 L'Impressionniste Barge
The 12 passenger L`Impressionniste was refurbished in the winter of 2005-6 and guests are accommodated in six suites each with private bathroom. The barge interior is light and airy with attractive prints, fabrics and wall coverings reflecting the art movement after which she is named. The spacious saloon has panoramic windows allowing wonderful views of the gently gliding countryside to be savoured at all times - even when inside the barge. L’Impressionniste’s cruise route offers plenty of opportunity to cycle and walk into nearby villages. The recent addition of the single cabin or ‘chart room’ for a 13th passenger enables groups of 12 travelling with their Tour Guide to be accommodated. L’Impressioniste can cruise in tandem with her sister ship Anjodi (taking 8 guests) on this cruise route, thus accommodating charter groups of up to 20 passengers. 6 WEEK TRANS EUROPE CRUISE DEPARTS 09TH NOVEMBER 2008— ask us for details!
