Here is our review in 2019 for a 2021 barge trip 

In 2023 we focusing in the 3-star category for eight guests, South Burgundy - Savoir Vivre ($5,000 includes 10% gratuity) with booking by Barge Ladies.

Subject: Barge trip and another idea.

Tom, We had a great lunch with my former study club member.

They ranted about the trip with the 8 supposed occupants.

He had four in his party and a couple from North Carolina The other couple canceled so there were only six on board. So we don't have to fill the barge ourselves. It might be interesting to meet new potential travelers.

They also used the barge ladies for booking their barge trip. They were very satisfied with how everything was handled. There is an initial down payment with the remainder paid at a later date. I would think about three months out.
