  What else ...

  Ideally you will have your own transport as there is a huge amount of sightseeing locally - Toulouse, Albi, Cahors - too much to see especially for those interested in history. Our river has canoeing, there is horse riding locally and fantastic walks etc. Having your own transport is not eseential though.
