About this offer
Known for its apples and dairy, we’ll voyage through Normandy along the Seine, tasting everything this delicious region has to offer. Sample the sweetest apple products at a local farm and the perfect snacks - crêpes in Honfleur, Norman cider and cheese at Bizy Castle, and mouthwatering macarons in Paris – and the fun doesn't stop when we leave dry land! Our on-board restaurant serves a fully French menu, and you can enjoy a tarte tatin cooking demonstration and French brunch as we sail, as well as a Champagne reception looking out onto Caudebec.
