I don't really like to use the word recession, but I think that it would be unrealistic to ignore that we are certainly facing difficult times financially.
Every news bulletin, every newspaper seems to have nothing to report other than doom and gloom: The closing of another factory, a bank going under, and so forth.
It's difficult to know what to do in such circumsances; Do you hope that the government will shore you up? Ideal if you happen to be in the car industry, but of no use whatsoever to the tourist industry. Those set to suffer most here in France are the hotel barges, and a number are currrently up for sale. Of course, this gives additional business to the remaining barges but waiting for business to come ones way is hardly very active!
Now for the good news!
Tom and Sue Hollows are not so complacent as to wait and see! Owners of a half board charter barge, the Easyvie, they offer cruises for up to 6 people aboard their beautiful boat, which is also their home. Already at a very competitive price, I have just negociated a reduction in their prices: You can currently book a 7 day cruise for 6 from as little as 7000 euros! That's 3000 euros less than their normal rates.
Not only will you have a fantastic week exploring the Aquitaine, but you will not be worrying about the cost!!

I look forward to hearing from you.
