Distinguished French river-cruise operator CroisiEurope has combined two of its most
popular routes to create a brand new 10-day cruise along the Rhine and Rhone
rivers. The new and original itinerary, which launches next year, will see
passengers board in Amsterdam, before
setting off along a scenic and culturally enriching route that passes through
some of the continent’s most treasured towns and sites in Holland, Germany and
France.
While travelling the length of the celebrated Rhone
before transferring onto the Rhine – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – passengers
will enjoy a range of optional and
complementary excursions to some of Europe’s most historical sites. From a
guided tour of northern Europe’s most ancient Cathedral in Aachen to a circuit of Lyon’s Old Town and
Traboules passageways, to a train journey through the Medieval town of
Tournon, in southern France, there is plenty to cater for all
interests.
The cruise starts in Amsterdam and visits Xanten,
Dusseldorf, Cologne, Konigswinter, Koblenz, Mainz, Worms, Strasbourg, Chalon Sur
Saone, Lyon, Tournon and Arles before finishing in Avignon. The 2014 departure dates are April 22, May 17, June 27 and September 28. Cruise-only prices start at €1,303 per
person (approximately £1,100) based on two people sharing an
air-conditioned twin main deck cabin with a fully equipped en suite bathroom,
including all meals and drinks on board (excluding Champagne and wines on the
wine list), a wide range of entertainment, a welcome cocktail, coach
transfer, a museum visit, Gala dinner entertainment, insurance and port
taxes.
