WINE & LAVENDER

River Cruises along Rhône & Saône

Two significant rivers shape the landscape of France in an impressive way: the Rhône and the Saône. While the Rhône rushes through wild valleys with its powerful current, the Saône flows gently and calmly through the picturesque countryside. For centuries, both waterways have played a vital role in trade and agriculture, while also offering numerous opportunities for recreation.

The banks of these rivers are lined with charming towns steeped in history, scenic vineyards that produce renowned wines, and historic landmarks that reflect the region’s rich cultural heritage. From the bustling streets of Lyon to the tranquil vineyards of Burgundy, countless facets of France unfold along the Rhône and Saône.
