Houseboat vacations for groups
Sharing a boat with friends and discovering new places to see and new things to do each day is not only great fun, but it's affordable too! Simply go with the flow and enjoy each day as it comes; you'll be surprised by how much there is to see and do on and off the water. Choose boats with en-suite bathrooms and large sundecks, such as the Vision, Classique Star or the Horizon 5! If you can have a spare cabin, so much the better for storing bags and things you buy en route.
