The Jubilant: A great way to see Burgundy at an unbelievable price!



The Jubilant is a beautiful barge which has been lovingly restored by it's current owners into a homely but high standard barge.


I visited the boat during the winter: Even in the depths of a Burgundy winter she was invitingly cozy.
The spacious saloon and dining area are ideal for relaxing, while the top decks allow a great view as you cruise along.

And at the end of the day, a comfortable cabin with private ensuite awaits you.




With David as your captain, sit back and enjoy a cruise that can include the Canal du Rhone au Rhin, beginning in Medieval Dole, the river Saone, and the Canal du Centre, home to the vineyards!
Privates charters are available for 4-6 at just £990 per person for a week. This is really too good to be missed.

Why not join the Jubilant for a week at the beginning of September, when the weather should be glorious and the vineyards will be dripping with grapes almost ready for the annual harvest.
Call us on +33 380 39 29 38 or send me an email to hotelsafloat@aol.com
for more information or to book your cruise.
