About This Cruise

The cruise begins in Paris, the city of love and gastronomy. From buttery croissants and café au lait in the morning to refined pastries and haute cuisine, Paris offers culinary delights at every corner.

In Les Andelys, a picturesque town dominated by Château Gaillard, guests enjoy regional specialties such as Normandy cheeses and apple cider.

Rouen, the city of a hundred spires, offers bustling markets with Camembert, Livarot, fresh fish, and apple tarts paired with a glass of Calvados.

The journey continues to Caudebec, where travelers can savor mussels, hearty meat dishes, and crisp local wines.

In Le Havre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, maritime flavors take center stage: oysters, scallops, and fish soup highlight the region’s connection to the sea.

Vernon brings travelers closer to Monet’s Giverny, where markets brim with honey, cider, and freshly baked bread.

Back in Paris, the journey ends with a gourmet dinner on the Seine, perhaps aboard a Bateau Mouche under the shimmering lights of the Eiffel Tower. A cruise celebrating art, history, and French culinary excellence.

Itinerary

France

Paris

To this day, Paris remains perhaps the most sought-after destination for travelers from all over the world. And quite rightly so, since no other city in the world so perfectly embodies love, seduction, art, culture, and cuisine. Paris is the city of life’s finer things. It all starts with the beauty of the French capital itself, which is best experienced from the observation decks of the Eiffel Tower or the hill of Montmartre. The city on the Seine offers so many beautiful views that it’s hard to decide which direction to point your camera first. But even up close, the city’s landmarks are hard to beat in terms of beauty. The ornate Notre-Dame Cathedral; the imposing Arc de Triomphe; the sprawling Louvre; the magnificent Jardin des Tuileries; the opulent Opéra Garnier; and the impressive Place de la Concorde are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the sights you can marvel at in Paris.

France

Les Andelys

Les Andelys is a municipality in France located in the Normandy region. The town is divided into a larger and a smaller part (Le Petit Andely and Le Grand Andely). The smaller part lies directly on the Seine. The region’s northern character is also reflected in the town’s architecture. This is evident, for example, in the 13th-century Notre-Dame Cathedral. The Tolysland amusement park is popular with visitors of all ages.

France

Rouen

The city of Rouen is the historic capital of Normandy and is best known for Joan of Arc. In the museum "Joan of Arc" you can find an insight into her life and her tragic death in Rouen. Also worth seeing are the botanical garden, the cathedral "Notre Dame" and the monastery "Saint-Georges de Boscherville". Very popular is also a visit to the clock tower in the charming downtown area of the town.

France

Caudebec-en-Caux

The idyllically situated village of Caudebec-en-Caux boasts several historically significant buildings, such as the 12th-century House of the Knights Templar, and is characterized by a very charming atmosphere. The local church, with its highly artistic stained-glass windows, is also a worthwhile destination; it impresses with its extraordinary architecture and is a must-see during any visit to Caudebec. Just outside town, a massive aircraft monument commemorates the Latham 47 flying boat.

France

Le Havre

With more than 170,000 residents, Le Havre is the most vibrant city in Normandy. Located directly on the English Channel, this metropolis lies in northwestern France. Thanks to the work of architect Auguste Perret, the city center was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its unique architecture. In the heart of the city stands St. Joseph’s Church, an imposing structure featuring several thousand glass blocks. Le Havre’s city hall, with its tower rising more than 70 meters high, is also impressive. No city hall square in all of Europe is larger than the one in this French city.

France

Vernon

Vernon lies halfway between Paris and Rouen. Countless half-timbered houses characterize the townscape. The most famous one can be seen during a stroll across the Pont Clémenceau: the Old Mill, which gracefully perches atop the remains of a medieval bridge. Claude Monet was so captivated by the view of Vernon that he captured it on canvas. But that’s not all: for more than 40 years, the artist lived nearby in a house surrounded by magnificent gardens. What once inspired Monet to create world-famous works is now a paradise for flower lovers and those seeking relaxation.
