Entire Travel Group has relaunched its barge cruising program with the release the 60-page 2026 Entire Barge Journeys brochure – the first dedicated edition since 2019 – featuring a collection of all-inclusive canal cruises across Europe.
Previously known to agents as Barge Travel Connection, the program was originally operated as a separate division of French Travel Connection. Drawing on the success of that original initiative, Entire Travel Group has leveraged long-standing relationships to re-contract trusted barge operators worldwide and bring the program to life under the new Entire Barge Journeys brand.
“This isn’t our first rodeo,” Entire Travel Group sales and marketing director, Greg McCallum, said. “We know how loved this style of travel is, and we’ve used our experience and connections to
relaunch the program with even more variety and flexibility for travellers.”
Relaunched program
Tailored for couples, solo travellers, small groups and private charters, the new collection features floating hotels accommodating between two and 22 guests. Each journey offers a relaxed and immersive way to explore France, Italy, the UK and beyond, with highlights including gourmet meals, personalised service and curated excursions to vineyards, villages, castles and UNESCO-listed sites.
Cruises are grouped into Charming, Premier and Luxe categories to suit a range of budgets and travel styles. Many barge operators also focus on sustainable practices, supporting local producers and minimising environmental impact through low-volume, slow-travel experiences.
Profiles on each barge journey include detailed itineraries, vessel descriptions, maps, highlights, and inclusions. Agents can also use dedicated tour codes to access departure dates and additional product information via Entire Travel Group’s website. Digital copies of the brochure are available now, with printed editions arriving shortly.
