MS Loire Princess

The design of this ship is exclusive to Croisi Europe since it is the first French ship to sail on the Loire, the last “wild river” in France. Built in 2015 in Saint-Nazaire, its specificity lies in its side paddle wheels and shallow-draft. It is 80 metres long, 11 meters wide, has 2 passengers decks and carries upto 96 passengers in 48 staterooms. The noble burgundy and pearly colours mingle with copper elements, which give a prestigious character to the interior decoration. A “royal” atmosphere to discover the Loire châteaux from the water. A nod to the famous “inexplosibles” that once crisscrossed the Loire: a large fireplace is located in the middle of the lounge.
