Winner of the Thomas Cook Guide Book Award, this book is one of the leading descriptive guides to the astonishingly varied network of rivers and canals that penetrate almost every region of France. It is full of fascinating information on the historical sites, chateaux and scenic attractions of the many villages and towns that await discovery.
Cruising French Waterways first appeared in 1984 and has rapidly become the leading descriptive guide to the beautiful and historic canals and rivers that flow through France. Practical details of over 5,000 miles of waterways include: maps and guides for each waterway; waterway museums and sites of special interest to inland boating enthusiasts; maximum craft dimensions; bankside facilities, moorings and repair yards; fuel and water resources; shops and restaurants; and wine regions.
Beautifully illustrated by the author, this fully revised and updated fourth edition covers all the recently restored routes and explains requirements for licenses and personal qualifications.
