Wind through green mountain passes and explore historic cities in the heart of Old Europe.
Sailing from Arles to Lyon along the Rhône, this seven-night Women’s Only departure has been curated to offer both a sense of kinship and shared discovery, and time spent among people who see the world in the same way.
Aboard AmaKristina, winemaker Emmanuelle Bekkers, owner of McLaren Vale’s acclaimed Bekkers Winery with a winemaking career spanning thirty years across two continents, joins you throughout the voyage. Hosted tastings, wine conversations and experiences created exclusively for this sailing accompany the journey: a Lavender Gin Tasting at anchor, a Whispering Angel Rosé Sundeck Party on the river, and a Miraval Champagne breakfast on the approach to Lyon.
The itinerary moves through Provence’s most celebrated landscapes and wine regions, beneath the golden ramparts of Avignon, past the steep-terraced hillsides of Tournon and Tain-l’Hermitage, through the ancient streets of Vienne, with up to six guided excursion choices each day. Options include an excursion to the magnificent Château de Grignan (limited numbers), a heritage steam train journey through the Ardèche, Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine tastings and a Beaujolais wine excursion from Lyon.
