This fantastic vacation combines two exciting river cruises and showcases the variety that France has to offer-from its scenery to its food and drink! Embark in Paris, heading northwest along the Seine into the picturesque Normandy region. Experience Vincent van Gogh's Auvers-sur-Oise, Claude Monet's stunning gardens at Giverny, Joan of Arc's Rouen, dramatic Chateau Gaillard at Les Andelys, and take an included excursion to the historic Normandy landing beaches or sample creamy camembert cheese and Calvados apple brandy-delicacies for which northern France is famous! Heading south, discover charming cities along the Saone and Rhone Rivers, including fascinating Beaune, Chalon-sur-Saone, Tournus, and Macon. Then, on to Lyon, France's gastronomic capital, as well as medieval Tournon, charming Viviers, Avignon, Arles, and the stunning Cote d'Azur.
