There’s no better way to understand the heart of southern France than to cycle through it and feel the beat!

This self-guided cycling tour begins in the cultural capital of Bordeaux and ends in the inviting metropolis of Toulouse, but that’s only part of the story. Between them, you’ll follow the spectacular Canal de Garonne, a lengthy 19th century waterway and designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, through quaint villages, blossoming countryside, and rows upon rows of highly cultivated vines. It’s a journey through both the traditionally rural and the fiercely industrial aspects of this fascinating French region.

Our seven-day itinerary is mostly flat as it skirts a level waterway, making it perfect for first-timers, leisure cyclists, and families with children. We have carefully selected some wonderful places to stay along the way and will transport your bags between each one, but otherwise we’ll stay out of your way. Once you’ve picked up your bikes, maps, and information packs, you are free to enjoy this stunning route at your own pace.
