Click here to see our recent blog post on the Apres Tout. The barge is being dressed up!
What do you get when you cross a barge agent's vision of a dream barge with two of the industry's most renowned owner/operators? Easy: the Apres Tout. This luxury barge, formerly named Le Premier and always a Frontiers favorite, has been purchased (and is receiving upgrades and overall sprucing up) by highly regarded 20-year industry veterans Rory and Caroline Macrae. Together they have been the masterminds behind a prestigious fleet of five barges for the past 10 years. Floating into the 2012 season as the Apres Tout on the most scenic section of the picturesque Burgundy Canal, the revitalized 127-foot-long beauty not only boasts a roomy ride with a Jacuzzi and an enviable deck, but also amenities that redefine luxury. In its three spacious and identical staterooms, guests will enjoy central air and heating, emperor-size beds (can be split to two twins), a walk-in shower, vanity, heated towel rack, and a selection of l'Occitane bath products. The Apres Tout's sleek salon boasts oak floors, skylights, a Bose surround sound system, satellite TV with DVD player, and an iPod dock. The Apres Tout will accept individual cabin bookings or charters for groups up to six, and is absolutely perfect for three couples traveling together or a family with active kids. This luxury barge and its owner operators are the plus-perfect hosts for the canal barge cruise experience you're hoping for.
Meeting Point: Sunday afternoons at one central location in Paris.
