Yacht Description

“A 98ft Hakvoort from 2003.”

WONDERLAND is an impeccably presented barge, designed to the highest standards and based in Paris. This barge has managed to do something rather unusual; strike a good balance between high standards of luxury and a feeling of homeliness. Ideal for a family holiday, a couple or a small group of friends, WONDERLAND offers guests a chance to explore France through its canals and rivers in style and at their own pace with the help of three marvellous crew.

WONDERLAND has three cabins available for up to 5 guests:

Spacious Master Cabin with King size bed and large en suite that has a bath as well as a shower.
Twin cabin with two standard sized single beds.
Studio cabin that acts as an office with a single bed that can be converted to a double on request.
Each cabin has its own private en suite bathroom with a shower, lavatory and sink. The living area has a large space for sitting and separate room for dining. Outside is ample and well furnished. You can spend time admiring the view from the extensive deck seating or the deck Jacuzzi.

Wonderland will be based in Paris from 9 June 2024 until 5 August 2024.
This creates a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for those attending the Paris 2024 Olympics to stay onboard or for those who simply want to explore Paris in a very different and original way. You will be able to cruise the waterways in between events and soak up the atmosphere.

For those looking to explore further afield, WONDERLAND will be available to cruise both the Champagne and Normandy regions. You will need to choose a week-long (or longer if you wish) route.

Normandy is renowned for its picturesque landscapes, charming coastal towns, and rich cultural heritage. From the historic beaches of the D-Day landings to the iconic Mont Saint-Michel, Normandy offers visitors a blend of history, natural beauty, and culinary delights. And Champagne is more than just a mecca for wine enthusiasts. Beyond the vineyards, the region's charming towns and villages offer a glimpse into France's rural heritage, with cobblestone streets, historic churches, and lively markets beckoning travellers to explore. The Champagne region, like its most famous eponymous product, invites visitors to savour life's most joyous moments.

While aboard, the crew of three will look after you. They have worked together for years, and have hosted charters around the globe on many different types of yacht. Captain Paul is exceptionally knowledgeable and experienced but also great to spend time with. Similarly, hostess Lexy is the epitome of kindness and generosity. Paul and Lexy, partners in life, make a great team and have worked together for many years. They are able to strike a balance between being attentive, and stepping back to allow guests some privacy. Stewardess Tani will be joining them for the summer season in France.
