You won't find the most beautiful shots of a cruise during a trip. In the album and in the heart. Explore the breathtaking landscapes of southern France, charming towns and historic sites. The further south you go, the more dazzling and relaxed Provence will dazzle you, with its picturesque light, joie de vivre and the natural paradise of the Camargue. Charming Avignon, with its imposing papal palace and picturesque old town, and Lyon - known for its delicious cuisine and rich history - are just some of the highlights of the cruise. A cruise through this diverse landscape along the Rhone is probably the most relaxing way to enjoy southern France.
All cruises are international, meaning that all materials such as the ship's newspaper, menus, radio announcements, etc. are in English. Likewise, excursions are available with English-speaking guides, and the on-board staff speaks English (usually German as well).
Every wonderful cruise on the Rhone starts in Lyon - and for good reason: Lyon is a beautiful, modern city with an impressive old town and top-notch cuisine. Lyon owes its great culinary reputation in part to award-winning French chef Paul Bocuse, who chose it as the headquarters of his empire of brasseries, restaurants and cafés. The city is renowned for its simple yet high-quality cuisine based on regional produce, which has given the city its nickname la ville de gueule ('the city of taste').
Provence - savoir-vivre means 'to know how to live'. And living well is something the people of Provence know very well. Surrounded by towering olive trees, lilac lavender fields and vineyards that produce the finest red wines, it is a place to relax and enjoy life. In the summer, you can watch some of the local farmers harvesting their fruit - and perhaps put your own hand to work. You might even be rewarded with a glass of local wine or a dish of bouillabaisse. Other regional specialities include white nougat from Montélimar, candied fruit from Apt and the famous truffles from the Vaucluse mountains. Provence is a place where pleasure comes first.
Avignon - you've probably heard of the famous bridge in the song "Sur le pont d'Avignon". This bridge actually exists, or at least part of it: wars and floods have reduced the original 22 arches of the bridge to 4. In 1660, after another flood, the bridge was abandoned. Apart from the bridge, it is probably the palaces, the wines and the culture that will excite you most in Avignon. The Papal Palace is monumentally impressive, especially in the evening when it is illuminated by a light show.

Picturesque Tournon lies on the bank of the Rhône – you will be able to admire it from the river. The Rhône region’s mild climate has allowed Le Jardin d’Eden park in Tournon to really flourish. It is a real oasis of relaxation. For nature lovers, it’s also the perfect place for discovering new plants and trees, and is a must-see attraction. The town, which is near Lyon, also has a lot to offer for culture fans and history buffs. | |||
| 3 | Avignon | 06:00 | - | |

Arles in southern France is the Provençal city par excellence. This sun-drenched city of terracotta-tiled rooftops occupies a broad bend in the River Rhône. Many of its monuments have named UNESCO World Heritage Sites. What’s more, Arles was once a great Roman port. As if all that weren’t reason enough to visit, the city was also home to Vincent van Gogh for a while. Did you know that? | |||

| 6 | Viviers | 07:00 | 17:00 | |
|
This small medieval city in the Ardèche region is absolutely unmissable. It boasts numerous sights and is dotted with well-preserved monuments from bygone ages. Here in the Rhône region, the typical French attitude to life is also very apparent. Watch France’s history come alive in Viviers, and enjoy the diverse range of attractions that the city has to offer. | |||
| 7 | Vienne | 08:00 | 08:30 | |
|
The multifaceted Vienne was once an important Roman city and, thanks to its location on the Rhône, the gateway to the heart of France. A number of ancient buildings from this period can still be seen today. For example, there is a Roman theatre, which is still used for events such as the summer jazz festival. There is also a very well preserved Roman temple in Vienne, surrounded by an impressive portico. | |||
