Customer testimonials
4.6/5
(based on 49 opinion)
"There are a lot of locks to go through in the sector we've chosen."
"In 3 days, you don't navigate very far, but the main aim was to stroll along the canal, no matter how far we went."
"Very nice, but next time I'll take a route with fewer locks to cross (we passed 80 in total)."
"A very natural cruise, if you're looking for total relaxation, the Canal du Nivernais is perfect. However, next time we'll choose an itinerary with fewer locks, as navigation depends on their opening times."
"Very nice. But if we had to do it again, we'd choose a river with slightly fewer locks. We preferred the more rustic Canal du Nivernais section."
"Wonderful."
"An interesting and relaxing cruise."
"We are happy with our choice, beautiful nature and nice little towns to visit."
