What to Expect

Join us for a 2-hour guided canal boat trip from Port de la Hisse to Port of Dinan and back, offering a non-stop journey through the Plaine de Taden and the Asile des Pêcheurs. This tour unfolds the history and beauty of the Canal d’Ille-et-Rance, showcasing its lush landscapes. Our boat is comfortable and well-equipped, ensuring a pleasant ride for all guests.

During the cruise, indulge in carefully prepared aperitif boards crafted by your Captain. These boards feature a selection of local charcuterie, cheeses, bread, and butter, all complemented by characterful wines from small, environmentally conscious producers. This culinary experience is a delightful way to savor the local flavors of the region.

This unique experience on the Rance is perfect for sharing memorable moments with friends, family, or colleagues. Combining scenic beauty with history and fine cuisine, it offers a remarkable way to explore this picturesque part of France.
