Creator's Key Takeaways

I found it to be a lot of food, relaxing and fun times with new friends.

Overall, this was a fantastic experience that I look forward to trying again.

The intimate nature. Um you get a family unit on board. You make fast friends with all your fellow barge cruisers.

The most fascinating part of the voyage for maritime and engineering fans probably would be the transit of the strepio boat lift.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Bring a converter for US devices due to European power plugs.
✓Consider the cabin storage strategy if traveling with a partner, as hangers are limited.
✓Charter the vessel for a group of family and friends for the best experience.

This was my first barge cruise. So, what is a barge cruise like? I found it to be a lot of food, relaxing and fun times with new friends. Check out what I did on my first barge cruise on MS Raymonde from CroisiEurope River Cruises. The barge carries up to 22 people, and we cruised on pretty canals and rivers in Belgium.
