Inland waterway cruise specialists Outdoor Travel, has introduced for the 2017 season a NEW Culinary-themed charter cruise aboard the elegant hotel barge Enchanté, cruising through the Southwest of France.
While meandering along the Canal du Midi, guests will be treated to an array of culinary delights during the week-long itinerary.
Ideal as a private charter, this specially-tailored cruise is perfect for a group of friends or family to indulge in the region’s wonderful products and to meet the artisans behind them. Enchanté is a state-of-the-art, two-level hotel barge that provides luxurious accommodation with en-suite bathrooms for up to 8 guests.
Embark in Narbonne with a champagne welcome, guests can look forward to appreciating some unique food experiences of the region - hunting for truffles in the Minervois hills and tasting the elusive white truffle; visiting a farm breeding the special Petit Gris variety of escargot; and touring L’Oulibo, a long-established olive oil press that produces the purist extra virgin olive oil from the famous Lucques olive.
Those who enjoy cooking can partake in a ‘hands-on’ French cooking class alongside the Canal du Midi and enjoy demonstrations throughout the cruise from the onboard chef. There is also the opportunity to visit the extraordinary indoor market in Narbonne, to choose the ingredients for dinner.
The itinerary provides a wonderful opportunity for just relaxing in the sunshine. Guests can make use of the spacious sun deck, with alfresco dining area and gorgeous spa pool, or choose to walk, or cycle along the towpaths.
The 6-night Culinary Cruise aboard Enchanté offers an attentive 5-person crew, all gourmet meals, fine wines, an open bar, daily escorted excursions and local transfers. It is available for charter bookings priced from $6075 per person (was $7390) sharing a twin or double cabin including a special 10% discount for 19th & 26th March and 2nd April 2017 departures.
