Tourexpi
These
itineraries feature modern shallow-draft vessels with hybrid propulsion
systems, specially designed for narrow and demanding routes.
A
true highlight is the “Hiking Cruise from Saarlouis to Strasbourg”, which
passes through the wild and romantic valleys of the Saar and Moselle rivers,
past steep vineyards and dramatic loops. Guided hikes along elevated rocky
paths offer breathtaking views of the river landscape. This five-day journey
aboard the MS Leonardo da Vinci is available from €658 per person in a double
outside cabin.
On
the Seine, the MS Botticelli sails from Paris to the picturesque port of
Honfleur, stopping at La Roche-Guyon, Rouen, and Caudebec-en-Caux. The route
winds through narrow loops, small islands, and monastery harbours – places
inaccessible to larger ships. Highlights include excursions to the white chalk
cliffs of Étretat and Monet’s garden in Giverny. The seven-day cruise is
available from €1,188 per person.
A
truly unique adventure awaits on the MS Loire Princesse, a paddlewheel ship
with jet propulsion that sails the Loire – Europe’s last untamed river. The
six-day journey begins in Nantes and continues via St. Nazaire to
Chalonnes-sur-Loire. Historical locks, winegrowing villages, and excursions to
castles such as Angers and Azay-le-Rideau make this cruise a rare and exclusive
experience, starting at €1,808 per person.
For
connoisseurs, the week-long voyage aboard the MS Cyrano de Bergerac explores
the riverscapes of the Garonne, Gironde, and Dordogne. Departing from Bordeaux,
the route includes stops in Royan, Libourne, and Cadillac. The itinerary
combines culinary highlights with visits to UNESCO World Heritage Sites and
prestigious vineyards. Prices start at €1,558 per person in a double outside
cabin.
