Why not combine a barge trip of a lifetime with some of these major events happening in France in 2024?

In a change for 2023 we visit the Boizel Champagne house in Epernay as part of our Champagne barge cruise on board the C’est La Vie.

The crew of the C’est La Vie, would like to wish all our passengers from 2022 and those who will join us in 2023 a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

A visit to Belleau Wood & Château-Thierry

The most poignant stops on our barge cruises in France are the visits to the WW1 battlefield and memorial plus the Château-Thierry American monument.

Faïencerie de Gien, the town and the pottery

On our Upper Loire barge cruise we visit the famous tableware factory of the ‘Faïencerie de Gien’ as well as stroll the market town who plays host to it.
