No guide or audio-guide in French... too bad... Otherwise a lovely cruise and festival of lights... Even if a little long at the end... certainly due to the fact that we didn't have a guide...

The cruise was very good, although since it was raining, visibility was reduced, but I highly recommend the experience.

Nice in evening through the canal, could for me dwell a little longer at the light pardae exhibits, we sat backwards so was sometimes a little difficult viewing, especially for my elderly mother, but otherwise nice audio tour! And nice and warm in the boat and clean.

The festival is magnificent, and the French commentaries on the town's history are interesting. The inhabitants decorate their houses beautifully, adding to the artistic spectacle. The works of light are not of equal quality, but some are truly moving. The big drawback is that the whole thing lacks organization: you can end up outside the boat without wanting to, and it's not warm in the evening! The works are not commented in French, and the headphones are of poor quality.
