Uncover the Roman history of Chalon-sur-Saône and delight in charming Tournus with its towering Romanesque abbey and historic apothecary shop. Visit French châteaux from Burgundy to Provence, taste your way through the French culinary capital of Lyon and visit the Papal Palace in Avignon. Treat your palate to Mâconnais, Beaujolais and Chalonnaise wines as you journey along the Rhône and Saône rivers. With a dedicated wine expert to guide you, you'll also have the opportunity to indulge in wine tastings and a specially curated food and wine pairing dinner on board – all included in the price of your Celebration of Wine River Cruise. Then, discover Geneva and Annecy, the "Pearl of the French Alps.".
