Canal boat holidays in Italy/France.

Posted by Jack Hammers (477 days ago)

My wife and I are considering a canal boat holiday with our toddler in June this year, either in Italy or France.

We've done some research but something that has struck us is how daggy most of the boats look. The newer fibreglass specimens look a bit naf. (Maybe it's just the photos).

The 'narrowboats' look great, but they are in the minority and seem to lack seating at the back where you drive from. We want to be able to sit together as we trundle down the canals.

Anyone with canal boat holiday experience out there? Do you have any tips or suggestions as to what to look for?

Thanks.
