We had a great holiday with locaboat and noticed they were in much better condition than most other boats on the canal We did think we could have had a bit more time for our trip to explore and still get to the end of our cruise Loved the villages and Resteraunts along the canal
Ellis ★★★★

The boat was as expected and rates a 7/10:  Galley was well-equipped and the teak table on the bridge was large and easily accommodated 8-10 people.
The Canal du Midi was as expected: Tree-lined and quiet
Found Hotels Afloat through a web search: Rating 9/10 for attention to details and site content.
May book again

Barbara Beck; Midi Canal, June 2017

The 1500FB actually exceeded expectation for newness and outfitting of kitchen etc

Comfortable, roomy common area inside boat and on top deck.
Good hot water supply for showers. Good sized fridge.

I rate the boat a 10- highly recommend.

Cruise route: St Leger sur Dheune - Loisy
Many lovely towns to stop at- was able to visit several markets. No stretches without a place to visit. Many wine producers in the first half (St Leger to Chalon)

Very impressed with the Locaboat staff who set us up at St Leger, and the response to a mechanical issue which was promptly repaired at Tournus. It was good to have you (Emma) as an additional contact and you were also very responsive to our questions and helpful in selecting our route.

I would advise other travelers on this route that actually almost all wine makers were shuttered for both Sunday and the Bastille Day Monday holiday, so if visiting those is a priority that wouldn’t be the ideal week.

Chris Berkley. Southern Burgundy

The boat provided plenty of room for our group. I rate it 8/10.
We appreciated the quiet countrside cruising with interesting towns along the way.

Jack Durner. Loire Canal

I rate the boat an 8/10.
The route is beautiful, peaceful.
I was offered options, of route and boats, with enough info to be confident of a great trip. emmas responses to emails were timely, and accurate.
Totally met our needs.

Charles Field. Canal du Midi

It was our first time cruising a canal, two couples, five children and I have to say we loved it. It was a wonderful experience The staff from Locaboat was amazing,
