A romantic stopover in Paris, at the start or end of a Seine cruise, can make a trip even more memorable. However, there’s much to win your heart on the river itself. After your ship glides beneath the city’s 37 bridges, seductive Normandy awaits. Here, you’ll voyage between apple orchards, verdant green countryside and white chalk cliffs. See the ethereal ruins of Jumièges
Abbey, get up close to the Bayeux Tapestry, roam atmospheric Rouen, and explore Impressionist artist Claude Monet’s tranquil gardens at Giverny. A Seine cruise is tempting at any time of year, even in the heat of July and August which offer a great view of the Paris Plages beaches.
The Pont Royal is the thirdoldest bridge on the Seine.
