Our ship, your hotel Imagine a floating hotel following you and no lugging of luggage: that is exactly what Bike & Barge is all about! While you are calmly pedalling along, your ship is on its way to the meeting point. In the pleasant atmosphere on board you can have a chat, go through the day with the others, and enjoy the meals prepared specially for cyclists. You have your own cabin with private shower and toilet. In the evenings you can enjoy a drink in the salon or admire the setting sun on deck.
