Viking
Burgundy sails along France’s scenic Saône
and Rhône Rivers past some of the most beautiful
vineyards and vistas in the French countryside. During
your 8-day journey, explore the famed region of Burgundy
and the lavender fields of Provence. Visit Gallo-Roman
ruins in both Vienne and Arles; walk the cobbled streets
of Arles to see how it inspired Vincent van Gogh. And visit
the historic Papal Palace in Avignon, “City of the
Popes.” Learn about the region’s time-honored
winemaking traditions, sample Burgundy varietals and try
the famed Provençal cuisine in Lyon. C’est
magnifique
