We thoroughly enjoyed our walk through the Carcassonne Castle and Ramparts, which was made much more meaningful by having the audio. Our tickets did not come up as valid when scanned at the castle entrance, but we were allowed in because we had a paper copy that clearly showed we had paid. We booked through Tripadvisor. It is not clear if the tickets were provided by Tripadvisor or TouringBee.
