CRUISE ROUTE: The Nivernais, from Auxerre to Clamecy (Burgundy, France). Click image to enlarge.

The waterway on which Luciole operates is beautiful and dramatic, rated by experienced barge travellers amongst the finest cruise routes in Europe.

Embracing both river and man-made canal, the Nivernais preserves the character of 150 years ago.

Cruise through lands where Charolais cows graze by the water's edge, and stone-built villages stand invitingly, with their painted shutters and doorways framed in roses, while centuries-old locks mark the way. Escape the hustle and bustle and relax, taking in the scenery and culture of this historic region.

Each day in the Luciole's accompanying bus will make excursions into a historic and culturally rich region: to chateaux, market towns and vineyards. Their expert on-board guide knows this region well.

Described as "The most beautiful and varied water route of them all", the Nivernais offers the attractions of an up-country waterway, a delight throughout its course.
