Back in May this year we welcomed passengers back on the saraphina for the THIRD time. We offered them yet a new route and new discoveries. It’s the biggest compliment we can get that they enjoyed their previous cruises so much to return again and again. That’s not all, on their way out of the door they booked a catered stay @maison_saraphina for 2025. Looking forward to seeing you then. #hotelbarge #bargecruise #hotelbargesaraphina #hotelbargecruise #marseillan #sète #arles #arlestourisme #avignon

Celebrating 8 years of marriage and 8 years since we launched our Saraphina as a hotel barge. Since then we have welcomed 100’s of lovely passengers. We are lucky enough to do a job that we love and be able to do it together. 4 years ago opened @maison_saraphina to guests to enjoy a taster of countryside living. Thank you Finn for supporting me in my chicken obsession and just a word of warning, I see alpacas 🦙 in our future. Here’s to the next many many years to come. ❤️🩷 #hotelbarge #bargecruise #hotelbargesaraphina #hotelbargecruise #narbonne #béziers #bargelife #canaldumidi #maisonsaraphina #southoffrance #husbandandwifeteam

We love being featured in blogs by The Barge Lady. Take a moment to read and discover what a trip on @hotelbargesaraphina is all about from a passengers perspective. "After our champagne welcome aboard the Saraphina, we began a weeklong cruise on the Canal Du Midi that turned into a voyage of a lifetime. I truly cannot imagine a better hotel barge experience. With only four guests onboard the crew is able to create a magical trip, leaving nothing out. Captain Finn, Chef Emily, and Host Andras were each magnificent. We felt like royalty at the beginning of the trip and friends by the end. Host Andras was always there to make sure we had our drink glasses full and our mouths eating nibbles of the most wonderful variety. From her simple galley kitchen, Chef Emily provided meals that were frankly some of the best we’ve eaten in years. Captain Finn was always willing to not only answer questions about the barge and the history of the canal but any other topic one would like to discuss, a true renaissance man. We cannot leave out Rex, our grand Tour Guide in describing our wonderful time on the Saraphina. From the fortress of Carcassonne to the Abbey of Fontroide, Rex provided marvelous insight into the history, culture, and people of the region. What did we enjoy most?…EVERYTHING!!! The food, the wine, the scenery, the private concert, the land tours, just everything. Let us stay there forever!" — Devon and Courtney F. #hotelbarge #hotelbargesaraphina #bargecruise #canaldumidi @bargeladycruises @maison_saraphina https://www.bargeladycruises.com/blog/stepaboardthesaraphina/
