Belmond Afloat, River Cruises, France

Collection of 7 luxury barges operating on several river routes with 2 to 6 cabins

All 6 night itineraries and inclusions are tailored to each client. Some barges are for private hire only, some can be booked per cabin.
Prices available on request.

One of the most luxurious and relaxing ways to explore the rivers and canals of France, aboard a beautifully appointed barge cruising at a stately pace through some of Europe’s most picturesque regions. Belmond’s vessels operate from April to October on a variety of routes through Languedoc-Rousillon, Burgundy, Champagne, Provence, Franche-Comté and the Rhône. Sleeping from 4 to 12 guests, the seven ‘péniche-hôtels’ can be chartered by families or groups for sole use or booked on a cabin by cabin basis. Cruising in tandem is also possible for larger groups wishing to travel together.
