Explore the historic sites of France’s capital city - visit the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs Elysees and enjoy cruising alongside the city’s great landmarks marvellously illuminated at night.
As we cruise from Paris through the Seine valley to the Normandy Coast enjoy the charms of Paris, delightful little villages along the river, proud abbeys that lend the Seine a spiritual dimension and the attractions of the main cities of Normandy. As we sail to Vernon you have the chance to visit the Claude Monet foundation at Giverny.
We offer a range of interesting shore excursions including a guided tour of Historic Rouen, with a visit to the old marketplace where Joan of Arc was burned, and Honfleur, a superb old fishing port city situated at the mouth of the Seine, which has barely changed since the 17th century.
Or follow the ‘route des Abbayes’ with the ruins of the most beautiful French abbeys and romantic landscapes that captured the imagination of 19th century poets and artists. You may also choose to visit the chateau of Vascoeuil where art, history and nature come together in perfect harmony.
