“Life is too short to drink bad wine and eat poor food”

According to UNESCO, the French food culture is important for bringing people together to enjoy the art of good eating and drinking to create togetherness, and a balance between humans and the products of nature’. Evergreen Cruises & Tours has created a dedicated Flavours of France cruise along the Rhône and Saône rivers to celebrate the very essence of French food culture.

The 8 Day Flavours of Burgundy and Provence cruise, starting from $3,645pp*, sails through the heart of Europe’s famous food wine-producing regions, and features a line-up of tastings, hosted dinners and guided vineyard visits. With Evergreen’s Earlybird offers, savings of up to $2,500 per couple* are available for bookings made by 31 August, 2019.

Food experiences to relish on this itinerary include:

  • Discovering the famous products of the Burgundy region in Tournon – truffles
  • A visit to a gourmet chocolate maker Valrhona in Tain l’Hermitage
  • Taste regional produce in markets of Avignon
  • Tour the wine cellars of Châteauneuf-du-Pape
  • Visit Lyon, the gastronomic capital of France

Romantic settings, historic villages and stunning scenery, French flavours and rolling vineyards are yours to discover on Evergreen’s new river cruise featuring the Saône and Rhône Rivers.
