On this episode, We set a course for unabashed indulgence on a tranquil cruise of the rivers and canals of France's Burgundy region.
Aboard our century-old barge-turned-hotel, we're treated to a relaxing pace and natural beauty - us plenty of gourmet meals and fine wine.
Stops for a hike or bike ride help us work up our next appetite, and a chateau lord welcomes us to taste the vintages of the famed Cote d'Or.
