Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany

These Hotels Offer Over-the-Top Private Yacht Charters in Indonesia, Turks & Caicos, and Beyond

"An elegant river barge through the Champagne region of France. Foregoing shiny yachts on open seas for classic barges on scenic French waterways, Belmond’s fleet of luxury péniches will expand in May 2023 with the inaugural voyage of Coquelicot in Champagne. Slow, sophisticated travel is the objective; each sailing is a week long to allow guests the time to slip into the gentle rhythm of river cruising. As they do, they’ll breathe in the scents of local herbs and wildflowers that perfume the large top deck social area and lounge in artfully curated living spaces outfitted in the pastel shades of sparkling wine. A partnership with Maison Ruinart, the original Champagne house, uncorks exclusive tastings and lunches both onboard and in the vineyard. “We provide an exclusive home that moves while enjoying the most amazing meals with the best produce sourced from local markets and a dedicated team who is on hand for any requests," says Gary Franklin, vice president of Belmond Trains and Cruises. "This has never been more relevant or appealing to guests as it is today.”"
