Our Cruise Route
The waterway on which we operate is beautiful and dramatic, rated by experienced barge travellers amongst the finest cruise routes in Europe.
Embracing both river and man-made canal, the Nivernais preserves the character of 150 years ago.
We cruise through lands where Charolais cows graze by the water's edge. Stone-built villages stand invitingly, with their painted shutters and doorways framed in roses. Centuries-old locks mark the way, a contact with a life-style where hustle knows no place.
Each day in our accompanying bus we make excursions into a historic and culturally rich region - to chateaux, market towns and vineyards. And our expert on-board guide knows this region well.
Described as 'the most beautiful and varied water route of them all', the Nivernais offers the attractions of an up-country waterway, a delight throughout its course.

A vision of culture and good living, the ancient Dukedom of Burgundy retains a special identity. Running
southwards from the magnificent city of Auxerre, the Nivernais cruise route exemplifies the finest qualities of
the region.
