Available through Abercrombie & Kent, this spacious, twin-deck vessel accommodates just a handful of guests, delivering a boutique hotel experience afloat. Its contemporary interiors, expansive staterooms, and beautifully designed lounges create an atmosphere of refined comfort, complemented by attentive, personalized service and regional cuisine prepared by an onboard chef.
As Enchanté glides through sun-soaked vineyards, medieval villages, and charming lock systems, travelers enjoy curated excursions that highlight the area’s culture, gastronomy, and heritage. Whether savoring meals alfresco on the sundeck, unwinding in the spa pool, or discovering the artistry and traditions of the Languedoc region with expert guides, every moment is crafted to showcase the best of Canal du Midi cruising—delivered with A&K’s hallmark quality and care.
