Crown Blue Line is the original British canal charter company in Europe. It started out chartering in France nearly 35 years ago and today offers a fleet of thousands of boats in eight countries (including the United States) from 28 to 49 feet. Our 42-foot Classique S, a spacious, high-quality, British-built river cruiser with four double cabins and three heads, costs between $2,390 and $3,850 per week depending on season, plus fuel, security deposit, and insurance. (Peak period is from mid-July through August.) Crown Blue Line’s staff is fluent in at least two languages, often three.
