In this new episode of Rick Steves' Europe, we set a course on a tranquil cruise of the rivers and canals of France's Burgundy region. Aboard a century-old barge-turned-hotel, we're treated to a relaxing pace and natural beauty — plus plenty of gourmet meals and fine wine. Stops for a hike or bike ride help us work up our next appetite, and a château lord welcomes us to taste the vintages of the famed Côte d'Or.

Spud barge, sectional barge, deck barge, pile driving barge

We launch a new spud barge. Spuds (steel extensions) are driven vertically into the riverbed as a means to resist currents. Spud barges are used in river construction and provide stable, elevated platforms for work.
