You ll visit churches and chateaus from the 1300s, many of which took 300 to 400 years to build. Mention France, and one thinks of food and wine. Our cruising area is located in one of the great food baskets of the world. Of course, there s those delectable French pastries. Sample one or several for breakfast aboard, along with breads, croissants, fresh fruit, tea and coffee.
Local products are always on the table.
Snack on French bread, a variety of superb French wines and cheeses as the countryside whizzes by at six kilometers per hour. De Gaulle said, It s difficult to govern a nation with 365 different cheeses. Today, there will be more than 365. Lunch will be at a cafe in a small French town. We ll cruise to another village for dinner at an Auberge or other French restaurant.
