Le Boat’s 2019 brochure is out. There is plenty to celebrate in Le Boat’s fifty years’ of operation from continuing the new cruising destination of Canada on the UNESCO listed Rideau Canal through to a €1.5 million investment in the St Jean-de-Losne base at the heart the Franche-Comté cruising ground in Burgundy. In Canada, Le Boat lovers can see the Canadian fleet growing with more Horizon boats on their way – including our brand new five-cabin Horizon 5 which sleeps up to 12 people. Canal du Midi itineraries – the Australian favourite – are still there in the 2019 brochure.

Australians are starting to discover how to get off the beaten track in Europe along the enchanting waterways which carry you away from the main tourist belt and immerse you in local culture and customs.

Jamie Scott, Le Boat Sales Manager said, “No boating licence or experience is required to enjoy a cruise on a spacious self-drive Le boat cruiser.  Stopping when and where you want provides a different, more independent experience in Europe, the type of holiday that many Aussies love.”

Le Boat’s brochure for 2019 offers a great early bird offer for all 2019 holidays booked by 31st August. Up to 20 percent off with a low deposit of $750. The brochure showcases all 18 cruising regions in Europe, as well as the new cruising destination for 2018, The Rideau Canal in Ontario, Canada – complete with maps, highlights and suggested routes.

In 2019 Le Boat is delighted to celebrate our 50th birthday. We have been boating along French waters since the late 60s, and are proud to have come a long way from humble beginnings.

Now the biggest self-drive boating operator in Europe, Le Boat has gone from strength to strength. In 2011, we were proud to launch our hugely successful Vision range of boats. Packed full of modern features, Le Boat’s Vision fleet continues to turn-heads on the waterways of Europe. Not ones to rest on our laurels, Le Boat followed up this huge success with the state-of-the-art Horizon fleet in 2016. Truly the next generation of river cruisers, the Horizon fleet has re-defined river boats in terms of comfort and ease of use. Perhaps the most exciting recent development has been our new cruising ground on the Rideau Canal in Canada. We never stand still and can’t wait to introduce you to new innovations and more fabulous destinations in the coming years – watch this space.
