Barge cruising ( barging ) is the perfect way to spend a vacation. Well described as the connossieur's way of travel in this crowded age, former commercial barges adapted for barge cruising offer not only a unique view of the essential France but an opportunity to meet and make friends with the locals, not always easy on other types of conducted tour. Many will indeed be barge and hotelboat owners or lockkeepers themselves, ready to exchange a friendly greeting in a busy lock as we pass through. The barge MERGANSER, carrying a maximum of eight passengers, boasts excellent cuisine, first rate tours, and a knowledgeable and attentive crew. Cabins are all en-suite, and provide good accommodation for all types of travellers. Single cabins are available at no extra cost and charter group rates for five or more passengers offer exclusive use of the barge at good discounts. In these pages you will find a selection of some of the best cruising routes in France, featuring visits to Paris, the Champagne and Burgundy regions, the Loire valley, the ancient capital of Reims, and much more.
On the following pages you will find a full description of the barge Merganser, the routes which the barge will be cruising during 2008 and full description of these routes. We shall be delighted to do everything in our power to personalise your holiday in respect of travel arrangements, dietary requirements and answer any queries you may have about Merganser, or the itineraries. Your comments will always be welcome as will any suggestions you may have for future itineraries.
