Normandy & Gems of the Seine with Paris & the French Riviera

Be immersed in the unique culture and traditions of Normandy, learn about its fascinating history, and admire the spectacular scenery on the only 5-star 11-day cruise along this stretch of river. Explore the sombre legacy of WWI at the Somme Battlefield, visit the home of the impressionist art movement as you feel inspired by the house and garden of Monet and uncover the legendary tale of French heroine Joan of Arc. Explore the grand château that was once home to Napoleon and walk in the footsteps of King Richard the Lionheart at Château Gillard. Balance out the history with meanders through storybook villages, sampling delicious French fare from cheese to calvados. Two extensions show you even more of France. Enjoy an additional three-day stay in Paris to go deeper into the City of Light and take a four-day tour of the glamorous French Riviera, from the dazzling streets of Monte Carlo to the cobbled lanes of Saint-Paul de Vence. Luxury accommodation, included transfers and a Scenic Tour Director make for seamless travel.
