Burgundy has miles of historic barge canals and serene rivers. A century and a half ago they were busy waterways, but today you can cruise tranquilly on a chartered barge past quiet villages and peaceful countryside far from the tourist track. The full “Burgundy For You“ experience includes a relaxing cruise along the beautiful Canal du Centre aboard the lovely L’Etoile. Combine your cruise with a stay at Domaine Brunot for A Week of French Spirit, or spend a full week of cruising only aboard L’Etoile.

During cruising you can simply relax on board, stroll along pretty towpaths, assist with lock operations, or take a ship's bicycle and explore on your own. Your experienced hosts will be more than happy to point out sights along the way, suggest stops in charming villages, and take you on excursions in the ship's limousine to such sites as Beaune, the center of Burgundy's famous wine region. A barge cruise is the ideal way to see chateaux, vineyards, and villages as they were centuries ago.
