Springtime Barging Vacation Cruises on Canal du Midi, France

Spring is the perfect time to enjoy a hotel barge cruise on the Canal du Midi in Southern France for many reasons:
  • The weather is mild and sunny
  • The colors of Spring are enchanting
  • The pace of life on the canal is quiet and relaxing, and 
  • Exploring the towpath and local villages on foot or bicycle is a true delight
  • Alfresco lunches and lounging in the on-deck spa pool are a real plus
  • Excursions to historic places like Carcassonne and Narbonne

Take a trip through gorgeous countryside and medieval cities of southern France.


The 300-year old Canal du Midi skirts the sun-drenched shores of the Mediterranean before meandering inland through ancient villages, Roman fortifications and famed vineyards. This canal is defined by its beauty, lined with plane trees and crossed by pretty arched bridges. The Mediterranean weather and pace of life is relaxed and lulls you into unwinding as you cruise sedately along.

This is the perfect place for cycling or walking along scenic tow paths, or simply watching the scenery pass by as you relax on deck with a cool drink. In the distance you can see the Pyrenees, whereas closer to hand are the vineyards that stretch for thousands of square miles. Enjoy private wine tastings at chateaux en route, locations that vary with your choice of barge.
