MV Le Boreal - Setur

I founded Abercrombie & Kent in East Africa nearly 50 years ago with little 

more than a 4x4, a couple of tents and an improvised ice-maker. Little did I 

know at the time I was not only pioneering the concept of the mobile safari 

but also creating a blueprint for a travel company that now takes people to 

every corner of the world, not only in comfort, style and absolute safety, but 

also ensuring they have an authentic experience of their destination – in a 

way that suits their individual preferences. 

The key to A&K’s success lies in our belief in leaving nothing to chance, our 

ability to anticipate the individual needs of our clients and focusing on the 

little details that can elevate a journey from being simply a great holiday to 

an experience of a lifetime. 

From the moment you first make an enquiry with us to when you arrive 

back at home, our team of travel experts – both in the UK and on the 

ground – will do everything in their power to exceed your expectations. 

We look forward to being able to show you the A&K difference. 

Geoffrey Kent: Founder, Chairman and CEO

With over 60 offices in 33 countries throughout the world, we have 

more specialists in more places than any other travel company. The 

A&K ‘family’ comprises local people on the ground in each country 

who know who’s who and what’s what in their region – and who, 

through their personal connections, are able to open doors that 

would normally be closed to visitors. Among the diversity of colourful 

personalities within our teams, attributes common to all are their 

dedication to immaculate service and attention to detail – and a desire 

to make your holiday the best experience it can possibly be. 

They know how to circumnavigate bureaucratic obstacles and queues 

to ensure your holiday is exactly that – a holiday. Whether meeting 

you straight off the plane and guiding you into your air-conditioned 

vehicle stocked with plenty of chilled water or arranging for museums 

to be opened especially for you outside public opening hours, the A&K 

team will ensure your journey is comfortable, safe and relaxing, with 

seamless arrangements and service every step of the way. 

 

A&K’s reputation and rigorous selection policy enable us to identify 

and recruit the very best guides, who are entertaining, engaging, fluent 

in English and knowledgeable on all aspects of their country or region. 

Not only will they provide enthralling insights into their country’s 

history, culture and wildlife, they will also look after you as though you 

were a guest in their own home. 

 

Every Abercrombie & Kent office plays a hands-on role in its 

community, sponsoring projects that have both social and ecological 

benefits for the region. Our focus is on initiatives that offer 

opportunities for A&K clients to become personally involved and give 

something back to the community they are visiting. Our travel experts 

will provide more information on the individual projects supported 

through A&K Philanthropy in any country, or visit

been to the places you’d like to vist. Our specialists have travelled on 

every vessel we feature here, and our policy of facilitating first-hand

what you want from your holiday, and ask you the questions that will

holiday that is just right for you.

A voyage on the mighty 

Yangzi allows you to cross many miles of 

this vast country in comfort, watching 

a vivid tableau unfolding on its banks, 

revealing steeply hidden terraced hillsides, 

local villages and dramatic gorges. The 

pace of life along its banks remains 

remarkably untouched, its old world 

charm little changed with the relentless 

march of technology. Sanctuary MS 

Yangzi Explorer is a 5-star vessel that takes 

you on a journey along this iconic river, 

taking in the sights and sounds of the 

region, while learning more about China’s 

ancient civilisation with the help of guides 

and experts on board. Tai Chi, Chinese 

cookery, calligraphy and silk embroidery 

classes are all available. A voyage on 

the Yangzi can be three or four nights 

depending on whether you travel up or 

downstream and is usually integrated into 

a longer journey through China. 

The 

breathtaking Three Gorges region 

provides a spectacular backdrop for a 

voyage of unsurpassed sheer physical 

beauty. On-shore excursions will 

highlight the scale and heritage of the 

river, from feats of engineering such 

as the Three Dams Project to scenic 

wonders such as the Shennong Stream 

and the culture and people of Wangzhou. 

Board local longboats, poled by Tujia 

boatmen, to explore inland creeks. 

Observe the bustle of traditional village 

life, farming and fishing techniques along 

the river banks. 

The Sanctuary 

MS Yangzi Explorer complement is 

limited to just 124 passengers allowing 

her staterooms to set a new standard 

in spaciousness and elegance. Evenings 

feature live entertainment. 

A team of 

internationally trained chefs and a wellstocked 

wine cellar ensure a superb dining 

experience. Innovative menus feature 

the finest of Chinese and continental 

cuisine and are served with excellent 

complimentary wines. 

Peak season 

is Spring (April and May) and Autumn 

(September, October and November). 

 

For centuries, the world’s most advanced 

civilisation, China offers today’s traveller 

a journey just as stimulating as that of 

Marco Polo when he first encountered its 

ancient secrets and culture.

Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer is one of only two 5-star vessels operating in 

the spectacular Three Gorges region of China. Elegant and stylish, it 

is perfect for relaxed cruising through spectacular and ever-changing 

landscapes. A large sun deck offers outstanding photo opportunities and 

is complemented by the Viewing Lounge and Cigar Bar, the ideal place 

to soak up the atmosphere over a relaxed pre-dinner drink. On-board 

facilities include a spa and fitness centre, a two-tiered theatre, coffee 

lounge and a multi-language library. 

Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer has 62 air-conditioned cabins, including 24 

suites. All have balconies, panoramic windows and private bathrooms. 

Each is equipped with a shower, hairdryer, satellite television with 

in-house movies, a CD player, direct dial international telephone and 

complimentary mini bar. Our favourites are the four stunning Speciality 

Suites – the 732 square foot Jade and Mandarin Suites and 829 square 

foot Celestial and Imperial Suites – which are beautifully furnished and 

the largest available anywhere on the Yangzi River. 

On arrival in Chongqing, board the Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer for an 

absorbing four day/three night 660 km (402 mile) cruise. After time to 

settle in to your deluxe cabin and a leisurely dinner, the ship will set sail 

on its downstream course through the Three Gorges region, considered 

to be one of the most scenic areas in China. There is also an upstream 

voyage starting in Yichang lasting five days and four nights. 

On shore excursions are a fascinating opportunity, in the company of 

experienced and knowledgeable guides, to learn about the river’s history 

and ecology. After a day’s exploration, return for sundowners in the 

Viewing Lounge or on the sun deck. For a romantic and intimate meal, 

we recommend the vessel’s exclusive private dining rooms for two, 

where you will enjoy delicious à la carte food and a selection of French 

and New World wines.

RV PAUKAN AND THE ROAD TO MANDALAY 

LAOS 

THAILAND 

Myanmar is one 

of the most physically diverse and 

beautiful countries in the region, if not 

the world. From its sublime landscapes, 

rich history, serene peoples and deeply 

Buddhist culture, it is a destination like 

no other. Long quarantined from outside 

influence, the country’s cultural heritage 

and traditional lifestyles have remained 

untouched. It offers a wealth of wonders 

that are not beset by hordes of tourists, 

most notably Bagan and the Ayeyarwady 

River, Myanmar’s largest river, stretching 

2,170 km. A supremely relaxing way to 

appreciate the charms of Myanmar is to 

travel along a stretch of the Ayeyarwady 

in luxury on the RV Paukan or The Road 

to Mandalay; a wonderful opportunity 

to observe the unchanged lives of river 

people and bankside villages, absorbing 

the countless impressions that this giant 

natural highway has to offer. 

Explore 

a new destination each day or simply 

relax on board. In Mingun, see the 

Mingun Bell, the Unfinished Pagoda and 

Myatheindan Pagoda. Arise early to enjoy 

sunrise over Sagaing Hill before visiting 

Sagaing, once the capital, now a religious 

centre supporting dozens of Buddhist 

monasteries. The voyage culminates in 

Bagan, a city that is the result of 2,500 

years of frenzied religious building 

resulting in over 4,400 temples, some in 

ruins but many in good repair, stretched 

over miles of windswept sand. 

Both boats have 

been especially adapted for cruising on 

the Ayeryarwady in supreme comfort. 

Paukan is traditional and intimate and 

carries just 55 passengers. Its teak-walled 

cabins and suites are furnished in colonial 

and Myanmar style, most with balconies. 

The Road to Mandalay is a larger vessel, 

arranged over four decks, with 42 cabins 

of varying sizes, decorated in a luxurious 

and contemporary style. 

Anytime from 

November to March, although the very 

best time to visit is late November and 

early December when the rains have gone, 

the landscape is lush and the skies are 

crystal clear.

The lovely RV Paukan is a boutique hotel on the river, beautifully 

furnished with a unique combination of modern and traditional motifs. 

The timber-walled cabins are furnished with colonial style cupboards, 

dresser and doors, while the ceiling is traditional Myanmar. The vessel 

carries up to 55 passengers and a 30 strong crew. 

For luxury living, the Paukan has suites, deluxe or superior cabins as 

well as singles for guest or guides – we recommend the Deluxe Cabins 

which come with a French balcony and sliding doors for spectacular 

views of the river. There are two massage rooms on the lower deck 

offering traditional Myanmar massage designed to give soothing 

relaxation. The sun deck has a stage for cultural performances, and a 

bar and lounge for relaxation and fun. The upper deck has a lecture/ 

movie room with LCD projector and LCD TV screen. The fine on-board 

dining includes cuisine from both the East and West. 

 

This elegant vessel, air-conditioned throughout, has four decks – Deluxe, 

State, Main and Observation, 18 State Cabins, 16 Deluxe Cabins, 4 

Superior Cabins as well as 4 Singles. With the emphasis on comfort and 

luxury, the spacious en suite cabins are furnished with the most beautiful 

fabrics, finest linens and softest towels. 

The Observation Deck, with its shady canopies and relaxing cane 

furniture, makes a superb balcony for viewing the theatre of the busy 

river and the magical sunsets, complemented by the pool and deck bar. 

On the Main Deck there is a spacious Observation Lounge, the Kipling 

piano-bar with its wonderful Myanmar lacquerwork and local wood, 

and the restaurant offering seven different themes: Burmese, Shan, Thai, 

Indonesian, Chinese, Indian and European.

Cruising on the 

Mekong across Cambodia and Vietnam 

brings to life many highlights of both 

countries. A key draw of Cambodia is the 

extraordinary temple complex of Angkor, 

the legacy of the Khmer Empire and one 

of the most astounding sites in the world. 

Vietnam has re-emerged as a vital and 

attractive country with exotic Ho Chi 

Minh City and the lush green vegetation 

of the Mekong Delta. On the RV Mekong 

Pandaw, cruise between Ho Chi Minh, the 

exotic French-influenced former capital 

of South Vietnam, Phnom Penh, the 

Cambodian capital, and the stupendous 

World Heritage monuments at Angkor, 

the perfect way to explore two countries 

in one voyage of discovery. By contrast, 

the RV Orient Pandaw voyages along the 

Rajang River in Borneo, home to one of 

the most diverse ecosystems in the world. 

The luxurious Eastern & Oriental Express 

provides you with perfect surroundings 

in which to relax and become immersed 

in the splendour of the ever-changing 

scenery in South East Asia. 

Observe 

the fascinating and varied river life along 

the banks of the Mekong, appreciating 

the striking cultural contrast between 

the bustling Vietnam delta and the 

tranquillity of Cambodia. In Borneo, 

discover magnificent scenery and take 

in river towns, jungle treks and wildlife 

– a true jungle adventure. A two night 

journey on the Eastern & Oriental Express 

takes you north east from Singapore 

crossing Malaysia over the straits of Johor, 

onwards to Kuala Lumpur. Enjoy a guided 

tour of Georgetown before moving 

onwards to Thailand. Journey to Laos, 

relaxing and absorbing the beauty of the 

surroundings as the gentle pace of life 

captivates you. 

Anytime from 

November to April, although the Mekong 

River is at its absolute best in November 

when the river is full and the countryside

A Pandaw cruise allows you to explore many magnificent and off the 

beaten places in these fascinating countries in absolute comfort – fine 

dining, cocktails, select wines and superb levels of service – with no need 

to check in and out of hotels and endure bumpy roads. The RV Pandaws 

were designed and finished as replicas of a colonial river steamer and 

are between 180 ft and 200 ft long, with a crew of 28 under European 

management. The large staterooms are finished in teak and brass and 

there are 30 air-conditioned teakwood-accented cabins, decorated with 

local hand-spun fabrics, furnished with local rattan, all with private 

facilities including a shower room. The Middle and Upper deck cabins 

open to promenades. There is a spacious dining room on the Main deck 

and the large sun deck is half covered by an awning for shade. Whilst the 

staterooms are comfortable and roomy, you may prefer to sit outside on 

the promenade decks or on the vast observation deck above. 

 

A quarter of a mile in length, the Eastern & Oriental Express luxury 

train recaptures the golden age of rail travel through one of the 

world’s most beautiful and exotic regions. Three grades of beautifully 

appointed compartments are offered: Superior Cabins, State Cabins 

and Presidential Suites. The interior walls are cherry wood and elm burr 

panelled, adorned with decorative marquetry and intricate inlays. Each 

cabin is fully air-conditioned with an en suite shower, washbasin and WC 

and features large picture windows for an excellent view of the passing 

scenery. The Observation Car’s interior section is the perfect place to 

enjoy cocktails amidst a colonial ‘veranda’ ambience. Relax to the sounds 

of the resident pianist before enjoying a sumptuous meal. One-third of 

the Observation Car offers unobstructed views, the perfect place to take 

photographs of the panoramic scenery and experience the sights, sounds 

and scents of South East Asia.

India’s incredible riches – its iconic temples, diverse 

culture, spectacular scenery and exotic wildlife – make it 

one of the most compelling destinations on the planet.

Witness the 

enchanting rural landscapes and bustling 

towns and cities. Absorb life on the banks 

of the Ganges or cross the desert in 

Rajasthan. Feel the surge of adrenalin when 

you spot a tiger in Ranthambore, observe 

the spiritual drama of a funeral at Varanisi, 

explore the fairytale forts and palaces of 

Northern India, not least the shimmering 

Taj Mahal. Observe local fishermen’s 

ingenious way of catching fish in the south. 

The challenge presented 

by this vast subcontinent is fitting in 

everything you want to see in a limited 

period of time – perhaps this is why many 

people return to India time and again. 

However, a majestic train journey covers 

a great many miles in the most efficient 

way, travelling in luxury through stunning 

landscapes absorbing authentic Indian life 

en route and stopping for excursions to 

take in the landmarks, sights and sounds 

of India – while enjoying a flavour of a 

bygone era. Alternatively, a 12 night cruise 

on the RV Bengal Pandaw, covering 800 

miles on the River Ganges from Kolkata 

to the holy city of Varanasi, is a wonderful 

way to experience North West India. 

For a shorter cruise experience, we offer 

a leisurely two day cruise through the 

backwaters of Kerala in Southern India. 

Sumptuous suites 

and cabins await the Maharajas’ Express. 

Kerala houseboats have one or two 

bedroomed ensuite cabins. Bengal Pandaw 

offers comfortable accommodation. 

Executive chefs on 

board the Maharajas’ Express combine 

the best of Asian fusion delicacies, with 

European options available. Aboard a 

houseboat and Bengal Pandaw, enjoy 

a fusion of local fruit, vegetables, rice, 

fish and chicken cooked with distinctive 

flavours of pepper, cardamom, chillies, 

turmeric and cloves. 

From October 

to March the weather is refreshingly cool 

with minimal rainfall – although water 

levels in the Ganges can be low at this time 

(and itineraries may vary as a result).

Following their successful voyages throughout South East Asia, Pandaw 

Cruises now operate on India’s greatest river, the Ganges. A replica of a 

colonial steamer, RV Bengal Pandaw offers a relaxed and informal way 

of seeing some of India’s most fascinating cities. 

Wherever possible, the chefs use locally sourced produce to create a 

choice of Indian and vegetarian menus. Complimentary tea, coffee and 

mineral water are available at all times and local beers and spirits are 

available during dinner. The staff to guest ratio is high, ensuring an 

excellent level of service. A journey on Bengal Pandaw is a very special 

experience as it cruises along India’s most holy of rivers. Passengers are 

invited to join escorted shore excursions or explore under their own 

steam if they prefer – or simply stay on board to enjoy the ever-changing 

views of life on the banks of this sacred river. For travellers seeking their 

own adventure, or for those who prefer to share their experience and 

expand their knowledge of this remote region of India, Bengal Pandaw 

and its staff will provide the perfect platform. 

 

Kerala houseboats are available with or without air-conditioning, 

although we recommend the former. The large bedrooms are equipped 

with comfortable twin beds complete with mosquito nets. Once on 

board, absorb the intoxicating charm of Kerala’s backwaters from the 

deck as you gently flow past traditional villages, lush paddy fields and 

swaying coconut palms. The houseboat is staffed with a crew of three: 

captain, engineer and cook. Having a cook on board allows you to 

wake up to a sumptuous sadya breakfast served on plantain leafs. In the 

evening, enjoy a local Kerala dish such as fish molee.

Conceived as a palatial hotel reminicent of the days of Indian royal 

splendour, this train journey brings you closer to the real experience. 

The luxuriously appointed and stylishly designed cabins are equipped 

with every modern amenity and comfort. There are five carriages for 

Deluxe Cabins, six for Junior Suites, two for Suites and one grand 

Presidential Suite, all with large panoramic windows. All cabins come 

with individual temperature controls and the latest facilities: LCD 

televisions with a choice of in-house movies and television, DVD 

players, direct dial telephone and internet access. Other facilities on 

board the train include an observation lounge with bar and game tables. 

The train offers a choice of restaurants; the Rang Mahal restaurant is 

decorated in the style of a grand Indian mansion, serving exquisite 

Indian delicacies and international cuisine. The Maijur Mahal restaurant 

offers fine dining in a charming, less formal environment. The in-house 

bar serves a range of exotic drinks; its wooden panelling and ambient 

lighting are just the thing after a day’s sightseeing. Complimentary wine 

and beer are served throughout dinner and tea and coffee are available 

at all times. In true maharaja style, formal dress is customary for dinner. 

 

Two different itineraries are available, each designed to unravel the 

varied tapestry of India’s majestic landscape. The eight day ‘Princely 

India’ journey begins in the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of Mumbai 

before moving onto the magical city of Udaipur and through the desert 

region of Rajasthan, the principality of Jodhpur and the medieval city 

of Bikaner. Explore Jaipur, search for tiger in Ranthambore and marvel 

at the Taj Mahal in Agra before your journey culminates in Delhi. The 

seven day ‘Classical India’ journey takes you to the hidden treasures of 

India. Departing from Delhi, you will visit the Taj Mahal en route to 

the temples of Khajuraho before searching for tigers in the magnificent 

Bandhavgarh National Park. Next visit the spiritual city of Varanasi with 

a cruise on the River Ganges. This spectacular journey concludes in 

Kolkata. Both itineraries operate in reverse with ‘Royal India’ mirroring 

‘Princely India’ and ‘Celestial India’ reversing the ‘Classical India’ route.

Conceived as a palatial hotel reminicent of the days of Indian royal

Deluxe Cabins, six for Junior Suites, two for Suites and one grand 

Presidential Suite, all with large panoramic windows. All cabins come 

with individual temperature controls and the latest facilities: LCD 

televisions with a choice of in-house movies and television, DVD 

players, direct dial telephone and internet access. Other facilities on 

board the train include an observation lounge with bar and game tables. 

The train offers a choice of restaurants; the Rang Mahal restaurant is 

decorated in the style of a grand Indian mansion, serving exquisite 

Indian delicacies and international cuisine. The Maijur Mahal restaurant 

offers fine dining in a charming, less formal environment. The in-house 

bar serves a range of exotic drinks; its wooden panelling and ambient 

lighting are just the thing after a day’s sightseeing. Complimentary wine 

and beer are served throughout dinner and tea and coffee are available 

at all times. In true maharaja style, formal dress is customary for dinner. 

 

Two different itineraries are available, each designed to unravel the 

varied tapestry of India’s majestic landscape. The eight day ‘Princely 

India’ journey begins in the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of Mumbai 

before moving onto the magical city of Udaipur and through the desert 

region of Rajasthan, the principality of Jodhpur and the medieval city 

of Bikaner. Explore Jaipur, search for tiger in Ranthambore and marvel 

at the Taj Mahal in Agra before your journey culminates in Delhi. The 

seven day ‘Classical India’ journey takes you to the hidden treasures of 

India. Departing from Delhi, you will visit the Taj Mahal en route to 

the temples of Khajuraho before searching for tigers in the magnificent 

Bandhavgarh National Park. Next visit the spiritual city of Varanasi with 

a cruise on the River Ganges. This spectacular journey concludes in 

Kolkata. Both itineraries operate in reverse with ‘Royal India’ mirroring 

‘Princely India’ and ‘Celestial India’ reversing the ‘Classical India’ route.

The intriguing ancient past is entwined with 

modern sophistication in this vast continent, 

a place where superlatives are the norm.

Australia offers a 

wealth of natural wonders and iconic 

contemporary structures. The greatest 

challenge is the sheer distance involved in 

travelling between them. Rail is a perfect 

solution; the miles between destinations 

are quickly devoured. We offer two epic 

journeys: The Ghan covers 1,900 miles 

between Darwin and Adelaide, whereas 

The Indian Pacific moves between Perth 

and Sydney. By contrast, to explore the 

dramatic wilderness of the Kimberley 

region, its rugged mountains, magnificent 

gorges and majestic waterfalls, the True 

North adventure yacht, complete with 

its own helicopter, is an experience of a 

lifetime in itself. 

Witness 

the spectacular landscapes of Australia’s 

Northern Territory to South Australia’s 

sweeping Adelaide Plains and the 

majestic Flinders Ranges, the evocative 

Blue Mountains and the treeless plains 

of the Nullarbor desert. Catch glimpses 

of Australia’s unique wildlife as 

kangaroos bound alongside. Dolphins, 

giant turtles and saltwater crocodiles are 

abundant in the tropical waters of North 

Western Australia. 

The cabins on 

True North are luxuriously appointed 

with en suite bathrooms, TV and satellite 

phones. Cabins on the trains convert 

from three seater lounge seats to twin 

berths and have en suite facilities. 

Signature meals 

aboard True North include freshly caught 

barramundi. The menus aboard The Ghan 

and Indian Pacific trains will often feature 

native Australian cuisine. Excellent wines 

and beverages are available. 

All year round.

True North allows adventurers to appreciate the wilderness in 

surroundings akin to one of the world’s most exclusive hotels. You are 

able to take advantage of a number of lavish vantage points including a 

sundeck, a forward observation lounge, a ship’s lounge and an alfresco 

bar. The lower deck dining room offers the ultimate in comfort and 

uninterrupted vistas – large panoramic windows ensure that you 

never miss any of the action, even when you are enjoying the 

exceptional cuisine. 

The vast, exciting Kimberley region is one of the world’s last great 

wildernesses. Situated in the remote far north of Western Australia, 

it is like nowhere else on earth: wildly beautiful landscapes of rugged 

mountain ranges, spectacular river gorges and majestic waterfalls. 

A typical day might involve exploring an unknown estuary, trying 

to land the evening meal, swimming in rock pools beneath towering 

cascades or viewing ancient Aboriginal cave paintings. The region is 

steeped in curious stories of legendary human endeavour of shipwreck, 

survival and tragedy. Experience the power of the largest tidal range in 

the world. Like everything in the Kimberley the contrasts are extreme. 

Multiple expedition boats allow you to explore one of the most scenic 

and remote areas of Australia and to add yet another dimension to 

adventure, the True North is the only Kimberley adventure cruise ship 

that sails with its own helicopter. The purpose-built True North is able 

to explore the upper reaches of shallow river systems – so you need 

only step out of your cabin to experience the wilderness, while the latest 

computer-controlled motion stabilizers ensure a comfortable ride.

We recommend the Gold Service aboard the Indian Pacific and The 

Ghan, ideal for guests seeking a little extra style, space and comfort. 

Gold Twin Cabins feature a three seater lounge converting to upper and 

lower sleeping berths and have en suite facilities with toilet, washbasin 

and shower. Gold Superior Cabins offer a small double bed plus 

additional fold down single bed. Features include a private lounge area 

with table, arm chairs, a DVD player plus a selection of titles, toiletries, 

complimentary chocolates, fruit bowl, plunger coffee, a bar-fridge 

stocked with complimentary refreshments, reserved seating at dinner 

or optional room service for meals and a complimentary bottle of wine 

with dinner. 

Gold Service guests dine in the elegant Restaurant Car. All meals are 

included in the Gold Service fare. The enjoyment of fine food and 

wine combined with views across this vast, beautiful continent is an 

unrivalled experience. The menus feature a fusion of Australian and 

international cuisine, cooked to perfection by the on-board chefs. 

Quality wines and beverages are available for purchase. 

The Gold Lounge is often the centre of activity for any journey. The 

cosy, club-like setting is an excellent place to socialise or sit back and 

enjoy the passing parade of Australian landscapes. The Lounge has a 

licensed bar and is the ideal place to gather for a drink before dinner or 

for a game of cards and a nightcap with new friends.

Follow in Captains Scott’s wake on board our new state-of-theart 

expedition ship, MV Le Boreal, to discover the magical White 

Continent, nature’s last, remote and fascinating stronghold.

Absorb 

spectacular vistas and magnificent 

landscapes. Sail through the stunning 

Lemaire Channel, bathe in the warm waters 

at Whaler’s Bay on Deception Island, a 

sheltered black beach and harbour hidden 

within the flooded caldera of an active 

volcano. Capture the light changing on 

giant icebergs as they float by. Enjoy the 

company of a million pairs of Adelie 

penguins at Paulet Island and listen for the 

haunting songs of humpback whales. 

An almost total absence 

of human presence has preserved one 

of Antarctica’s greatest attractions, its 

wildlife. Cruising through the iceberg 

strewn waters you will see many unique 

species of seals, whales, dolphins 

and penguins in close proximity. An 

outstanding feature of our Antarctica 

voyages is the exceptional cailbre of the 

expedition staff who accompany you – 

leading experts in the fields of marine 

biology, ornithology, geology, photography 

and environmental ecology. On every 

voyage A&K has a specific lecturer for 

each of these topics. Their expertise makes 

an enormous contribution to the unique 

on-board mood of relaxed conviviality 

blended with a sense of adventure 

and discovery. They provide on-board 

briefings and escort all shore excursions. 

The 104 luxurious 

staterooms and suites on MV Le Boreal 

all have private balconies and en suite 

showers, equipped with hairdryer and 

bathrobes and can be configured as 

doubles or two single beds. 24 hour room 

service and laundry services are available. 

Le Boreal features 

two restaurants, one offering international 

contemporary gourmet cuisine, the other 

a more casual grill with both indoor and 

alfresco dining. 

December, 

when the winter ice pack begins to break 

up creating new landscapes and pristine 

icebergs, to January, when the Antarctic 

summer is in full swing with the first 

penguin chicks and seal pups emerging.

For 2010/2011, Abercrombie & Kent has exclusively chartered the 

spacious new MV Le Boreal, an all-balcony expedition ship, considered 

by many experts to be the best expedition ship in Antarctica. The sleek, 

contemporary design of Le Boreal allows us to offer a distinctly different 

adventure cruise experience with private balconies and access to crystalclear 

bays and narrow fjords that the big cruise ships simply can’t reach. 

Benefiting from a sleek silhouette and innovative, state-of-the-art 

marine technology, Le Boreal features a convenient layout, aided by 

three passenger elevators. Highlights include a single seating dining 

room, alfresco dining, an outdoor heated pool (available subject to 

weather and calm conditions) and a modern lecture facility and theatre, 

as well as a well-equipped library. Additionally there is a full-service 

salon, steam rooms, spa and fitness centre. 

The elegant guest quarters are among the most spacious and 

comfortable on any Antarctic cruise. Amenities include a mini-bar, 

safe, flat-screen television, DVD/CD player, iPod player, individuallycontrolled 

heat/air-conditioning, wireless internet access throughout 

the ship and direct-dial telephone. Le Boreal sets high standards of 

comfort in her public quarters as well. The Panoramic Lounge and 

Terrace offer spacious areas ideal for afternoon tea or just relaxing with 

magnificent ocean views. The Club provides the perfect evening place 

with its convivial atmosphere and live music and dancing. 

 

Designed with the environment in mind, Le Boreal is the most 

environmentally-friendly ship to sail in Antarctica, with cutting-edge 

technology that includes the most up-to-date waste water system, 

recycling facilities, and other measures designed to ensure that the ship 

operates with minimal impact on the environment.

From north to south, 

Chile’s Lake District stretches from 

the Pacific to the Andes, famous for its 

deep blue mountain lakes, snow-capped 

volcanoes and larch forests. Lakes perforate 

a landscape interspersed with abundant 

rivers, waterfalls, forests and thermal 

hot springs. Gliding through unspoiled 

natural habitats, observing the abundant 

wildlife and accessing remote fjords, 

islands and some of the world’s greatest 

fishing spots where few have been before is 

a true privilege; this is exactly what awaits 

guests on board MV Atmosphere, in the 

company of highly trained expert guides. 

Or, for those wishing to head to Argentina 

from Chile (or vice versa), a voyage on 

an Australis vessel takes you from Punta 

Arenas to Ushuaia, passing through the 

Straits of Magellan, the Beagle Channel 

and around Cape Horn. 

Join 

the Atmosphere marine biologists in a 

whale-watching programme where you 

will be on the lookout for sperm whale, 

killer whale and the blue whale, and 

Peale’s Chilean, Dusky and Commerson’s 

dolphin. Discover the astonishing natural 

beauty of Patagonia with a host of 

outdoor activities: trek along the coast, 

through forests on remote islands and 

pass hot springs; experience the thrill 

of a jetboat expedition; raft on remote 

mountain rivers and kayak through the 

fjords; ride horses through untamed 

terrain or go heli-fishing in lakes seldom 

visited. On board the Australis vessels, stop 

to admire impressive glaciers, penguin and 

elephant seal colonies. 

Atmosphere has 

just 14 luxurious and highly specified 

ensuite cabins with panoramic windows. 

Australis vessels vary in size and have 64 or 

104 ensuite cabins. 

Australis 

operates two expeditions: ‘Tasting Chile’ 

in November, December and April and 

‘Ultimate Fly-Fishing and Wildlife’ 

from December to March (apart from 

Christmas and New Year which is 

charter only). Australis operates from 

September to April.

MV Atmosphere has been designed with exploring uncharted Patagonia 

in mind, by land, air and water. A small expedition ship, its complement 

is limited to just 28 passengers, manned by a crew of 32. It carries 

a six passenger Bell 407 helicopter to airlift explorers to otherwise 

unreachable rivers and lakes, six jet-boats to attack the most remote 

rivers and a Zodiac Hurrican to scour the coastline in all its rugged glory. 

Waiting ashore in secret spots are inflatable zodiacs and Mackenzie drift 

boats to complete this all-encompassing transport system. 

The two types of week-long expedition focus on ecotourism and fly 

fishing respectively, aiming to take guests to breathtaking places that 

are inaccessible to most travellers. Magnificent, virtually untouched 

fishing spots, whale watching (best in February and March) and wildlife 

excursions, nature photography and a raft of outdoor activities such as 

jet-boating, kayaking, riding and trekking await in this most pristine 

and untouched part of the world. 

On board Atmosphere, a sauna and open air jacuzzi on the top deck 

await guests after a long day. The spacious lounge, dining and bar area 

on the boat deck is equipped with books, DVDs and music. Gournet 

dining on board is accompanied by an excellent selection of sommelierselected 

wines. 

 

 

It is a four night journey on an Australis vessel from Punta Arenas to 

Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego, the uttermost end of the earth. Equipped 

with zodiac vessels, during the trip there will be many opportunities to 

disembark the ship to explore glaciers, beaches and forests to appreciate 

the formation, flora and fauna, accompanied by your guides. The same 

journey in reverse involves three nights on board.

flora and fauna, it is less a case of viewing 

and more of interaction. As most of the 

islands are uninhabited and there are no 

predators, the animals and birds have no 

fear of humans; snorkel with penguins, 

swim with turtles and surf with sea lions; 

admire hundreds of blue-footed boobies 

plummeting into the water in unison and 

watch a giant tortoise wallowing in the 

swamps of Santa Cruz. 

The Galapagos Islands 

are an archipelago, National Park and 

Marine Reserve a thousand kilometres 

off the coast of Ecuador. Darwin’s living 

laboratory is a world apart, exceptional 

for its fearless and truly unparalleled 

wildlife and its barren, volcanic and 

markedly beautiful landscape. The best 

way to enjoy these remarkable islands is 

a cruise on board the finest expedition 

ships in the islands – MV Eclipse and La 

Pinta. The ships anchor off-shore each 

day from where, in small groups, you are 

ferried to land in motorised dinghies. 

Here, our naturalist guides will provide 

expert insights into the flora and fauna 

that greets you. The Galapagos Islands are 

a two hour flight from Quito. 

With many 

opportunities to hike, kayak and take 

stunning close-up photographs of the 

MV Eclipse 

accommodates up to 48 passengers in 

large Staterooms. All have sea views, 

well-appointed bathrooms and amenities 

usually associated with hotels. The 

Eclipse’s spacious areas combine perfectly 

with its upscale interiors and peronalised 

service. La Pinta accommodates up to 48 

guests in 24 ample Staterooms, all with 

large windows providing breathtaking 

views of the ever-changing scenery. 

International, with 

a choice of excellent wines and plenty of 

options for vegetarians and children. 

The Galapagos 

Islands are a year round destination; 

during the warm season, from November 

to May, days are sunny and the sea is very 

calm. The cooler, dry season, from June 

to October, is the breeding season when 

there may be more animal activity.

Owner operated and managed, MV Eclipse represents one of the finest 

expedition ships in the islands. She allows the more discerning traveller 

to experience one of the world’s greatest natural treasures in the comfort 

of a vessel that offers generous accommodation, ample deck space and 

alfresco dining, whilst preserving the atmosphere and exclusivity of 

a smaller yacht. She also has an observation deck, library, jacuzzi and 

snorkelling equipment and wet suits available. 

From your comfortable base aboard the Eclipse, you will be able to 

explore the best sites in the islands. There are many opportunities 

to hike, swim, snorkel, kayak, bird-watch and take great close-up 

photographs of the flora and fauna. Eclipse anchors off-shore at two sites 

per day. Passengers are divided into groups of a maximum of 12 people, 

each with its own naturalist guide. All guides are certified naturalists. 

Eclipse was successfully certified within the Rainforest Alliance ‘Smart 

Voyager’ programme in November 2007 and is dedicated to protecting 

the fragile ecosystems of the Galapagos Islands. Additionally a portion 

of the sale of every voyage is annually donated to a variety of worthy 

causes in Galapagos and more than 60% of its employees are permanent 

or temporary residents of Galapagos. 

 

Eclipse has developed selected Family Departures. Professional guides 

(certified by the Galapagos National Park and specialised in guiding 

children) entertain the children all day long. Activities include faster 

guided walks, which are just as educational, and beach games with 

seperate children’s briefings and ‘Kids’ Menus’ available at mealtimes. 

This leaves you to enjoy the cruise at your own pace, in the knowledge 

that your children are in safe hands and making their own discoveries 

about the history of evolution and the wonders of the islands.

Yacht La Pinta offers a very comfortable base from wich to visit 

Galapagos highlights such as James Island, Fernandina, Española, Santa 

Cruz and the Charles Darwin Research Station, home to Lonesome 

George the giant tortoise, the last remaining individual of this otherwise 

extinct species. All 24 stateroom cabins have large windows for 

breathtaking views of the ever-changing scenery. 

There are many opportunities for hiking, swimming, snorkelling, birdwatching, 

kayaking and photography. La Pinta anchors off-shore at two 

visitor sites per day. Passengers are divided into groups of a maximum 

of 12 people, each with its own naturalist guide. 

In addition, there is a ‘Young Pirates’ programme, designed to ensure 

that children aged seven to 12 can enjoy the Galapagos experience at 

their own pace, through educational, children-only activities, special 

meals and recreational material. 

 

To cruise the Enchanted Islands is one of the most unique, magical and 

unforgettable holiday experience imaginable. To be able to enjoy such a 

holiday with friends and family makes it even more special – so why not 

charter the whole motor or sailing yacht solely for your group or family 

holiday What’s more, charter cruises gerenarally cost a little less per

MV AQUA 

HIRAM BINGHAM 

Stretching some 4,000 

miles from the Andes in Peru across 

northern Brazil, the Amazon is sometimes 

called The River Sea – in places 120 miles 

wide. The 5-star MV Aqua departs from 

Iquitos, gliding along the Peruvian section, 

docking at points to enable exploration of 

remote estuaries by river launch with your 

naturalist guide. The pristine rainforest 

teems with wildlife – Amazonia is home 

to two thirds of all species in the world 

– and you may encounter local people 

in primitive villages. By contrast, the 

sophistication of Machu Picchu, the Inca 

city built in the mid-15th century and 

rediscovered in 1911, is spellbinding; its 

ashlar ruins lie shrouded in swirling mist 

which slowly rises to reveal the dramatic 

setting. The Hiram Bingham Orient 

Express train takes you to this ancient 

citadel where a late morning arrival allows 

plenty of time to explore. 

The MV Aqua 

features 12 large suites offering a generous 

230 square feet of space with large picture 

windows, air-conditioning and en suite 

sitting areas. The ‘Hiram Bingham Orient 

Express’ consists of two dining cars, an 

observation bar car and a kitchen car, 

carrying up to 84 passengers. 

The Aqua chef 

specialises in Peruvian fusion served with 

regional wine, an opportunity to become 

acquainted with the best South American 

vintages. On board the Hiram Bingham, 

indulge in a three-course brunch on the 

ascent to Machu Picchu and four-course 

dinner with pisco sours on the way down. 

In high water 

season (December to May), the estuaries 

grow, allowing boats to venture deeper 

into the flooded forest; in low water (June 

to November, the receding river reveals 

beautiful beaches. Avoid Machu Picchu in 

the wet season (January to February).

A fascinating land of natural wonders, 

ancient civilisations and folklore, 

interwoven by the Amazon, the world’s 

mightiest river, and its tributaries.

The Hiram Bingham train is the most luxurious way to journey 

between Cusco and Machu Picchu. For many visitors a trip to Machu 

Picchu is a once in a lifetime experience. The Hiram Bingham assures a 

magical journey never to be forgotten. 

The carriages are painted a distinctive blue and gold while interiors are 

luxurious, warm and inviting with elegant decoration in the style of the 

1920’s Pullman trains. As passengers step on board they are encompassed 

in a world of polished wood, gleaming cutlery and glittering glass. 

The round trip between Machu Picchu and Cusco aboard the Hiram 

Bingham is a luxurious experience where every detail has been taken 

care of. Upon reaching your destination a guide will show you the 

highlights of the Machu Picchu citadel and bring Inca culture to life. 

 

A talented and experienced team of naturalists, Amazon River guides 

and professional crew live on board. Their expert knowledge of the 

Amazon’s wildlife, plants and birdlife and the history of this part of 

Peru makes the difference between a visit to Peru and an unforgettable 

experience on Peru’s Amazon River. 

The Aqua accommodates a maximum of 24 guests plus crew. This 

luxury vessel is the perfect size to sail along the Amazon, providing 

extremely comfortable lounge, dining and sleeping accommodation. 

You will enjoy an array of fresh Peruvian fare, whether served on board 

or on mid-adventure. Dinner is a culinary feast accompanied by select 

wines, with menus created by one of Peru’s star chefs. The ship’s 12 

oversized suites all feature en suite sitting areas. Four suites can be 

interconnected to cater for families. In between Amazon adventures, 

enjoy pre- or post-dinner cocktails in the air-conditioned indoor bar or 

head up to the Observation Deck to indulge in some sunbathing, a good 

book or simply watching the river go by.

THE BLUE TRAIN GARDEN ROUTE ROUTE 

A journey on one of 

‘the world’s most luxurious trains’ is the 

perfect way to experience the vastness of 

South Africa, its diverse landscapes and 

spectacular natural wonders. From Cape 

Town at the southern tip of the African 

continent, to Mpumalanga in the north, 

best known for Kruger National Park and 

the adjacent game reserves, Rovos Rail 

and The Blue Train will take you through 

desert landscapes, the lush cane fields of 

KwaZulu Natal, and the sandy bays and 

sheltered forests along the magnificent 

coastal Garden Route. 

Take in the 

exceptional views of Karoo, travel through 

the winelands, exploring the Western 

Cape vineyards, and world famous 

Montagu Pass. Visit the old mining town 

of Matjiesfontein and diamond mine 

Kimberley. Watch a southern right whale 

somersault in the ocean. 

Each Rovos Rail 

train has a maximum 36 compartments, 

deluxe suites with shower en suite 

facilities whilst the more spacious 

Royal Suites have baths. The Blue Train 

has either 37 or 29 suites with en suite 

facilities and a choice of bath or shower 

and are air-conditioned. Luxury suites 

have the addition of full size bath tubs. 

Aboard Rovos 

Rail indulge in entrées such as Cape 

rock lobster paired with the region’s best 

wines. The Blue Train offers a selection of 

local cuisine from Karoo lamb to Knysna 

oysters accompanied by award-winning 

cultivars from the Cape winelands. 

Visit the Cape 

in October to May; the wildflowers are 

at their best from August to September 

whilst the whale watching season runs 

from June to November.

Rovos Rail is rightly deserving of the international acclaim it receives for 

creating truly world class travel experiences. Refurbished using traditional 

techniques, the wood panelled coaches are in pristine condition and 

set the scene for a truly unique journey through some of Africa’s finest 

scenery. Hauled by steam, diesel and electric locomotives, just 72 

priviledged passengers can enjoy this elegant mode of travel at a time. 

Boasting the largest train suites in the world, comfort is assured aboard 

the sleeper carriages. Modern conveniences sit side by side with period 

Edwardian features and each suite is complete with en suite bathroom, 

twin or double bed and all the amenities you would expect of a modern 

5-star hotel. For an extra special experience the Royal Suites, each of 

which take up half a carriage benefit from the their own private lounge 

area, full bathroom with Victorian bath and separate shower. Enjoy 

fine cuisine in 5-star luxury as you travel through breathtaking scenery. 

Dress code is smart-casual in the day and jacket and tie for the evenings. 

 

The Blue Train combines the comfort of a hotel with the elegance and 

sophistication of luxury train travel. Since its inception in 1946, it has 

become synonymous with the ultimate in luxury and personal service. 

On board, there is a separate dining car and lounge. Dress code on 

board the train is smart-casual during the day but a jacket and tie are 

compulsory for gentlemen in the evening. Ladies dress elegantly for 

dinner. A gourmet menu of freshly cooked cuisine combined with 

the finest of South African wines makes dining on The Blue Train a 

memorable experience. There are two train configurations, sleeping 

between 58 and 74 guests. Both benefit from the latest suspension 

system which offers one of the smoothest rides that can be found on any 

train anywhere in the world.

The waters of the 

Chobe divide Namibia’s Caprivi Strip 

from Botswana’s Chobe Game Reserve, 

28,500 square km of lush African bush 

located to the north of the Okavanga 

Delta encompassing a variety of habitat, 

marshes, waterways, riverine forests, dry 

woodlands and the world-famous Savute 

Channel. The area teems with wildlife 

and is home to the largest population 

of elephants in the world. Namibia’s 

Caprivi area is a game-rich lush wetland, 

a birder’s paradise with more than 450 

species. The Zambezi Queen, a luxurious 

5-star safari vessel comprising just 14 

private suites and complete with deck 

pool, cruises through the Chobe’s waters. 

It is a romantic means of navigating 

this untamed area, whether observing 

animals gathering at the water’s edge 

at dawn and dusk, attempting to land 

a tiger fish or simply savouring a 

sundowner on the deck. 

Huge herds 

of elephant – up to 500 in size – prides 

of lion, huge groups of buffalo, leopard, 

waterbuck, roan, eland, sable and giraffe 

can all be observed on the banks of the 

river. In the river itself watch out for hippo 

and crocodile, keeping your binoculars at 

the ready for the rich variety of bird life. 

Cruising quietly along the river creates a 

wonderful sense of anticipation as to what 

you might spot next. 

All suites have 

private balconies and full length sliding 

shutters for both privacy and protection 

from the sun, sliding mosquito net doors, 

while the finest finishes complete this 

cocoon of creature comforts amidst the 

wilds of untamed Africa. 

Aboard the 

Zambezi Queen, meals are prepared by 

skilled chefs; fine South African wines 

are expertly selected to complement the 

gourmet menus and complimentary 

drinks are provided with all activities 

whether land or boat based. 

April to 

October when the days are warmest and 

sunniest, with cool evenings. 

 

There can be few natural wonders as synonymous 

with Africa’s raw wilderness as the great Chobe 

River, its banks boasting one of the densest 

populations of wildlife on the African continent.

The first and second levels of the boat incorporate 14 cabins tastefully 

furnished with either a double or two single beds. Of the 14 suites, six are 

master suites. Clever use of shutters situated on the outer edge of the deck and 

ceiling fans ensure a cool experience. Uniquely, the entire boat, including the 

top deck, living and dining area, has mosquito screening. 

The top deck consists of the dining room, the lounge including a wood 

burning fireplace, a bar and a sunbathing area complete with private pool. Also 

to be found in the living area is a library, numerous games and a telescope for 

studying the stars at night. 

Situated on the third level with unobstructed views on three sides, guests dine 

in absolute opulence whilst taking in the unique African surrounds.

III is a truly elegant vessel with the discreet ambience of an exclusive 

club, designed to be smaller than the average Nile cruiser to ensure a 

more personalised service. 

The décor and furnishing throughout are stunning and there is ample 

opportunity to appreciate the on-board elegance. Relax on the sundeck 

or in the lounge bar before dining in the restaurant offering gourmet 

menus and lavish buffets. With a drinks package included, there is no 

need to sign for local wines, beers and soft drinks. Sun worshippers 

will appreciate Cleopatra’s Oasis pool on the top deck, perfect for a 

refreshing dip after sunbathing. Internet access is available throughout 

the boat plus a multi-lingual library, games area, exercise machines on 

the shaded deck, laundry facilities and a souvenir and gift shop. Relax in

Every cruise on the Sun Boat III includes a colourful ‘galabeyya’ party, 

complete with belly dancing and whirling dervish shows. A trio of 

authentic Egyptian musicians will serenade you in Aswan during 

afternoon tea. Other highlights include a cruise northward to Nagaa 

Hammadi on a scenic route away from the crowds and other cruise 

ships. Along the way, your Egyptologist shares numerous insights about 

life in modern Egypt. You can take an optional visit to Aswan Spice 

Market to sharpen your bargaining skills or simply take in the colourful 

scene. Or why not enjoy an Egyptian cooking lesson on board

Sun Boat IV offers a truly memorable Nile experience with all the 

comforts expected of an A&K voyage – private docks in Luxor and 

Aswan and uniquely tailored sightseeing to help avoid the crowds, 

accompanied by a fully qualified Egyptologist who will provide an 

fascinating insight into ancient Egypt during your cruise. Every evening 

you can indulge in the quality of service, entertainment, on-board 

facilities, food and beverages with gourmet menus or lavish buffets. Sun

bathroom with shower, equipped with hairdryer, satellite television 

with in-house movies, direct dial international phone, safe and minibar. 

Facilities on the boat are similar to those of a luxury hotel: enjoy 

a sundowner in the elegant bar and lounge area or visit the small 

fully equipped gym. Or let the on-board masseuse work her magic on 

tired muscles in the spa cabin. Take a dip in the pool and relax on the 

spacious sun decks. Dine in the fine restaurant with picture windows 

to make the most of the views. Food is taken very seriously on board: 

weather permitting, a barbecue lunch will be served on deck while 

sailing and the inclusive drinks package makes life a breeze as it includes 

premium local wines, local beer and soft beverages. Mineral water is 

used to make the ice and in all food preparation, even the washing-up, 

to ensure the highest possible standard of hygiene. 

Each voyage features a colourful ‘galabeyya party’ while in Luxor, 

featuring a belly dancer and a whirling dervish show. A trio of authentic 

Egyptian musicians will serenade you in Aswan during afternoon tea.

The elegant Sanctuary MS Nile Adventurer has just 32 cabins, offering

in a modern, comfortable lounge style and providing gourmet cuisine 

and superb sightseeing experiences with the country’s most experienced 

Egyptologists, the Sanctuary Nile Adventurer is a taste of genuine 5-star 

luxury on this timeless river. 

The boat is a modern ethnic marvel with 32 beautifully designed cabins. 

The two presidential suites, two deluxe cabins and 28 standard cabins 

have all been created with comfort in mind. Spacious rooms and modern 

state of the art bathrooms are the hallmarks of each cabin. The public 

areas are fitted with luxurious furniture and oriental ornaments that 

beautifully reflect Egypt’s perfect mix of East and West. The sun deck, 

with its bamboo seats and teak floors, is the perfect place for sipping on 

a cocktail while floating past the beauty and serenity of Upper Egypt’s 

timeless landscapes. The vibrant, contrasting colours of the lounge are a 

great backdrop for lively evening conversation and afternoon gatherings. 

To cruise the Nile in style, in a modern, yet Egyptian atmosphere, the 

Sanctuary Nile Adventurer is the perfect choice. 

Whichever boat you sail on, you can be assured you will be guided by only 

the most experienced Egyptologists, selected not only for their expertise 

but also their entertaining and engaging manner, who will breathe life 

into the mysteries of the Pharaohs. These onboard experts also offer 

lectures on the day’s discoveries and discussions about Egypt, past and 

present. The expertise of our guides is matched by their contagious 

enthusiasm, whether discussing tombs, Pharaonic deities and myths, 

more recent Egyptian history or the flora and fauna of the Nile Valley.

France is the most 

visited country in the world; little wonder 

when you contemplate its array of beautiful 

regions. Explore the inland waterways 

of rural France at the peaceful pace of a 

barge, savouring the food, tasting the wine, 

exploring the châteaux and admiring the 

views. Relax as you meander along treelined 

routes through the wine region of 

Bordeaux and the languid Dordogne valley, 

past Renaissance châteaux in the Loire 

Valley and the medieval fairytale city of 

Carcassonne in the Languedoc. 

Travel 

through the picturesque Burgundy 

region with private wine tastings and 

a visit to Dijon, the town famed for its 

mustard. Wine connoisseurs will delight 

in visits on the Route des Grands Crus 

and gastronomes will enjoy lunch at the 

Michelin starred restaurant at Abbaye 

All four barges 

have outside facing cabins with en suite 

facilities, drawers and wardrobe space and 

opening portholes or windows. Each has 

spacious saloon and dining areas, central 

heating, air-conditioning or cooling and 

umbrella-shaded sun decks. Many have a 

small library, games and a music centre and 

some carry bicycles for use on towpaths. 

It is a point of 

pride that the food aboard these barges 

can compete with some of the very best 

restaurants in France. On board, breakfast 

includes fresh breads and pastries whilst 

lunches might be a delicious buffet of 

patés, charcuterie, salads, desserts, fruit 

and cheeses or a sumptuous picnic. Fouror 

five-course dinners are served each 

evening. Throughout the cruise you will 

sample fine wines, often from regional 

vineyards, at both lunch and dinner. 

The climate is 

mainly temperate, with the south enjoying 

hot summers and mild winters.

La Belle Epoque can accommodate 13 passengers and cruises the 

idyllic waterways of the Burgundy Canal through Burgundy. With 

spacious air-conditioned double/twin en suite cabins and one single 

both elegance and passenger comfort were in mind when designing 

this hotel barge. The wide deck, sun deck and spa pool offer superb 

vantage points to watch rural France go by. On board La Belle Epoque 

your captain leads a crew of five, comprising Master Chef, Tour Guide, 

Housekeeper and Stewardess. 

The 13 passenger L’Impressionniste is the sister ship to La Belle Epoque 

and began life as a cargo barge in Holland, before undergoing a complete 

transformation into the powerful canal and river cruiser she is today. She 

has a light and airy interior reminiscent of the turn of the century era 

and is decorated with a selection of prints, fabrics and wall colourings. 

Crewed by a knowledgeable Captain, Master Chef and crew of three. 

The eight passenger Anjodi was specifically rebuilt to navigate the 

300 year old Canal du Midi. Offering four air-conditioned en suite 

bedrooms and a jacuzzi on the deck, she has been refurbished with 

African hardwoods, handcrafted panelling and shining brass, creating a 

comfortable and charming ambience. 

Renaissance accommodates up to eight passengers in four suites, two 

of which can be configured as twins or doubles and the other two are 

double beds. The beautifully appointed lounge has comfortable seating 

whilst the cosy bar and library are stocked with favourites. On deck the 

jacuzzi is great for a dip and there are bicycles for your use.
