French Hotel Barge NAPOLÉON
Cruising the Central & Southern Regions of France
(Vallée du Rhone - Saône - Provence)
The Napoléon cruises the Rhône between Arles and Tain l’Hermitage/Tournon; sun-drenched landscapes that inspired the great canvases of Cézanne and Van Gogh.
A region full of sophisticated architecture dating back to the Roman civilization and ruins of fortifications, arenas and aqueducts which continue to amaze modern engineers. The endless vistas of tiled roofs, lavender fields and olive groves are synonymous with Provence.
Excursions are arranged to the wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the story book towns of Orange, Avignon, Arles, St Rémy, birthplace of Nostradamus and the ancient Roman and Greek ruins of Pont-du-Gard and Glanum.
