RHÔNE RIVER ROAMING WITH RHÔNE DELTA & PONT DU GARD

Experience the best of southern France, known by the locals as le Midi, on this splendid 8-day luxury cruise along the Rhône. Stop in Vienne, tiny Viviers, Provençal Tarascon, Van Gogh’s beloved Arles, and other inviting riverside cities. Highlights include Old Town Lyon with its unexpected 4th-century traboules (hidden passageways); medieval Tarascon Castle; Avignon’s grand Palace of the Popes; and Châteauneuf-du-Pape for a wine tasting beyond compare! With Riverside, you choose your excursions daily, like an outing to Beaujolais, Aix-en-Provence, or the Camargue with its pink flamingos, a guided night walk in Viviers, or Roman ruins in Arles. For the active, kayaking and eBike tours are available. Scenic evening cruising through the beautiful Rhône Delta as you dine on delectable barbecue atop the Vista Deck is the pièce de résistance of your journey.
