Mirage
Canal du Midi
Maximum Capacity: 6 Guests
Following the complete restoration of his first sailboat, captain Jonathan acquired substantial knowledge in navigation and crew management. Upon arriving in the Caribbean, he collaborated with charter companies on luxury sailboats, further enhancing his experience and becoming adept at passenger transportation. After being drawn to the unique world of barge cruising, Jonathan fulfilled his dream by purchasing the barge Mirage. Today, he leverages his vast cruising experiences welcoming guests into an atmosphere of comfort and well-being as Mirage gracefully cruises along the Canal du Midi between Carcassonne and Le Somail.
Cruising on board Mirage provides her guests with a journey of unforgettable moments amid the enchanting landscapes of southern France. This unique barge accommodates a select group of just six guests, making it an ideal choice for close friends, couples, or families seeking a unique getaway. As you drift along the tranquil waters, you’ll be mesmerized by the scenic views of vineyards, charming villages, and vibrant flora, all while enjoying the comforts and amenities that Mirage has to offer.
Mirage is crafted for an intimate cruising experience, encouraging guests to build deep connections and create lasting memories. The comfortable cabins and inviting common areas provide plenty of room for relaxation and togetherness, while the attentive crew ensures that every need is catered to. Tailored activities, ranging from visits to local markets to leisurely bike rides along the canal, enrich the experience, creating the perfect backdrop for meaningful conversations and shared adventures.
Culinary experiences aboard Mirage elevate your journey, featuring delicious local dishes made from fresh, regional ingredients, complemented by fine wines sourced from nearby vineyards. Dining is often a communal experience, sparking lively discussions and the formation of new friendships.
