Barging in Burgundy

Burgundy, like much of France, is laced with canals just made for spending lazy afternoons gliding by pastoral scenes. From small captain-it-yourself boats to full-service barges complete with captain and crew, cruising a canal is a great option for a relaxing trip through one of France's most popular regions.
