    This splendid hotel-barge provides an excellent standard of comfort and very spacious suites in an extremely French ambiance. The entire barge is air-conditioned and boasts 4 very large suites on the lower deck, all with large portholes and generously sized private en suite bathrooms and WC. The upper deck features an elegant dining room with one long dining table and a very comfortably furnished lounge with bar. There is ample room for 8 guests to relax in total comfort, whilst the carefully polished hardwoods give the Reine Pedauque an air of luxury whilst still retaining a very ‘boaty’ feel.
    The route is rural and you will meander gently from village to village. The lush green landscape and gentle villages on this route cannot fail to enchant you. With an international speaking crew to cater for your needs, you can lie back in a deckchair on the sundeck and watch the landscape glide by, cycle along the towpath or take an excursion inland – the ONLY way to enjoy Burgundy! Can also cruise in tandem with her 6 passenger ‘sister ship’ the MS Niagara—accommodating groups of us to 14 guests in grand style.
