Ultimate France & Italian Journey
A taste of immaculate Grand Cru Classe wine is the perfect start to your 49-day journey into the finest history, culture, scenery and experiences Europe has to offer. The ultimate European affair begins in Bordeaux, home to medieval villages, culinary delights and an incredible wine milieu. Spend a relaxing week cruising the Bordeaux region’s rivers and sampling its wares before moving on to the 6-star ultra-luxury of your very own Discovery Yacht, Scenic Eclipse, for an eight-day Mediterranean journey. Marvel at the spectacular beauty of Capri, walk the lemon-scented streets of Sorrento and immerse yourself in the glitter dome of Monte-Carlo as you discover the true meaning of ‘la dolce vita’. Next, you’ll journey to Lyon, the food capital of France, where the acclaimed Burgundy wine region combines top drops with gorgeous scenery. Iconic locations such as the Palais des Papes in Avignon come to life as you make your way to Paris. From the City of Light you will uncover King Richard the Lionheart’s ruined castle in Les Andelys, pay your respects at the Somme battlefields and Normandy beach, and wander through storybook villages sampling delicious French fare from cheese to calvados. Your journey concludes with a 15-day cruise along the Rhine River as your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship takes you from Basel in Switzerland to the Dutch capital Amsterdam. Along the way you’ll witness castles straight from the silver screen, enjoy an exceptional classical music concert in the World Heritage-listed Liebfrauenkirche of Trier and sip delicious wine with the magnificent Moselle Valley as your backdrop. You’ll do more than simply visit Europe – you’ll live it.
