Rhone River Cruise
with Don and Lorna Blake with contributions from Paul Steinbok

In late May 2023, we embarked on an eight-day cruise on the Rhone River capped off by three nights in Paris. The river cruise began in the walled city of Avignon followed by visits to Arles, Viviers, Tournon and Vienne before terminating in Lyon where we stayed for two days before taking the high speed train to Paris. Walking tours led by knowledgeable local guides were available at every port. Viviers and Vienne were unfamiliar to us, but given the richness of French history, proved to be well worth the stop. At Tournon we enjoyed a trip on a narrow gauge railway along the Doux River gorge.  Optional tours to Les Baux, Chateauneuf de Pape and the Camargue region will also be described.
