Linking Toulouse to the Mediterranean, the Canal du Midi, built between 1667 and 1682, is considered to be the greatest construction project of the 17th century. Your journey, organized in loops around four stopover towns, will enable you to appreciate the ingenuity of the canal and to explore it at your own pace. In Carcassonne, we suggest you visit the medieval Cité, whose fortifications stretch for almost 3 km and house the château comtal and the basilica of Saint-Nazaire.
Looking for something different? Narbonne invites you to an underground labyrinth of ancient warehouses (horreum), inherited from Roman times. In Béziers, situated on a majestic promontory, you can contemplate the masterpiece of the canal, the nine locks of Fonseranes. Then on to Sète, bordered by the Etang de Thau and nicknamed the Little Venice of Languedoc, where the Mediterranean and its sandy beaches await you. What a delight to cruise along!
4 STAGE TOWNS: this way of traveling lets you put your suitcase down and take it easy. Your itinerary is designed in loops around four stopover towns, limiting the number of trips you make and leaving you free to discover and appreciate the places you visit. Make the most of it!
