 Hotel Barge the Impressionniste

Cruising Provence

THE 12 PASSENGER L'IMPRESSIONNISTE .... began life as a cargo barge in Holland before undergoing a complete transformation into the powerful canal and river cruiser she is today. 

Her light and airy interior features picture windows and a selection of prints, fabrics and wall colorings reminiscent of the turn of the century era after which she has been named. She is crewed by a knowledgeable Captain, Master Chef and crew of three. 

L'Impressionniste's classic route covers some fine Burgundian rural cruising with plenty of opportunity to cycle and stroll along the tow-path and wander into nearby villages.
