2025 European Canal Barge Cruises

Abercrombie & Kent – Glide Along Europe’s Intimate Waterways on a Relaxing Canal Cruise

Just released, our 2025 European Canal Barge Cruises collection reveals a side of Europe most travellers never see. With itineraries spanning the waterways of France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Scotland, England and Holland, these leisurely paced cruises explore centuries-old vineyards, family-run farms, historic cathedrals and exclusive châteaux secluded off the beaten path.

You can charter an entire vessel for your exclusive use or secure a cabin the way you would book a room in a country inn, sharing the vessel’s amenities, sightseeing excursions and meals with your fellow guests — it’s all up to you.
