Black Friday special: European Waterways announces 30% off 2020 cruises

European Waterways is offering a Black Friday special with 30% off some of its popular 2020, six-night, all-inclusive whole boat charters in France, or Holland, a saving of up to ?12,900 per charter.

This special is available for a limited time and should be booked between Friday, November 29 and Tuesday, December 3.

Eligible departure dates include March 29, 2020 aboard Panache, which cruises Holland during the tulip festival; April 5, 2020 aboard La Belle Epoque, cruising the renowned wine region of Burgundy, France; April 26, 2020 aboard L?Art de Vivre, also cruising Burgundy; and April 12, 2020 aboard Anjodi on France?s picturesque Canal du Midi, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Black Friday special cannot be combined with other offers and applies to new bookings only.

Derek Banks, managing director of hotel barge operator, said: ?Luxury barge cruising is one of the travel industry?s most exciting new trends as experiential travel grows in popularity. 

?With most barges accommodating just six to twelve guests - ideal for charters by family and friends - and cruising the often unspoiled countryside, they offer a unique opportunity to become immersed in the history, architecture and cuisine of the region.  Excursions take guests on a ?voyage of discovery,? deep into the true ?soul? of its people and culture.?

He added: ?One day you can be dining with a baroness, enjoying exclusive food and wine tastings, taking private tours of fabulous chateaux, castles and royal estates ? and the next you might be sitting for tea with a humble lock keeper in his canal-side home, or enjoying a private performance by local musicians.?

Based on 30% off the whole boat charter prices, the  12-passenger Panache in Holland can now be chartered for ?30,100, a saving of ?12,900 off the regular price of ?43,000.  

Prices include accommodations in en suite cabins; locally-sourced gourmet meals cooked by the onboard master chef ? all paired with regional wines; free onboard amenities such as bicycles and an open bar stocked with wines, spirits and soft drinks; all excursions on the itinerary, with private transportation and guide.

Banks said: ?Luxury barge cruising is an unforgettable experience. From the moment you step on the boat to the moment you leave, our attentive crew will pamper and spoil you with their undivided attention and commitment to providing you with the highest standard of service.? 

Ten percent commission applies to travel agent bookings.
