French Country Waterways changes routes on three luxury barges

In 2025, new and loyal guests of French Luxury Waterways will be met with a fresh take on France as three of the line’s four barges are being repositioned.

Princess will call on wineries and towns in Champagne, Nenuphar will visit the Upper Loire, and Horizon II visits Alsace-Lorraine, while Adrienne remains in Burgundy. A 2025 digital brochure is available at 2025 French Country Waterways Brochure.

French Country Waterways’ luxury barges accommodate eight to 12 guests, making for a highly personalized experience and lasting friendships with fellow guests and crew.

The six-night sailings in each region are offered from late-March through October.

Sailing with French Country Waterways is fully inclusive, with private tours and wine tastings; exceptional cuisine from the on-board chef and dinner ashore at a Michelin-starred restaurant; a fully stocked open bar and all wines, many of which are from Grand and Premier Cru vineyards; dozens of tantalizing French cheeses; a private motorcoach, and more.

Fares begin at $8,195 per person, double occupancy.
