I highly recommend Le Boat for your next holiday with friends or family. We had an absolutely amazing time on our second barge trip (the first was in September 2022), and we would definitely book with them again. The experience was unforgettable, and everything was well-organized from start to finish. Can't wait for our next adventure with Le Boat!
The most incredible base and staff! We were so warmly welcomed and everyone was so friendly and patient. The base has a very relaxed atmosphere and the people made it an amazing experience! Thank you very much Jarnac base for your genuine care and hospitality
A wonderful 10 days of cruising up and down the R. Charente between Angouleme and Saintes, with 13 friends on 2 boats. The Le Boat staff at Jarnac were very helpful, providing friendly and very useful service with boat introductions, destination tips, and extra linen.This is our second hire with Le Boat in France, and I recommend them highly.
Everything was arranged nicely by the local crew and they have been very friendly.However, the boat (Cirrus) itself was very old, had a big crash damage on the front and water leaked onto our bed every night. This was not, what I have expected.
The people at Le boat Jarnac were excellent especially dealing with a very difficult situation. We had booked our 5th barging trip, a year ago on a vision 3 boat. 4 days before we were commencing the trip we were notified the boat was damaged and there was no other large boat available. We had 5 people booked for the boat and not everyone knew each other. Le boat could only offer us a much smaller boat, 3 cabins and 2 bathrooms which could be awkward. You can imagine our disappointment as we had flown from Australia, friends from the USA and New Zealand so we could not cancel it. When we explained the situation, Le boat then offered us 2 boats with the 2nd one being free. However after much consideration we felt it was challenging managing with 5 people and 2 boats so settled for one small boat, 3 cabins and 2 bathrooms. Not ideal but we managed. The team at Jarnac, were so helpful and did everything they could to ease our disappointment. They are an absolute credit to the organisation. Thank you Romeo and Amelie and to everyone trying to help rescue a potential disaster of a holiday. We still had a great time.
