Useful tips for your holiday in Toulouse
The best time to rent a campervan in Toulouse is between May and October. These are the months when the weather is the warmest and the days are the longest. April and May (spring) and September to October (Autumn) are better for campervans. The roads will be less busy, and the prices will be cheaper, but it should still be warm.
HikingYou could hire a campervan in Toulouse and then head to the Pyrenees to do some hiking, which are about three hours away. These are located on the border between France and Spain.
Beach holidaysToulouse itself doesn’t have any beaches as it's pretty far inland. However, within an hour and a half drive is Narbonne, which is on the Mediterranean Sea and is perfect for exploring beaches along the coast with some beautiful beaches.
VineyardsThe French love their wine, and there is plenty of it here in Toulouse. You can arrange a wine tour with one of the local vineyards and taste the wine directly from the source. Just make sure you check ahead to see if they are open.
