat rate to the hamlet of Galmier
The quote covers the 207 km to La Palombière, including tolls and luggage. The price remains the same on the A89 as well as on the approach to Sainte-Nathalène.
Van for a Capfun vacation
The Eco Van can accommodate 7 passengers and 7 suitcases, along with a stroller and bags for the water park. Baby seats and booster seats are available upon request (+€15).
Specified rural address
The transportation record states, “Camping La Palombière, Galmier, 24200 Sainte-Nathalène.” This detail prevents passengers from being dropped off at a generic location in downtown Sarlat.
The 2026 season is included
The campground, its restaurant, snack bar, and grocery store are scheduled to be open from April 3 to September 20, 2026. The transfer is scheduled for the actual dates of your stay.

How does your transfer to the La Palombière campground work?
Your transfer consists of four steps: pickup in Bordeaux, loading of luggage, a 2-hour, 26-minute drive, and drop-off at the campground reception desk in Sainte-Nathalène. The Sarlat-Périgord Noir Tourist Office provides practical information about the town and its surroundings.
Once the reservation has been confirmed for the Galmier area, the driver unloads the luggage in front of the reception desk. A return trip or an outbound trip can be booked separately: the half-day Eco package starts at 511 € and the trip to Sarlat starts at 524 €
Campground reservation confirmed
Before leaving the hotel, Saint-Jean Station, or the airport, the driver will confirm the name of the person making the reservation and the arrival time provided to La Palombière.
Take the A89, then the D704 toward Sarlat
From Bordeaux, take the A89 to Exit 17 (Thenon/La Bachellerie), then follow the D704 toward Sarlat. The final leg of the journey leads to Sainte-Nathalène and the hamlet of Galmier.
Drop-off at the Galmier area
The driver is asked to stop at the campground reception area, not in the village of Sainte-Nathalène. Luggage is unloaded before check-in.
A site near Eyrignac
The campground advertises the gardens of the Eyrignac manor as being 3 km away. Sarlat, Domme, and Beynac are the other main day trips to plan from La Palombière.
La Palombière does not have a train station: the station at Sarlat, about 6 km away, still requires a road trip. The transfer from Bordeaux therefore keeps the luggage in the same vehicle until it arrives at the Galmier area.
Day trips from the campground: Sarlat, Domme, Beynac
There is a stop in Sarlat, located about 10 minutes from the campground, before dropping off at a place called Galmier; Domme is about 20 minutes away, and Beynac is about 22 minutes away. Luggage remains in the trunk until you receive La Palombière.
About 6 km
About 15 km
About 16 kmTour package: one-way trip from Bordeaux to the campground + stopover + 3 hours of driver service on-site at the hourly rate. Prices in the Eco range; Sedan, Eco Van, and Mercedes Van at their respective range rates. For a trip departing from the campground during your stay, get an exact quote in 30 seconds via the module or via WhatsApp.
Book directly, in French or English
Why not a shuttle or a platform?
La Palombière is located outside the center of Sarlat, in a place called Galmier: therefore, taking the train does not eliminate the final leg of the trip by road. By contacting the driver directly, you can provide all the necessary information—including your flight or train schedule, the name of your Capfun reservation, and the amount of luggage—in a single message.
When should I make a reservation?
For a weekday transfer from Bordeaux to the La Palombière campground, booking 24 to 48 hours in advance is sufficient—confirmation within 30 minutes. Plan ahead even further for summer Saturdays (the typical arrival day at campsites), long weekends, and peak season (July–August). For families and groups traveling by van, allow 5 to 7 days. Drop-off on arrival + pickup at the end of your stay: both trips must be booked together, each at a fixed price.
Enter the locality of Galmier
The form must be addressed to the La Palombière campground in Sainte-Nathalène, including the dates of the stay and the number of passengers. The displayed rate then corresponds to the entire trip from Bordeaux.
Specify the aquatic load
The quote includes suitcases, a stroller, child seats, and additional bags. The vehicle is selected before confirmation to avoid running out of trunk space upon arrival.
Arrival at the front desk
After the A89 and the D704, the race ends at the campground reception desk in the hamlet of Galmier. The return trip to Bordeaux or a day trip is scheduled for a separate date.
Preparing for an arrival at La Palombière
The address used for navigation purposes is “lieu-dit Galmier, 24200 Sainte-Nathalène.” It must be included along with the name La Palombière in the transfer request.
The facility and its main departments have announced that it will be open from April 3 to September 20, 2026. The busiest period for events is between late June and late August.
The Eyrignac Gardens are listed as being 3 km away, and Sarlat remains the main town in the area. A trip there should be planned separately from the time needed to check in at the campground.
This information is intended as a guide for preparation based on data published by Capfun; it does not describe a customer experience. Specific instructions regarding accommodations must be confirmed with La Palombière.
