Cruise Gascony aboard Hotel Barge Rosa

Rosa is a first-class, 8 passenger hotel barge that cruises in Gascony between Agen and Montauban from April and August. She’s an old Dutch “Clipper” barge that was built early in the last century to carry cargoes on the offshore waterways of Holland. Now, as a charming hotel barge, she navigates the much calmer canals of southwest France.
