River trip aboard La Demoiselle

Hop on board La Demoiselle, a modern version of the traditional gabares, for a guided river cruise to discover the architectural and natural heritage along the Charente River.
Come aboard La Demoiselle, a modern version of the "gabares" of yesteryear, for a guided river trip to discover the architectural and natural heritage of the Charente river.
La Demoiselle offers 2-hour trips to discover the heritage nestling in the heart of the green Charente valley, between vineyards and limestone.

A contemporary reinterpretation of the gabares that once plied the Charente to transport goods, with its wooden cladding and flat bottom, the Demoiselle is a 69-passenger boat with a hybrid engine that is comfortable, quiet and low in CO2 emissions.
