River trip aboard La Demoiselle

Hop on board La Demoiselle, a modern version of the traditional gabares, for a guided river cruise to discover the architectural and natural heritage along the Charente River.
IMPORTANT: La Demoiselle is protected from the sun but not from the rain. We therefore invite you to bring what you need in case of bad weather.

La Demoiselle offers 2-hour walks to discover the heritage nestled in the green Charente valley, between vineyards and limestone.
A contemporary reinterpretation of the gabares that once plied the Charente to transport goods, with its wooden cladding and flat bottom, the Demoiselle is a boat with a capacity of 69 passengers.
Come and discover the Demoiselle cruise in a whole new way on Wednesday evenings in July and August, with festive entertainment! (see the schedule of events at the bottom of the page).

Non-alcoholic soft drinks sold on board; payment accepted in cash, credit cards and checks.

Dogs are accepted on board (except for defense dogs) and must be kept on a leash.
Smoking is prohibited on the boat and its pontoon.

Summer entertainment program / Wednesdays at the end of the day - July and August 2025

We wish you a pleasant cruise aboard La Demoiselle!
