Trudy and Mike embark on a cycle tour tracing the route of the Canal du Midi from its source to the Mediterranean. We follow the UNESCO recognised canal through beautiful French countryside and towns and cities of the Occitanie region. The holiday package was supplied by Relax Bike Tours.
Relax supplied the bikes, booked the hotels, transferred or luggage every day, picked us up at the airport, and supplied a road book with the route and much more.

WOW! Very nice video! Thanks!
I paddled my kayak from Royan to Ventigmiglia, 18 days. Live in Bèziers now before that Séte before that Brixham, south Devon, UK.
I love the 1960s style of music you selected for your video. I just love the whole scenery.
We loved your video thank you to you both. We are thinking of doing the same route, could you answer me some questions as we already have our bikes here in France so we will not be booking a tour. What month did you do it? How many km's per day did you do? Do you remember the name of the company that transported your luggage? Thanking you Julie
Thanks very much for this fantastic video, guys! Are there any nasty parts you recommend skipping? I see many barges with bikes on board – would be great if I could pay to do this for a section.
I live an hour from Toulouse.
I’m going with a dear friend in a month from Toulouse to Sete. (End of Sept)
Lovely video.
