Canal boating along the Canal du Midi
France, Europe

No prior boating experience necessary, just bring your sense of adventure! A great way to share quality family (an extended family) time as you slowly meander (between 8-10 miles an hour) along the canals, navigating locks, stopping to explore quaint villages, castles and châteaux - you might even find a Michelin star restaurant a short stroll from dock! Toulouse is often referred to as ‘Paris in miniature,’ a maze-like city and a great place to start your canal boating adventure. Overflowing with art galleries and excellent food, make sure you shop for a picnic of local produce at Marche Victor Hugo or grab a cassoulet lunch in an eatery above the covered market before you set off. The 9 locks of Fonseranes (also known as the Octuple) in Beziers is a Canal du Midi must do and a great way to end your canal boating journey!

Having been in the travel industry for 14 years, it's safe to say travel
is my biggest passion. I love turning up somewhere not knowing what to expect
and being delighted by both the differences in culture, cuisine and customs.
Part way through my career I took a year off and spent this travelling
extensively through central America, Asia and Europe. I'm now fortunate enough
to be able to pass on the knowledge I've gained over the years and work with my
clients to bring their travel dreams to fruition.
