Uniworld River Cruise – Burhundy and Provence River Cruise 2010
Burgundy and Provence River Cruise
Sail through the heart of Burgundy and Provence on a magical journey where sumptuous cuisine, fine wine, world-class art, nature, and history provide a treat for all of the senses. Here you’ll discover that joie de vivre is not just a phrase, but a wonderful way of life!
You’ll sail past quaint hilltop cities and fashionable, lively towns, as well as lush vineyards, fields of flowers, and sun-drenched vistas made famous by great painters such as Van Gogh and Cézanne. Visit regions filled with UNESCO World Heritage Sites—Arles, immortalized by Van Gogh’s paintings; the well-preserved Medieval city of Avignon, with its spectacular Palace of the Popes; and Lyon, center of Gallo-Roman history and the gastronomic capital of France.
Add in Uniworld’s special Epicurean Adventurer Program, which highlights the culinary diversity of these lovely areas with a Côtes du Rhône winetasting while in Tournon, and a special wine and food pairing dinner onboard.
