Why We Love Cruising Burgundy & Provence: A river cruise through Burgundy and Provence is a feast for the senses – think sun-drenched vineyards, rolling lavender fields, and charming towns steeped in history. As you sail along the Rhône and Saône, you’ll discover a region bursting with culture, flavour and beauty. Highlights include the stunning Roman amphitheatre in Arles, the colourful markets of Avignon, and the impressive Palais des Papes. Wine lovers will be in heaven exploring the renowned vineyards of Burgundy, while foodies can indulge in Provençal cuisine and regional specialities at every stop. Whether you're wandering the cobbled streets of medieval Viviers or admiring the views from Lyon – France’s culinary capital – there’s something magical around every bend in the river.
Your cruise line: Riviera Travel offers a refined yet relaxed way to experience river cruising, with beautifully appointed ships that feel more like floating boutique hotels. Onboard, you’ll find light, airy cabins with picture windows or French balconies, elegant lounges perfect for a quiet drink, and spacious sun decks to soak up the scenery. The onboard experience is all about comfort and quality, with superb dining included and a welcoming, friendly atmosphere throughout. Riviera also includes thoughtful extras like guided excursions in every port, led by expert local guides – no hidden costs or surprises. Their ships are designed for grown-up getaways, with no over-the-top frills – just good food, great company, and exceptional service. It’s a brilliant way to see the heart of France without ever having to unpack twice.
