France River Cruises

France is the country of beauty and romance - from the vineyard-covered hillsides of Burgundy, through the lavender-scented fields of charming Provence in southern France. Further north, Normandy's historic towns and beaches and pastoral landscapes dot the countryside, awaiting your arrival. In between are the cosmopolitan sights of Paris, with its broad boulevards, quaint cafes and spectacular museums. You can look forward to a cruise experience that is rich in legendary cuisine, and steeped in natural beauty and joie de vivre. Enchanting orchards, colorful pastures and crystal clear streams await you as you cruise through the Seine's scenic river valley. As you sail along this majestic waterway, you'll journey through the heart of Normandy-a region central to the history of France and much of Europe. Spend time strolling the exquisite gardens of Giverny, the lush landscape that inspired the artist Claude Monet. Walk the cobblestone streets of provincial Vernon, and enjoy a history excursion to the Normandy Beaches. And especially, revel in the splendor of the world's most romantic city, Paris, and experience the magic of this city of love. Your journey through France takes you past some of the most beautiful vineyards and vistas in the French countryside.
