Overview

MS Madeleine

MS Madeleine is a striking two-deck barge that has been traveling along the Marne-Rhine Canal for a number of years. A small barge that has the capacity for just 22 passengers, MS Madeleine travels to destinations within Alsace, including

Strasbourg and Selestat, to bring you all that European waterways has to offer.

Keeping in line with CroisiEurope's standards, you will receive the very best of service aboard MS Madeleine. The fact that CroisiEurope specializes in river cruises means that the experience of a river cruise will not be matched by any other company. From panoramic views to the most expert of river tour guides, there will be no shortage of enjoyment aboard MS Madeleine.

Ship Highlights

River Cruise Experience

An advantage of taking a river cruise on MS Madeleine is that you will be able to experience much more than you would on a land tour of Europe. You will be able to visit smaller and more quaint ports than you could on an ocean cruise. You will also be able to visit multiple ports in one day and take advantage of much later departure times from port cities. You can take all the time you want throughout the day to explore every European town along the river. This allows ample time to get the full experience of each city along your itinerary. A river vessel that travels overnights translates to more port time for every guest, meaning that you can truly immerse yourself in a world of culture and explore everything that the European waterways has to offer while sailing aboard MS Madeleine. The best part is that you get to travel while you sleep!

When you’re not busy immersing yourself in the rich culture of the Marne-Rhine Canal regions by exploring the land or trying your hands at local activities and customs onshore, you can hang out in the lounge-bar or relax atop the sun deck, which has comfortable loungers and sunshades, on the barbecue deck or in the Jacuzzi. There is also onboard Wi-Fi for your convenience.

Authentic French Cuisine

MS Madeleine’s immersion in local culture does not end with the river. CroisiEurope is known for having some of the best authentic French cuisine aboard all of their river vessels and MS Madeleine is no different. The expert chefs are skillfully trained in French cuisine and work hard every day to bring you the finest food prepared with the freshest local ingredients. You will experience classic French dishes, matched perfectly with hand-picked bottles of red and white wines, that will leave you coming back for more. Each menu is carefully selected and designed by Alain Bohn, CroisiEurope's head chef who was recently nominated as a member of the Maitres Cuisiniers de France.

Cultural Highlights

These in-depth experiences are included as an essential part of discovering more about the places through which you cruise, and each activity is planned specifically to illuminate each itinerary. Some cultural highlights that you can experience while aboard MS Madeleine may include:

Tasting delicious bread and other bakery items at Maison Du Pain d’Alsace (otherwise known as the House of Bread)
Visiting the incredible Christmas Market in Selestat
Exploring the charming city of Obernai
Touring the secret wine cellars of Hospices de Strasbourg and taste local wines
Taking a guided tour of the beautiful Alsatian capital

Itineraries may vary by ship, are subject to change, and this list may not be exhaustive or all-inclusive. Check with each CroisiEurope ship for more information on individual itineraries and their most recent versions.
