4.5 (723 reviews) Spent Ranking #12 in Haute-Garonne Bodies of Water
The backbone of the city
The Garonne river in Toulouse offers nice walks along the banks with amazing views on brick-made historical buildings both at night and during daytime. It’s also an opportunity to learn a lot about the history of the city that was organized around the river.

Boat trip on the Garonne
I love a boat trip to learn about the surrounding areas, so we took a trip which was just over the hour. The information on paper given out was interesting but the particular trip we took was disappointing. After going through a lock, we seemed to turn around almost instantly to go back through the lock again. Passing the boarding point, the boat travelled a little further then returned. I think most of out time aboard was in the lock! There are a number of trips apart from this so dont be put off. More choices of trips and times are available from July. In June, there were only a few to choose from.

Charming
When we were there, it was early evening and with the lights it was pretty and peaceful. A lovely walk along the river admiring the historical buildings either side of the banks heading towards the centre of Toulouse.
