The easiest way to get from Toulouse to Cahors by car is to take the A62 North (direction Agen or Bordeaux) and come off when you see a sign to Montauban:   this stretch of péage will cost you under 3 euros.   At the end of the Montauban bypass, you have the choice of the N20 (or D820) to Caussade & Cahors or another stretch of the A20 autoroute.   The A20 is faster and better by night, but the N20 is prettier and there is no toll.

give way Just South of Cahors (at a roundabout), you'll see a sign to Cahors (Centre Ville).   Past another roundabout and some traffic lights, and you'll come to a set of mini-roundabouts with a right turn posted Rodez:   it's just before the bridge over the Lot into central Cahors.   Take this right turn:   you will go over a level crossing and shortly come to a traffic light.   Turn left and, almost immediately, right on a narrow street before the railway bridge.   Keep going on rue Jacques Brel until you see number 414.   It's just after a sign (partly obscured by a tree) warning you of some railway tracks (voie ferrée).   Drive in the gate.

The D911 runs from the East to Cahors along the South side of the Lot.  Once inside the city boundary, look for traffic lights at the bottom of a hill. Turn right there and right again (before the railway bridge) onto rue Jacques Brel. There's another road from the East (Figeac) that runs along the North side of the Lot.  Keep close to the river as you enter Cahors and turn left at a mini-roundabout onto the Pont Cabessut. After another mini-roundabout look for a railway bridge: rue Jacques Brel is immediately East of this.

Those coming from the North or West should find their way to the centre of Cahors easily. If you were on the A20 autoroute, take the North Cahors exit and follow the N20 / D820 to Cahors.  Once in the city, a landmark is the roundabout with fountain at the bottom of boulevard Leon Gambetta (the North-South road that divides the old city from the new).  Having driven down Gambetta, turn left at the fountain. Follow the road round the inside of the boucle until you come to the Pont Cabessut. Turn right and follow the directions above.

If you arrive in Cahors by train, a taxi from the station should cost less than 10 euros (if you can find one).
