Le Sax - Dinant Evasion
Did you know that? The Meuse River is intimately linked to the development of the city of Dinant, whose origins date back to the 6th century. It is therefore the ideal vantage point to understand the rich history of the region, or simply to relax and enjoy the beautiful landscape.
Treat yourself to an unforgettable cruise on the Meuse. It will be an undeniable success thanks to the Sax, the flagship of the Dinant Evasion fleet.
The Sax sails all year round between Givet and Liège, day and night. In the evening, the side lighting of the river banks adds to the charm of the cruise. During the day, the most remarkable natural sites of the Upper Meuse can be seen from a different angle.
