Linking Toulouse to the Mediterranean, the Canal du Midi is characterized by the extraordinary luminosity that inspired Van Gogh. Rich in history thanks to cities such as Carcassonne and its medieval city, or Narbonne, the first Roman colony outside of Italy, it offers a generous table where cassoulets and sausages take the center-stage.
And to help you fully appreciate this charming program, your itinerary is structured around three stopover towns, from which you can loop back and forth at your own pace. Sail the Canal routes at your own pace, taking in the beautiful scenery and stopping at every historic bend in the road.
With the Self-guided formula, enjoy your stay according to your desires, in total independence. We give you the itinerary, we book your accommodation and the rest is up to you!
