Available across its fleet of luxury hotel barges, these limited-time offers allow travellers to experience the charm of Europe's canals and countryside at exceptional value on a slow travel sojourn.
Whether sailing through the chocolate-box villages of Burgundy, the rolling vineyards of the Canal du Midi, or the fairytale surrounds of Alsace, guests can expect an immersive, all-inclusive journey with fine cuisine, curated off-the-beaten path excursions, and a personalised home-from-home experience throughout.

About European Waterways
Established in 1974 European Waterways offers luxury hotel barging which is an immersive, all-inclusive “gentle voyage of discovery” that focuses on the culture, history, fine wine, and gourmet cuisine of the region. With a 6 to 20-person capacity and a 1:2 crew ratio, European Waterways can provide an impeccable level of onboard service, as they transport their guests on the intimate inland waterways that are often inaccessible to larger vessels. Exploring this network of smaller canals allows for spontaneity and the opportunity to explore the picturesque surroundings by bicycle or on foot. In addition, there are daily, chauffeured excursions “off the beaten track” to a wide variety of enthralling locations, from exquisite wine tastings to private tours of stately homes. European Waterways is the largest luxury hotel barging company in Europe and has a fleet that cruises nine countries.
