L’Hermitage. Tournon
Luxury river cruising offers the best of what seasoned travelers want:
stress-free, all-inclusive travel, dining, and daily guided excursions, all
onboard a 5-star boutique river ship, while slowly plying Europe’s beautiful
waterways.
On a very hot day in August, embarking on a European river cruise ship for an 8-day cruise on the Rhône River in Provence is a real pleasure. It is a distinct way of traveling to see Europe’s postcard-perfect destinations. From visiting Van Gogh’s sun-drenched Provençal town of Arles to Avignon and its UNESCO World Heritage sites, and onto the culinary capital of the world, Lyon, France.

What is European River
cruising? The correct term for this river vessel is Boutique River
Cruise Ship. The S.S. Catherine is an elegantly designed
boutique river ship offering luxury hotel-style accommodations, amenities,
food, and wine from the region. The interior greets you with a stunning two-story
lobby with a Murano glass chandelier and a life-size glass horse. River
cruising allows travelers to embark on a one-of-a-kind itinerary, designed to
see historic towns and landmarks just steps from the ship. And you arrive in
the heart of great European cities and towns with ease and anticipation.
