With the increase of budget airlines, flying and then hiring a car can be a more convenient way to travel. There are direct flights from several UK airports to Bergerac with Ryanair (www.ryanair.com), Flybe (www.flybe.com) and Jet2 (www.jet2.com); to Brive-la-Gaillarde, near Souillac, with Ryanair and Cityjet (www.cityjet.com); and to Bordeaux with British Airways (www.britishairways.com) and Easyjet (www.easyjet.co.uk). From Bordeaux it is relatively easy to get a train to Bergerac or Sarlat.
