No Experience - No Problem
You do not need a licence or experience to hire a boat on the French canals. You
will be given sufficient initial tuition to set you on your way, and together with
our written advice which you will receive in advance of your holiday, you will be
on your way. You do not need a licence or experience to hire a boat on the French canals.
You will be given sufficient initial tuition to set you on your way, and together
with our written advice which you will receive in advance of your holiday, you will
be on your way within just a few hours of arriving at your hire base. The type of
boat you hire is very important. In our opinion, some boats may be too large or
too heavy for a first time or inexperienced hirer, and could turn your dream holiday
into a daily ordeal worrying about mooring and locks etc. We will guide you through
the selection process and also give advice on the different French regions so that
you choose the correct area to suit your requirements. Cruising the Canal du Midi
in the south is a totally different experience to the Canal du Nivernais in Burgundy.
With boats sleeping from 2-12, most with en-suite facilities and spacious and tasteful
interiors, we’re sure you will find a boat to suit your needs. All are expertly
equipped, rigorously maintained for comfort and safety, and so easy to handle. Our
prices our listed as per boat per week – making a relaxing holiday on the waterways
cheaper than you might think – and a perfect way of spending quality time with family
and friends without breaking the bank. Book a low cost flight to nearby airports
and you could be at the helm of your boat and soaking up the sunshine in no time
at all. Alternatively, many clients drive through France and make this part of their
holiday
