River Seine Experience & Antwerp

8 nights from £1,664pp departing Saturday 19th Oct 2024

Known as the diamond capital of the world, Antwerp will certainly dazzle you. You'll be able to see much of the city when sailing down the River Scheldt - the location of which made Antwerp prosperous today. Sailing to France first brings you to Rouen, Normandy’s vibrant capital. A cruise down the River Seine, which has been the subject of impressionist art including Monet’s ‘Bathers at La Grènouillere,’ is sure to inspire you. Our last port of call will be to Honfleur, a historic harbour with plenty of character.

Honfleur, the most picturesque of the Côte Fleurie's seaside towns, is a time-burnished place with a surplus of half-timber houses and cobbled streets that are lined with a stunning selection of stylish boutiques. Much of its Renaissance architecture remains intact—especially around the 17th-century Vieux Bassin harbor, where the water is fronted on one side by two-story stone houses with low, sloping roofs and on the other by tall slate-topped houses with wooden facades. Maritime expeditions (including some of the first voyages to Canada) departed from here; later, Impressionists were inspired to capture it on canvas. But the town as a whole has become increasingly crowded since the Pont de Normandie opened in 1995. Providing a direct link with Upper Normandy, the world's sixth-largest cable-stayed bridge is supported by two concrete pylons taller than the Eiffel Tower and designed to resist winds of 257 kph (160 mph).
