A short stay aboard Emma – a timeless escape
Friday – Sunday or Tuesday – Thursday
Day 1 – Welcome Aboard
Step aboard Emma, moored beneath the trees. You're greeted by your host and pilot with a glass of local bubbly and a warm introduction to your floating home. Settle into beautifully appointed cabins, explore the boat, take your first cruise into the sunset and toast the days ahead over a relaxed apéritif and shared dinner on deck.
Day 2 – Drift & Discover
Wake to sunlight through portholes and the smell of fresh coffee. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before Emma glides into motion, cruising peacefully along the canal. Help navigate through the locks, take a bike ride, or visit a local vineyard, monument or market. The day flows gently—sunshine, conversation, clinking glasses, and a joyful dinner under the stars.
Day 3 – Slow Goodbyes
The final morning is hushed and slow. A beautiful breakfast, a walk along the canal, or simply one last lie-in. Bags are packed, promises to return are made. You leave lighter, as if something deeply restful has settled in.
