Iconic France on Scenic Diamond

Experience a feast for your eyes, soul and appetite across two iconic regions of France. Cruising on our 5-star Scenic Space-Ships, this a decadent journey through France’s gastronomic heart, rich with Roman heritage, which is paired perfectly with the acclaimed Bordeaux wine region.
Bordeaux is famous for the incredible wines produced throughout its fertile countryside. As you cruise along the Gironde, Dordogne and Garonne rivers, cycle through picturebook landscapes, learn the winemaking process and sample delicious fare prepared with French finesse. Then travel to the south of France, where tastes, sights and smells unravel as you cruise the magical Saône and Rhône rivers. Explore Lyon, the gastronomic heart of France, and the legendary Burgundy wine region. Enjoy an exclusive cooking class at a three Michelin star restaurant, savour bold notes at acclaimed vineyards, forage for truffles with a farmer and their hound and enjoy a sunset aperitif on the terrace of a castle. Sensorial delights await.
