Map 2 - the northern regions of Gaillac, Cahors, Marmandais and Frontonasis are best though of as a 3 day circular tour

Map 3 - the southern regions of Armagnac, Tursan, Madiran, and Jurancon would also make a good 3 day tour

Map 4 - the grand circle tour taking in all the wine regions and best considered as a 6 night/7 day tour with different accommodation each night
