Alouette carries four passengers in perhaps the most luxurious barge in France.

Refurbished in 2008 to the highest standards, the barge has two beautifully furnished cabins in double or twin configuration, with en-suite shower.

The sun deck with loungers, and sheltering umbrellas, is perfect for soaking up the scenery during the day, whilst the large picture windows in the lounge offer perfect views from inside. The spacious lounge/dining area has a library, writing desk, stereo and games.

Delicious meals are created by your cordon bleu chef using the freshest of local ingredients. Alouette operates on a private hire basis only, on the Canal du Midi between Carcassonne and Béziers or vice versa.
