As we glide along the Seine, we’ll explore three magnificent French châteaux – masterpieces of architecture and elegance, dressed in its Christmas finery. Each has its own yuletide twist, from the homely atmosphere of “Little Norman Versailles” of Bizy Castle to the storybook wonderland of Chantilly, and the breathtakingly festive Vaux-le-Vicomte, every visit offers a sensory delight of seasonal splendour. We’ll also enjoy a private organ recital in Vernon Cathedral.
Onboard, enjoy luxurious dining, mulled wine on the sun deck, and a seasonal ambience. Relax as you sail past wintry landscapes, letting the magic of the season and the charm of France surround you.
