After being met by
our driver in Paris you will taken to the barge moored in the heart of
Paris for a wonderful champagne welcome. We have the afternoon to relax
and cruise past Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower. We will moor that
night in the Latin Quarter where you will enjoy your first gourmet
dinner on board.
Monday, Day 2
Scenic
cruise out of Paris to Samois sur Seine. After lunch we will take an
excursion to Chateau of Fontainebleau. To walk through Fontainebleau is
to walk through the history of France. Every royal family has added its
own architectural signature. Go on the charming village of Moret, where
the Impressionist Sisley painted, and then rejoin the barge for an
evening cruise to Montereau.
Tuesday, Day 3
A
morning cruise on the upper part of the River Seine to Monterereau,
where the smaller river, the Yonne, meets us. After lunch we will take
a drive out to the Medieval town of Provins, also called the "City of
Roses". Here we will watch the magnificent show of the birds of prey.
Return to the barge moored in a beautiful country setting.
Wednesday, Day 4
A
pleasant cruise along the beautiful River Yonne to the town of Sens,
the oldest town in France. Visit the first great gothic cathedral, a
magnificent building that dominates the main square. Time to shop,
visit the museum or stroll around the town.
Thursday, Day 5
Winding
up the Yonne, we reach the pretty riverside town of Joigny. The
beautiful narrow cobblestone streets stretching their way up to
wonderful churches perched on top of the town takes you back to another
era. In the afternoon we will take a drive out to Chablis. We select
one of the small family operations for an intimate tour of their
vineyards and cellar.
Friday, Day 6
Cruise
along the upper reaches of the Yonne to Auxerre, the most beautiful of
all river towns whose skyline is punctuated by church spires and its
streets lined with timbered 16th century houses. Time for shopping,
visiting the old port or the 15th century clock tower. Farewell
celebration on board enjoying your last elegant gourmet dinner.
Saturday, Day 7
After your final wonderful breakfast you will either be transported to
the airport or your hotel in Paris.
