Tango's décor is a delight in all its details. Large opening brass portholes throughout the vessel and opening skylights provide fresh circulating air and light. French art deco fixtures, provencal ivory linens, and rich teak wall panelling recreate an atmosphere of the 1930's French passenger liners. Up on deck, two terraces provide alfresco dining and a sundeck with hot tub. Here on the right is the large salon with soft yellow leather sofas, bar and dining room.

Comfortable cabins with ensuite bathrooms can be made up with twin or Queen beds. The Van Gogh cabin, pictured here, is one of the most spacious cabins on the Canal du Midi. All cabins on Tango can be made up with twin or queen beds.


One of the great attractions of Fandango and Tango are the hand made Provencal tiles throughout the vessels. Designed by Alain Vagh, of Salernes, the bathrooms are stunning as well as functional.

The original Captain's cabin is exquisitely fitted with mahogany panelling and cabinets. A separate bedroom with ensuite bath and dressing room has its own entrance onto the main deck. Only available for charters of eight.
