Nature Occitane is one of the few French owned walking holiday companies that offers self-guided and guided tours in English, and for that we LOVE them! This small local company based in southern France (near Montpelier) offers a small selection of multi-day hiking tours in the Cévennes region, as well as cycling tours along the Canal du Midi (from Toulouse to the Mediterranean Sea).
Review of Nature Occitane Website
Nature Occitane’s site is simple and well-designed, easy to navigate and provides all of the important details. While they don’t give exact lodging they do provide more details than most (plus a few photos).
