Rhone and Saone Rivers

To see discounted cruises that visit or depart from this port, use the Find a Bargain box on the left.

Tour the romantic south of France as you meander the Saone and Rhone through the heart of Burgundy and Provence. You'll delight in a region that has inspired some of the most famous works of art and offers wine and cuisine that is among the best in the world. Experience French history, culture and scenery in historic cities like Lyon, Macon, Avignon and Vienne. Lyon, which sits at the confluence of the two rivers, flaunts its reputation as a gastronomic capital of France, and visitors can enjoy the cuisine at the many bouchons (bistros) around town. The city is rich in architecture, each district representing a different slice of Lyonnaise history, beginning with a Roman amphitheatre dating back two millennia on Fourviere Hill. Along the banks of the Saone, the cobbled streets and Renaissance buildings of Old Lyon -- where the Cathedral St. Jean is located -- take the visitor back to the 15th and 16th centuries. Some cruises combine itineraries on these rivers with voyages along the Seine River in northern France, touring cosmopolitan Paris, Versailles and Honfleur, the cradle of Impressionism.
