The 8-passenger, ultradeluxe Amaryllis cruises through some of the most picturesque waterways in France, exploring the Burgundy countryside in exceptional style. Visit ancient châteaux, follow the wine trail through Beaune, or luxuriate on deck in the heated swimming pool as you drift past premier cru vines.

The air conditioned interior of this luxurious péniche-hôtel is traditionally French, with contemporary touches set off by Louis XVI and XV antiques. She has been decorated by some of the most respected names in France and Italy. Settle into the comfortable lounge with a drink from the open bar, linger over dishes cooked by the cordon bleu chef or simply watch the magical French countryside unfold all around. If you are feeling energetic, cycle along the tow path!
