 The Amaryllis The Amaryllis is the most luxurious barge whose interior displays an uncompromising attention to detail.
Each state room has been meticulously decorated in a traditional style with a mixture of contemporary and antique Louis XVI and XV furniture, complimented by occasional tables from Li Puma of Florence. The specially designed window casings incorporate huge windows that panoramically frame the passing countryside.
On the top deck guests can relax on sun loungers or luxuriate in the heated swimming pool.
Amaryllis cruises some of the most picturesque waterways in France, including the River Saône and the River Rhône and the Canal du Centre.
Throughout the Burgundy region excursions are arranged to visit ancient châteaux and sample many of the famous wines of the region: Beaune, Dijon, St Jean de Losne, Chalon-sur-Saône and Dole are just some of the towns and villages visited.
