Departs: August 2, 2013  Priced: from £2,395

The Seine has been an important waterway since Roman times, with a place at the heart of the histories of French cities such as Paris, Rouen and Le Havre. With APT River Cruises eight-day ‘The Romantic Seine’ Platinum River Cruise, guests can experience the beauty of this gently flowing river in luxury, whilst taking the opportunity to explore some of the history along the way.  

The route is new for 2013 and highlights include the opportunities to see first-hand how the gardens at Giverny inspired Monet, to be moved by the atmosphere of Rouen where Joan of Arc was martyred, to travel The Cider Route stopping at a Calvados distillery, and to absorb the beauty of the riverside town of Les Andelys with its ruins at Chateau Gaillard. Starting and finishing in the heart of Paris, this river cruise takes in some of the most beautiful sights in France.

As with all APT Platinum Cruises, guests have the ‘Freedom of Choice’ promise, allowing them to tailor the cruise to suit them and enabling all passengers to indulge their own individual sightseeing interests, at no extra cost. Passengers will also find the on-board experience is just as rewarding as the off-shore activities.   

APT has been meeting the high standards of guests for 85 years and this is reflected in the attention to detail. All passengers on ‘The Romantic Seine’ Cruise can expect luxury accommodation, delicious meals, complimentary beverages, experienced tour staff and guides, sightseeing and excursions at no additional cost.
