SEVEN DAYS / SIX NIGHTS
The 13-passenger La Belle Epoque in Burgundy is the sister ship to L'Impressionniste in Provence. It has been designed with both elegance and passenger comfort in mind, and offers a sun-deck spa pool, chartroom, wood paneled saloon and dining room, together with other luxury facilities, all fully air-conditioned. There are two spacious suites and four junior suites, with twin or double beds, all with marble en-suite bathrooms, plus a single cabin with bathroom. The Captain leads a crew of six, comprising Master Chef, Tour guide, Housekeeper and two Stewardesses.

Absolutely super. Just wonderful. The crew was wonderful. Enjoyed gourmet cooking and kidding the chef. They took us on tours daily, and all were very, very good. Scenery was beautiful and had gorgeous weather. Cabins were very good.

High points: food, duck farm visit, St Eugenie. Excellent: food, excursions, service, route. I'll never be the same again. Chef was great!

We thoroughly enjoyed it. Very first class treatment by the staff, very well informed about the region, towns, history, wines, etc.; excellent cuisine; quite interesting cobargers, and quite good side trips.

Barge was well laid out and plenty of space. It made it easier that we had the whole barge for our party as we could really take over. Not having to lift a finger for a week was wonderful. The whole atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. The excursions had a good balance between history, current lifestyle, shopping and wine.
