About Hotel Barge Savoir Vivre
The French Hotel Barge Savoir Vivre was purposely designed for barge charter cruises and to be more accessible for children and those who are less mobile as everything is mostly on one level. Savoir Vivre has a crew of three, and accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 identical cabins, each with ensuite bathroom facilities.
Savoir Vivre’s program is designed to be affordable and to appeal to travelers more interested in experiences than amenities.
A cruise along the Burgundy canal truly is a voyage of discovery encompassing culture, architecture, history and natural beauty. There is always something to do. This includes enjoying private vineyard tours, exploring ancient chateaux, browsing authentic markets and cycling along the towpaths. You may wish to walk into the local village to a café in the square, balloon over divinely beautiful countryside or play a round of golf on one of the several high quality courses nearby.
Experience “real” French dining experiences at a different authentic local restaurant every evening. You will be escorted to the restaurant and ensure you are settled. When you have finished your meal, a crew member will return to collect you. And, of course, Savoir Vivre covers the tab.
Guest Comments
“We loved our time aboard Savoir Vivre! Crew was lovely – Captain Richard was the nicest and best host we could imagine – very relaxed and welcoming and funny! Barge itself was top notch. Excursions were most enjoyable and our guide made things so interesting and engaging – loved them all!
“We prefer the option of having dinners in restaurants as it gets you out and about and you get to experience more architecture and food options – just great. On-board meals were excellent. Restaurant meals were excellent.
“One of the most enjoyable aspects of this trip was the ability to walk along the canal ahead of the barge. The countryside is very beautiful, and the people are kind and welcoming. We were very fortunate in our barge-mates, as they were all very interesting and sociable people, and we had lots of fun with them. We were very relaxed after our time on board.
“The only thing we should have done differently is to plan to visit Paris ahead of our barge trip, as it was hard to gear back up to bustling city energy!
“Your services were friendly and reliable, as always.”
