Studio Boat is a small maritime experience operator based in La Vicomté-sur-Rance, Bretagne. Operating from Port du Lyvet aboard L’Aruba, Studio Boat runs guided photographic excursions and private proposal cruises along the Rance river and maritime Rance. The operator offers three signature trips: Excursion Photo en Rance Maritime, Excursion Photo Rance Fluviale, and Demande en mariage sur la Rance.
Each photography excursion includes an on-deck workshop or hands-on briefing to help participants master light, framing and composition while navigating coastal villages, fishing huts, bird colonies, and reflective river scenes. Routes vary by trip: the maritime excursion focuses on coastal landscapes and wildlife, while the fluvial excursion travels toward the medieval port of Dinan and emphasizes reflections and riverside architecture.
The proposal experience provides a private boat cruise from Port du Lyvet to Dinan with a professional photographer documenting the moment. It is presented as an intimate option for couples seeking a memorable, photographically captured engagement.
Studio Boat is listed on The Adventure Collective, where its experiences are described and bookable through the platform. The business emphasizes clear briefings, photo-focused itineraries, and departures from Port du Lyvet. Photographers and guests can expect guided time aboard L’Aruba dedicated to capturing scenes unique to the Rance. Studio Boat’s offerings are aimed at visitors who want guided photography opportunities or a private, camera-ready proposal on the Rance in Brittany.
