Welcome to a wonderfully relaxed and genuine cycling experience in the south of France. From the pink city of Toulouse to the azure Mediterranean, you follow in the footsteps of the famous French canal architect Paul Riquet. Along shaded bike paths lined with plane trees, you pedal through the rural Lauragais and the vineyards of Minervois. The ingeniously constructed and UNESCO-listed Canal du Midi guides you faithfully and is easy to follow.
There is much to enjoy along the way: river barges, oval locks, old villages, gastronomic surprises and beautiful towns such as Carcassonne. A hearty cassoulet stew satisfies after a day of cycling, and the trip comes to a lovely conclusion in charming Sète by the sea.

What our customers say
Fun different experience. Good restaurants. Good bikes. Very good bike bags. NOTE: your recommendation to bring your own mobile holder for the handlebars was wrong. The rain-protected lid on the front bag was better!

Cycle along the Canal du MidiThis was very, very easy cycling, which I had expected. Lovely that there's a pool too, that's appreciated after 70 km of cycling in bright sunshine.
