Navigate the iconic Canal du Midi
Summer is the perfect time to slow down, soak up the sun and explore in total freedom. Aboard a Pénichette®, the Canal du Midi reveals its treasures: picturesque villages, golden vineyards and glimpses of unspoilt nature.
Imagine yourself, surrounded by your loved ones, cruising along, enjoying every moment. Together, we’ll go through the locks, learn how to manoeuvre, and the little ones will discover nature in complete freedom, between the playful responsibility of manoeuvres and stopovers full of discoveries.
An early present from Locaboat: 30% off your summer cruise on the Canal du Midi. You don’t need a licence, just a desire to explore.
