Company description  

General description  :   Toulouse, the capital of the Midi-Pyrénées region, and France's 4th city, is in an ideal location.Between Carcassonne, Lourdes and Albi, its surroundings offer great getaways.By road you're just 2 hours from the Atlantic, 1 ½ from the Mediterranean and the ski resorts of the Pyrenees, 3 ½ from Barcelona, and by plane 1 hour from Paris or London.And no visitor will want to miss the Canal du Midi, a listed World Heritage Site, and the River Garonne, flowing through the city.

Toulouse invites you to discover its many facets.

Enjoy the view of the majestic Capitol as you relax at a sunny pavement café. Follow in the steps of the pilgrims in the Basilica of Saint-Sernin or the Cloister of the Jacobins church. Stroll through the old quarters and museums of the Ville Rose, which has so much to offer to historians and art-lovers. Then take a boat trip on the Garonne or a cruise on the Canal du Midi. And finally, experience the adventure of space at the Cité de l'Espace, and find out about aeronautics at the Airbus assembly lines.

The art of living in Toulouse is a gentle mixture of greenery (more than 1000 hectares of green areas), strolling and shopping in the streets of the historic centre, lazing on the shady terraces of cafés and restaurants, cultural entertainments all year round (festivals, concerts, operas, shows,  plays) and, of course treating your taste buds to its inimitable gastronomy foie gras, magret de canard, cassoulet, wines from Gaillac or Frontonnais, violet sweets and "Brique de Toulouse".

Relax and enjoy the charms of the Pink City, a city where living is good, a city where they sing and celebrate with the accent of the South West of France.

Live a weekend to the full in the Ville Rose, with the "Toulouse en Liberté" package (www.week-end-toulouse.com). Benefit from excellent rates in top hotels, and a Pass to explore the city at special rates, with free and discounted entry to the main sites and attractions of Toulouse!
