This bike and barge tour starts in the heart of Paris and offers a two-week bike and boat trip in two (or three!) countries. History is abundant on this tour. Several historical towns, museums, castles, and a varied landscape are part of the tour. The ship follows the river Seine downstream for a while. From Conflans it goes upstream the Oise river. After Compiegne the ship follows a canal with many locks towards the Belgian border. The river Escaut (Schelde) is the next waterway, until Gent. The last stretch, to Bruges, is in a canal again
