Hotel Barging Cruises on the European Waterways with Paradise Connections

April... such a wonderful time of the year... Springtime and the beginning of barging season!

Dutch Tulip Cruises: still a few spaces left. See below for details!

If you can't get a group together to charter a whole barge, you can still go barging by booking a cabin and sharing the cruise with others... Give us your dates & we'll send you a selection of barges. No reason you should miss out on a super vacation due to other people :)

Come and explore the European waterways aboard a quality, luxury, all inclusive, crewed boutique hotel barge.

Visit our website to view barges in France, England, Scotland, Ireland, Holland / Belgium, Italy, Germany / Luxembourg
