Full details of possible excursions (on foot, by bicycles or by car) are contained in an
information pack on the barge and don’t need to be booked in advance. The on-board
information includes a restaurant list with phone numbers and prices.
For each cruise stop, we will recommend you the most suitable visit and/or activity which
will show you the wonders of the Côte Chalonnaise and the Côte de Beaune
For particular or date sensitive activities, the suggestions list will be reviewed prior to guest arrival in order to book in advance, as far as possible, the cruise program.

Hand soap, shower gel, shampoo, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, washing detergent,
toilet tissue and cleaning material.
Fresh flowers, fruit bowl, fresh bread, tea, coffee milk, sugar, butter, and jam
Bottled water and soft.

LOGISTIC SUPPORT;

If you would like to go to the supermarket (on your arrival day or at any time) to stock up on provisions, we will happily take you there. You will have as well the full details about village markets and food shops along the route on your cruise.

CRUISE DETAILS;

Arrival Sunday at around 16:00, departure after breakfast the following Saturday at around 10:00. (Nb: The nearest train stations: Le Creusot / Chalon-sur-Saône / Dijon)
The cruise starts from Saint Julien-sur-Dheune to Seurre with various stops and vice versa. The navigation takes place on the Canal du Centre from Saint Julien-sur-Dheune to Chalon-sur-Saône and then on the Saône river to Seurre.
To take advantage of the full day, the breakfast will be taken between 08:00 and 09:00, the navigations mainly take place at the morning in order to start at the opening time of the locks (09:00).
The barge mooring (for each stop) are booked in advance at the beginning of the season, so it means that the cruise is scheduled and, as far as possible, needs to be respected. The table below gives, on an indicative basis for each day, the different stops with the navigation time
associated.
In many cases, interesting sites are located within a 10 to 30 minutes’ drive.

Alexandre

I discovered Burgundy 30 years ago when I met my wife originating from Mercurey, famous vineyard of the « Côte Chalonnaise », and my passion for the wine started from that time. Since years this wine interest never stopped and it would be a pure pleasure to share this passion with you.
