The Toscane Occitane area is situated between Bordeaux, Montauban and Albi and is roughly the North West sector of the Tarn department. Getting here is easy – you just have to follow the River Tarn. But if you don’t have a ‘Gabare’ barge available, there are some more up to date forms of transport that will get you here quicker, so you can dive into an area that’s rich in beautiful countryside and fascinating culture, with an extremely warm welcome.
