Cruise overview

This comprehensive exploration of France includes an overnight in Rouen (Paris), and visits the Normandy, Brittany, and Aquitaine regions of France. Treat your palate to fine wines in Bordeaux and cider in Brittany. Taste regional specialties like Cancale oysters and Breton galettes. And feast your eyes on timeless scenery: the abbey on Mont St. Michel, St. Malo’s pink sandstone cliffs, Monet’s garden in Giverny where water lilies still have the power to inspire. Trace history through the ages from the rustic stone megaliths at Carnac to the opulence of Versailles to silent D-Day beaches. See iconic sights like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. And write your own adventures as you hike the unspoiled wild Breton coast.
