Choose a French canal holiday this year!
After spending a few years hiring boats in Britain I decided to hire a boat on the French canals. My wife had spent sometime in France before I met her, so she was keen to return. She could speak French quite well so I was not too aprehensive. Boating holidays in France are a perfect way to explore the quieter, less populated parts. It is really relaxing as you meander leisurely through the countryside on your canal boat.
There are lots of places to choose from on your French canal trips. For example, the River Lot offers dramatic limestone gorges to view as you pass by. The River Charente offers relaxing scenery and is a wonderful introduction to boating in France.
While in France you must sample their tremendous food. Each region has its own specialities and these are within easy reach of your canal boat each day and evening. Sightseeing not only as you pass along the canals and rivers is wonderful but also away from the water. Why not moor up and go exploring? Ancient castles, medievil villages, churches, and abbeys all offer history for you to learn about as you wander around.
Boating holidays in Brittany, Lot, Burgundy, Vosges, Aquitaine and Alsace Lorraine are all wonderful places to spend you time exploring on board boats with your family or friends.
