Proudly French, but with many distinctive Germanic influences, Alsace is France’s smallest province.
Allowing you to cruise on the rivers of three countries through France, Luxembourg and Germany, this boating route is also home to the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
Half-timbered houses in well preserved medieval towns mingle with the vineyards along the waterways. Marked paths wind through the countryside providing excellent trails for walking and cycling.
*** Please note - UK customers cruising the waterways of Germany require an ICC certificate. This can be obtained through the RYA. If you already hold an RYA dayskipper licence, the ICC certificate will be issued by the RYA without further training.
