Whether you are looking for a canal cruise through the wine regions of France, the springtime tulips of Holland or the verdant green countryside of England, BV Associates can provide a barge holiday to suit your fancy. If you prefer larger floating hotels, perhaps a riverboat cruise through Germany’s Black Forest or the heartland of America,  BV Associates can provide booking on a number of pleasurable floating holidays.

Representing three barge companies that offer canal cruises in France, England, Ireland and Holland, BV’s offerings range from the intimacy and luxury of sharing your cruise with only six to 12 other travelers to a moderately priced holiday among 25-50 fellow passengers. Specially selected scheduled departures also include a variety of theme cruises. Private charters are available for as few as six guests and special theme cruises can be designed.

BV also offers river cruises in both Europe and America. Imagine floating through Germany in luxury and gliding by fairytale castles along the Rhine, Danube and Moselle rivers.  

Our own shores provide a fascinating array of riverboat possibilities. Visit the soul of America as you transverse the waterways of the early explorers. From Nashville to St. Louis, Memphis to New Orleans, along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, experience America from a different, slower perspective. Celebrate the holidays with special theme cruises that highlight such events as Mardi Gras or Christmas.
