Discovering Europe by water.<br />
Rivers and canals flow from bustling cities to quaint hamlets,<br />
linking the towns and villages of Western Europe. Everywhere<br />
there are tranquil yet breathtaking landscapes.<br />
Follow these waterways on board a comfortable barge or<br />
river cruiser and encounter a quieter, more relaxed side of<br />
Europe, revealed to you at a leisurely pace with attentive<br />
personal service.<br />
Each barge has its own décor, with interiors ranging from<br />
humble French country to grand English manor styles.<br />
Meals are included in every sailing, prepared by on-board<br />
chefs and served in inviting surroundings.<br />
Set out on a hotel sailing and join other like-minded<br />
travellers or charter a private departure with family and<br />
friends for a relaxing vacation on Europe’s waterways.<br />
A&K offers a number of itineraries throughout Europe,<br />
providing you with the opportunity to experience the local<br />
history and culture of many regions:<br />
Britain and Ireland<br />
History seems to unfold before your eyes as you cruise<br />
Scotland’s Caledonian Canal, England’s River Thames<br />
or Ireland’s Loch Derg. From Macbeth’s castle and Loch<br />
Ness in Scotland to Runnymede and Windsor Castle in<br />
England and Ireland’s ring forts and a haunted castle, all<br />
are available for up close and personal exploration.<br />
The barge cruising experience.<br />
Holland and Belgium<br />
When you first think of Holland and Belgium, tulips and<br />
chocolate may come to mind. Yet there is so much more —<br />
streets are framed by medieval architecture, and precious<br />
works by the Old Masters hang in the museums.<br />
France<br />
Just outside the arms of busy Paris, the Loire Valley is<br />
home to tranquil flowing fields adorned with magnificent<br />
châteaux. To the east, centuries-old wine estates and<br />
German-inspired cuisine await in Alsace-Lorraine. In<br />
Burgundy, see thriving vineyards and small villages that<br />
dot the rolling hills, while Provence has inspired artists for<br />
centuries with the scent of lavender fields and olive groves.<br />
Germany and Central Europe<br />
No destination is as peaceful and idyllic as the fairy tale<br />
region of Germany or the historic, palace-laden cities<br />
along the Danube. The blue-green carpet of Germany’s<br />
Moselle region is best seen from a luxury barge as it<br />
meanders down the river.<br />
Regardless of the route you choose, your barge vacation<br />
includes everything you need to make your holiday<br />
complete, from guided sightseeing and entry fees to<br />
transfers and accommodations to three delicious meals<br />
daily with wine — always featuring the best local flavors<br />
and ingredients.<br />
