- Traditional boat: Ideal for those who wish to immerse themselves in maritime history, the traditional boat offers an authentic and warm experience.

Sail peacefully while admiring enchanting landscapes and stop off in picturesque villages to enrich your trip with local experiences, such as on a cruise in South Africa or a weekend on a river boat in the Loire region. River boats have a varying capacity of between 15 and 150 travelers. Here we have favored cruises on small river boats to encourage meeting people.
