Trip Planning

Our cruising area, the Languedoc, is one of the most interesting areas of Southern France. In recent years the U.S.travel press has dubbed it "the next Provence," as Languedoc offers all the elegance and poetry of that famous region but without the crowds. Our US office is expert in helping you plan a barge cruise, travel to Southern France and the area of Languedoc. Not only do we help you arrange your travel to and from the cruising area, we can suggest pre and post-cruise itineraries, advise you on French train travel or even help you arrange your stay in Paris.

We know you have a choice when you book your vacation. While we are an owner-operated set of small luxury hotel barge, we can also offer you some of the same services of a full-fledged travel agency. Moreover, we know France and our cruising area in detail and can direct you to some of the area's most interesting features. Indeed, we can usually even tell you the market day of a town you might be thinking of visiting! When you book a cruise through us, our trip-planning services include:

• Advice and/or reservations at hotels immediately before or after your cruise, including your stay in Paris.
• Consultation on French Train travel, booking your French travel before your departure from the US.
• Consultation on air travel to France (we cannot book your air for you directly but can advise you in detail and refer you to an agency).
• Coordination of your trip in France such as private driver referrals, restaurant information, hotels, sightseeing recommendations.

When you book a cruise through our U.S. office, not only can you rely on our trip-planning services but you have better access to our operations in France to tailor your cruise. We can give you immediate answers on your special requests and work closely with our Captain and crew to make your barge cruise exactly how you imagine it. Call us at 866-550-3447 on our services or contact us via our website. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
