Oise, Seine and Paris Canals cruise

September 20-25, 2022

IWI member Backwaters Cruising Ltd is offering to IWI members an exclusive and spectacular 5-day, 5-night cruise on board the barge Natalia in the Île-de-France region of France, including cruising through Paris in both directions on the last day. The cruise starts at Port-Cergy on the river Oise and follows the itinerary shown on this map. The cruise will cover 110 km of waterways and 19 locks, while accommodation will be 2 nights in Port Cergy and 3 nights in Paris-La Villette in the Ibis hotel overlooking the junction of the three Paris canals. Except for the transfer with luggage between the two hotels (dropping us off at Reuil-Malmaison to rejoin the barge), all transfers will be by public transport (RER express metro and tramway).

The tour will be led by the CEO of Backwaters Cruising, Lynn Woods, accompanied by canal experts Bernard Le Sueur and IWI’s past president David Edwards-May. Details and reservation here.
