Featured prominently in Tauck’s 2013 Bridges collection is
its new river cruise itinerary, “Bon Voyage: France Family River Cruise.” The
10-day itinerary (from $4,690 per person, cruise only) begins with an included
two-night hotel stay with guided sightseeing in Paris that highlights the Eiffel
Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre and a special dinner at Fouquet’s.
Guests then travel on the high-speed TGV train to Lyon, where they’ll board
Tauck’s MS Swiss Emerald (above) for a seven-night cruise on the Rhone.
Tauck is including a number of fun and engaging activities
for families throughout the itinerary, including a scavenger hunt in Paris’
Louvre, a lesson in “petanque” (a ball game similar to bocce) in Viviers, a
hayride in the Camargue, bicycling in Avignon, and a hands-on French culinary
experience in Tournon. Three departures of “Bon Voyage: France Family River
Cruise,” will be offered in 2013, on July 11, 25 and August 1.
In all, for 2013 Tauck will operate departures of 17 Bridges
itineraries highlighting destinations in Europe, North America, Latin America
and Africa. Each Bridges trip is fully inclusive, with all accommodations,
ground transportation, entertainment, sightseeing, gratuities, most meals,
airport transfers, luggage handling and much more built into the
price.
Returning Tauck Bridges travellers can also benefit from the
company’s Gift of Time offer, which allows them to extend their 2013 journey
with a complimentary hotel night. Guests can choose to redeem their free night
at either the beginning or end of their journey, at the hotel normally
featured on the first or last night of their itinerary. To qualify for the Gift
of Time, returning guests must book no later than December 28. Other restrictions may apply.
