Boaters and beginners can enjoy the travel deal as no boating license or experience is required
Smiths Falls, ON (November 15, 2021) - Le Boat, leaders in European and Canadian private houseboating adventures, have announced their Black Friday deals for tourists looking to explore Europe or the UNESCO World Heritage Rideau Canal in 2022. This year’s Black Friday deals will run from November 25 to December 1 and customers can save up to 25 percent on French and Rideau Canal boat rentals for 2022.
“Le Boat is an ideal option for those looking to vacation next summer,” said Lisa Mclean, North American marketing manager for Le Boat. “Being on your private cruiser is like being on a luxury floating cottage and allows you to travel in your social bubble, sleep on board, cook and BBQ onboard, set your schedule, plan your route and control your environment, determine where you stop and whom you interact with.”
Discover the beauty of France and its countryside from the country's canals and romantic rivers and discover the many historical sites along the way, stop at any time to relax, indulge in fine French wines and delicious food. Boaters can choose from nine different cruising regions in France, each with its own distinct scenery, gastronomy, culture and charm and explore them at their own pace, from the privacy of their boat.
The Rideau Canal is a specular waterway of private islands, sandy beaches, protected wetlands, peppered with small artisan villages along the way. The 125 miles / 202 km of continuous waterway stretches from Kingston to Ottawa and is a vast network of 27 historical lock stations with 47 locks that were built in 1832 and operated today by Parks Canada.
“Le Boat makes it as easy for people to be able to explore Ontario’s great outdoors and have an amazing getaway,” said Mclean. “No boat license or previous boating experience is required. Our experienced base team teaches everything you need to know to captain your own boat and navigate safely through the lock system. If you can drive a car, you can drive one of our boats. Plus, we provide you with suggested itineraries to help plan your unique adventure with friends and family.
