Your ports
of call
A picturesque
historic little town, Moret-sur-Loing awaits you on the banks
of the Loing. Alfred Sisley, a master of impressionist
painting lived here, his house is opened to public.
In Briare,
the canal crosses the Loire. Here Gustav Eiffel build
the longest canal bridge in the World. Cross this 667m-long work of
art; this will be one of the high points of you cruise.
If you
are a Wine lover, a stopover in Sancerre is a must. This small
town with narrow winding streets is famous for its goat's cheese and
suave wines. Stop off in one of the cellars for a tasting session.
While
passing trough Nevers go and admire the architecture of the
Duke's Palace and also the 12th-century cathedral. Visit
the porcelain workshop and admire the exquisite items on display.
Perched
high on a step escarpment Decize seems to look down on you.
The highlight of this town, the Castle of the Counts of Nevers,
is waiting to reveal its secrets to you.
