Cruise past vibrant fields of yellow rapeseed or red poppies, fields of wheat and pretty lock houses with window boxes of colourful geraniums. Tall poplar trees line your route providing shade and tranquillity. St. Florentin has a wonderful market and good restaurants, while the ancient city of Tonnere in the heart of Burgundy, is famous for its ‘Fosse Dionne’ – one of the deepest natural water sources in France. Nearby, the splendid château at Tanlay is definitely worth visiting. Cruising for two weeks you can travel as far as Montbard, enjoying the many beautiful châteaux en route as well as superb wines at Epineuil and nearby Chablis (coach transfer from Tonnerre).

Migennes

Base manager Dominique Fourre welcomes you to Migennes. Situated at the confluence of the Yonne, the Armencon and the Serein, the history of Migennes has been tied to the canal for centuries. Since ancient times, it has been at the heart of the crossroads of the commercial routes through Burgundy and has been an important town in the religious landscape of France..
