Barges by Country and Region: Upper Loire & Loire Valley

The picturesque Upper Loire features a landscape dotted with castles, riverside villages and stately manor houses. During your voyage, you'll cruise past Montargis, known as the "Venice of France" thanks to the canal that winds through the center of town, and the majestic splendor of the world's largest aqueduct that crosses the Loire River at Briare. You can also walk the ancient "Staircase of Seven Locks" at Rogny-les-Sept-Ecluses, completed in 1642.

As the only vessel cruising in Loire Valley, a voyage on Nymphea features exclusive barging access to the towns of Bléré and St Aignan, and the breathtaking Château de Chenonceau.
