Cruises the Waterways of France

How to describe France when it is already so dear to so many hearts, and often considered as the most beautiful country in the world? In fact, there are few countries with such a diversity of cultures, landscapes, art and history.


CroisiEurope offers you a wonderful holiday in France, with many cruises on all the major French waterways. Each cruise lets discover in depth cultural regions with their traditions, allowing you to experience a rewarding and privileged journey. It is also an opportunity to discover cities in a new way. How about a stay in Paris, your hotel anchored in front of the Eiffel Tower? Or to see Bordeaux from the Gironde, when your cruise ship leaves the shore?

Going up the Seine, the Rhone, the Rhine or even the Loire, plunge deep into history, visiting areas that have been inspiring generations for centuries. Go to Lyon and learn all about its Roman roots, or visit Honfleur and stroll through Normandy, with its history. Discover the hidden treasures of Corsica aboard La Belle des Océans.


During the holiday season, we offer you a magical journey to the heart of the most beautiful capitals of Christmas. Discover cities transformed for the occasion and enjoy shows and illuminations shining with a thousand lights. Also discover some of the most unmissable Christmas markets in Europe on a cruise.


And for the New Year, our crews will be pleased to welcome you aboard our boats moored on the quays of the most beautiful European cities. A sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner accompanied by the best wines will be reserved for you, preceding a most festive evening.
