Our first experience with a group of five friends sailing on the Midi for four days was very enjoyable: we sailed, we went for walks, we visited places and, above all, we had a wonderful holiday thanks to the magnificent landscapes we passed through and the team at the Agde base who gave us very professional advice before we set off, ensuring we had a smooth crossing. The Tarpon 42 boat, Moby Dick, is very comfortable and has everything you need for a very pleasant stay.

2 great weeks' charter. We chose a simple boat but it suited us perfectly. Easy to handle and comfortable. The team at the base is very friendly and efficient. The Petite Saône is a wonderful river, with beautiful scenery, friendly little villages and not too many difficult locks.

Very good welcome, friendly and serious team. Very happy with our stay.

very friendly and courteous staff, great boats and - because we were travelling at the beginning of the season - very affordable prices! The Saone is also a really idyllic river for houseboat holidays: natural course, wild banks and basically idyllic scenery.

A wonderful experience!!! Very pleasant stay, calm and rejuvenating.

Top team, extremely responsive and friendly! We'll be back

Un grand bravo à Cédric, Ahmed et Jean Claude pour leur sympathie et leur efficacité !

Nous avons été ravis de notre croisière sur le Canal Rhône - Sète le personnel Canalous a été très accueillant très professionnel....Le bateau nous a plu ....Il manque un peu de vaisselle tel qu'une cocote et un grand faitout .... nous recommandons les Canalous aux personnes qui veulent découvrir la Camargue ses étendues d'eaux sa faune, les oiseaux chevaux toros sont magnifiques dans leur éléments qui sont les rizières, les marais Nous avons rencontré des personnes faisant parti de VNF ils ont été très charmant.

Le personnel aux écluses est super. Excellent accueil, bon conseil et super informations. Merci

Coisière très réussie. Tarpon 37 très agréable à vivre et a piloter. Merci à Jonathan et toute son équipe. Restaurant "Chez Michèle" à Languimberg délicieux. Parcours vers Saverne très sympa, jolis paysages, calme et nature, agréable mouillage à Lutzelbourg.

We spent a 3-day weekend on 2 boats with our children and 7 grandchildren and it was a great time of happiness, discovery and relaxation. It was great, everyone (young and old) loved it so much that they all want to do it again. Well done, Canalous!

Nous avons eu un incident technique avec notre 1er bateau mais l'équipe a été réactive et efficace sans compter le geste commercial. Tout s'est passé dans la bonne humeur et nous avons gardé un très bon souvenir de notre séjour ainsi que de toute l'équipe.

6 jours de rêve à bord d'un Tarpon 42TP sur le canal latéral à la Loire. Nous avons dormis dans des endroits sauvage et magnifique, réveil tous les matins au chants des oiseaux dans de nouveaux jardins tous les jours différents... Nous espérons réitérer cette aventure un jour.

Mention particulière à la personne qui nettoie l'intérieur. Merci, propreté irréprochable

Excellent parcours de Colombiers à Homps avec petit "crochet" par les écluses de Fonseranes et le pont-canal sur l'Orb . La variété du parcours (paysages , restos , éclusiers ...) nous a fait oublier une météo plutôt défavorable !

A good impression for a first cruise.

Notre navigation à été modifiée en dernière minute suite aux problèmes météo, nous avons apprécié notre nouvelle destination, briare au lieu du canal du nivernais avec un bateau surclassé.. merci à vous et à dimitry de nous avoir permis de naviguer sans supplément .. dimitry est très professionnel et s est montré disponible pour toutes la préparation à la navigation, c était notre 5eme navigation avec votre compagnie avec un bateau largement supérieur aux précédentes locations .. merci encore

Tout s'est bien passé, le temps était beau mais un peu frais. La charente était haute avec un fort débit mais navigable, pas toujours facile sur certaines écluses avec des courants en aval plutôt trompeurs.

Well done to Jean-Pierre and his team for the clear information and instruction on the manoeuvres. The atmosphere was friendly but very professional. We'll be sure to tell our friends and family about it!

Our stay on the barge was brightened up by daily visits from swans that we'd never had the chance to look into each other's eyes before... Another wonderful time shared between us, which could well lead to another river trip next spring!

Thanks again for this stay, we'll be back.

Stay on the Martin Pécheur Triton 860 fly departing from Digoin and returning to Nevers on the Canal Latéral à la Loire. Romantic landscapes, inspiring meditation.

We treated ourselves to this boat trip for our girls' 10th birthday weekend. We were able to give up music completely because the peace and quiet on the canals was so great! There was no need for anything. 4 great days, quite simply. Thank you for this experience too!

A relaxing 5-day break on the Canal du Midi from Homps to Colombiers and back aboard the Triton 1050 "Sumatra". Calm, a change of scenery, a change of pace, birdsong, discovery stops - a beneficial break!

We had a wonderful stay on the Caligula boat (very comfortable!) from Digoin. Sailing all the way to Dompierre-sur-Besbre, we were amazed by the scenery, fascinated by the locks and touched by the kindness of the locals. We were lucky enough to be accompanied on part of our journey by several animals, including a beautiful heron. Thanks to the stops along the way, we discovered some typical villages. Last but not least, our little captain even had fun on the playgrounds we found along the way! We look forward to sailing with Les Canalous again.

Magnificent cruise, magical moments!

Mini cruise very enjoyable to repeat!

Nice physical cruise on the Charente Well maintained boat and mechanical and comfort equipment in good condition For this third year in May on the Charente there was water and we were able to go as far as Angoulême but the wind was cold and unpleasant, you can't have everything?

The whole PARENT family was delighted with this experience, and sailing on the canals was a great first which delighted young and old alike. The region is magnificent, the people are generally very kind and all the Canalous staff are SUPER, attentive and very caring. Many thanks to the whole team

I really appreciated the kindness, the professionalism and the human side of the person in charge of the Pontailler base. I have been using the canalous for several times for barge trips and I am fully satisfied and ready to go back and advertise with you.

We were able to spend a wonderful mini-week in Alsace on "our" Marion. A special part of this was the sympathetic and professional-competent care by the team of Les Canalous. Certainly, the Marion is a boat that has already a lot on the hump, but for our demands on a sea voyage completely sufficient. Many thanks and greetings to the team of Les Canalous in the base Port du Houillon.

I really enjoyed the week's stay, but the training time on the handling of the barge seems fair. This one was very comfortable, something to improve: The maintenance of the bikes. But it is in progress. I also need telescopic handles for the moorings. Otherwise, whether at the commercial headquarters or the team at the base in Carcassonne, employees at the top THANKS to you do not change anything !

[…] We loved Paquerette, in spite of her poor old engine, she was a great home for our holiday! Our choice in coming on holiday with Les Canalous for around the 5th time was absolutely the right one!!

Do it again!

Very good stay, pleasant, magnificent course, for a first time I do not regret and recommend this adventure to people who seek peace and quiet, the beauty of the landscape and silence.

We will recommend you to others! :)

We opted for a simply boat for a first experience for two, and it was already very good. We'll be back with several of you on a higher-category boat.

Pleasant, competent and available staff. Nice cruise, we recommend the canalous

We had an unforgettable cruise in the Chablis, the teams are top notch, the lock keepers too, everything was great! One small improvement: put a window that opens in the toilets. Thanks again for everything, we hope to be back soon!

Hello, I'll be cruising with CANALOUS again. Sincerely

Good welcome, friendly and attentive staff, we'll be back in September. Thank you for everything

Perfect as usual. Long live the Canalous.
