I'm very keen to hear what you think of this one!

Who could resist an offer to try canal boating in the South of France in May? Certainly not me, so with a friend along to help out at the locks, we jetted down to Beziers and stepped aboard Mystique 1, for a journey up to Trebes over the course of a week. On the way we stopped at the most gorgeous cities, towns and villages for some sight-seeing as well as enjoying the spectacular scenery of the Canal du Midi.

This trip was very kindly laid on as a press event by Le Boat Visit https://www.leboat.com
