The hotel yacht Miró sails the beautiful bike and boat tour through from Maastricht to the city of lights Paris. In only 15 days you will sail through 3 countries. The Netherlands, Belgium and France will charm you all in their own way, while the MS Miró always accompanies you and offers you a comfortable home, without daily suitcase packing. You will cycle or hike comfortably and without luggage until you meet the ship again at the agreed place. Of course, you can also skip individual cycling stages and in return enjoy a wonderful boat ride on board with a book, or simply relax in a comfortable chair on deck. Of course, there is always enough time for a walk, museum visit or a nice city stroll.
Route
Tour profile/ level 1-2
Day 1: Maastricht – Liège, boat trip
Individual arrival in Maastricht and embarkation at 12:00. Afterwards there will be a champagne reception and the MS Miro will start towards Liège. On the way the ship passes the highest lock of the Meuse (ships are lifted here about 18m!) In Liège the first dinner and the possibility of a city walk awaits you.
Day 2: Liège – Huy – Namur, approx. 42 km
After a breakfast ride to Neuville today’s bike tour starts to the count city Namur - capital of Wallonia. The route takes you via Huy, whose impressive cathedral and citadel invite you to linger. Once in Namur, a hike to the citadel is on the agenda before there is still time to explore the beautiful city center on your own.
Day 3+4: Namur – Floreffe – Rosalies, approx. 45 km
In the morning the Miro drives to the old abbey of Floreffe where you start your bike tour to Rosalies. The old mining and steel industry has left its mark in the area and takes you back to another time. In the afternoon a boat trip takes you to Charleroi before returning to Rosalies.
Day 5: Rosalies – Strépy – Mons, approx. 45 km
During breakfast the boat will take you to Strépy Thieu to the new ship lift of the Canal du Centre. You can visit the engine room and the museum of this enormous construction before starting your bike tour to the Canal Historique du Centre. The three old ship lifts on site have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today’s tour ends in Mons, where you will have time to visit the historic old town.
Day 6: Mons – Antoing, approx. 40 km
Today’s tour takes you through idyllic landscapes and friendly villages along the Canal du Centre to Antoing. At each lock you have the possibility to board the boat and thus shorten the bike tour.
Day 7: Antoing – Valenciennes, approx. 41 km
Today you cross the French border and cycle in the direction of Valencienne through picturesque villages and natural areas, which are mainly used for agriculture and forestry.
Day 8: Valenciennes – Bouchain
In the morning you have time to visit the old town of Valenciennes before you cycle to Bouchain. There the Miro lies today directly at the wall of the castle.
Day 9: Bouchain – Péronne
Today’s tour first takes you to Noyon, where you will visit the castle museum. Through winding villages and beautiful landscapes you will then continue to the Souterrain du De Ruyaulcourt, where the ship is waiting for you. At the ship you will experience the passage of the 4350m long tunnels under the plate of Quentin. Enjoy the surroundings of the Canal du Nord, which is typically passed through at a leisurely pace in a convoy of ships.
Day 10: Noyon – St. Jean-aux-Boix – Compiègne, approx. 45 km
After breakfast, you will visit the old town of Noyon, whose landmarks and monuments have remained intact despite being destroyed in the world wars. The following bike tour leads via the "fairy tale castle" Pierefonds to the royal city of Compiègne.
Day 11: Compiègne – Creil, approx. 40 km
Today’s bike tour runs along the river Oise, through wooded sections and picturesque villages to Creil. In the sociable little provincial town of Creil you can already see the urban influences of the metropolis Paris, which you will get closer to day by day.
Day 12: Creil – Baumont sur Oise – Conflance
Today you cycle in the footsteps of the painter Vincent van Gogh, who spent his last days in Auver sur Oise and was also buried there. Many themes from his paintings can be found in this region. In the afternoon, you will travel by boat along the picturesque rivers Oise and Seine to Conflance, the center of French inland navigation.
Day 13: Conflance – Bougival – Paris
Cycling is possible today, but not necessary. You can take in the magnificent scenery of the Seine from the ship and relax all around. As the skyline of Paris approaches, the ship cruises leisurely along the river. Once in Paris, the ship makes a tour of the Paris Seine and its ancient tunnels before the Miro finally docks at the famous Port de la Vilette.
Day 14: Paris
The city of Paris is just waiting for you to explore. Discover the secrets of the city on your own or join a city tour with your captain. In the evening, a dinner at the Music Café with the crew and captain awaits you.
Day 15: Paris
Disembarkation after breakfast and individual departure.
