Belmond Lilas barge Review

Review of Belmond Lilas barge

Belmond Lilas barge was launched in the summer of 2017. Cruise itineraries take guests along France’s rivers and canals through the Champagne and Alsace regions. The 6-night itinerary features unique food and wine-themed events, including private visits to family-owned breweries, vineyards, and châteaux. Cruising with Belmond in France offers stylish travel, a break from everyday life, and an opportunity to savor each moment while sailing through the scenic French countryside.

On the Canal de la Marne au Rhin route (through the Alsace region), Belmond Lilas passes pine forests and castle ruins perched on remote hilltops between Strasbourg and Arzviller. Along the way, guests can explore small towns and charming villages, including Saverne and Lutzelbourg, before reaching Strasbourg—Alsace’s culinary capital and the highlight of the itinerary.

The new Lilas barge is inspired by Biophilia, a design approach that brings the natural world into interior spaces. The vessel’s decor reflects the hues of the lilac flower it’s named after. The open deck evokes a floating garden, complete with a swimming pool surrounded by potted plants and handcrafted furniture. Accommodating just eight passengers in four cabins, the barge provides an intimate cruising experience with personalized service.
