An aerial view of Arles

Arles, France Mon 10 Aug 2026

An aerial view of Arles

Explore a sun-drenched Provençal town today with an allure all its own. Known for its remarkable Roman ruins, Arles so inspired Van Gogh that he painted some 200 paintings there. Arles has existed since the sixth century BC, when the ancient Greeks founded it and named it Theline. It was here that the Romans built their first bridge across the Rhône River, creating a vital overland route between Italy and Spain.

Featured Excursion | Arles Walking Tour

Join a local expert for a stroll through this district, where medieval houses crowd in among the ancient structures and the city gates date to the 13th century.

A panoramic view of Avignon from the Rhone River

Avignon, France Tue 11 Aug 2026

A panoramic view of Avignon from the Rhone River

The walled city of Avignon is one of the most fascinating towns in southern France, with a host of historic gems to explore—including the fortress residence of rebellious popes who broke from Rome and once lived and ruled here. You’ll see the Palace of the Popes and much more today, or have the chance to visit a 2,000-year-old Roman aqueduct.

A special Captain’s Welcome Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you this evening.

Choose between: Avignon Walking Tour with Palace of the Popes OR Pont du Gard Roman Aqueduct Visit

The bridge over the Rhone River in Viviers

Viviers, France Wed 12 Aug 2026

The bridge over the Rhone River in Viviers

An enchanting village where time seems to have stopped centuries ago, Viviers has a long and storied past that goes back more than 1,600 years—and a splendid architectural heritage to match. At one time, Viviers was divided along religious lines—the clergy lived in the upper part of the town, the laity in the lower part. Your exploration of the town will take you through both parts, as you begin at the crest and make your way to the riverbank.

Featured Excursion | Village Day: Ardèches

A local expert will show you the fountain squares in the Old Town, which combines Roman and medieval influences, and cobblestone lanes so narrow you can stand in the middle and touch the medieval houses on either side.

A panoramic view of Tournon

Tournon, France Thu 13 Aug 2026

A panoramic view of Tournon

If you love fine wine, you’ll love the twin villages of Tournon and Tain-l’Hermitage. Tournon may be a small town, but stirring events took place here: A castle was raised on the hilltop in the 10th century to protect the region, and new fortifications were added over the centuries, including two “new” towers built to defend against Protestant attacks in the 16th century. You’ll see the handsome houses constructed by wealthy merchants and garrison officers when you walk through the Rue de Doux area, and you’ll pass the 14th-century church and the oldest secondary school in France.

Choose between: Tournon and Tain-l’Hermitage Twin Villages Stroll with Wine Tasting OR Let's Go: Hermitage Terrace Vineyards Hike with Wine Tasting

A panoramic view of Lyon

Lyon, France Fri 14 Aug 2026

A panoramic view of Lyon

Ancient Lyon is a city of tantalizing contrasts, from Roman roots to stunning modern architecture and plenty of Renaissance flair in between. There's much to explore here, from the city's bike paths to the silk weavers' secret passageways. While you're in town, you might like to have lunch on your own at one of the many traditional bouchons that proliferate in the epicenter of French gastronomy.

A special Captain’s Farewell Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you this evening.

Choose between: Lyon Panoramic Tour with Traboules Visit OR Silk Weavers Walking Tour OR Let's Go: Lyon Peninsula Bike Tour

Macon, France Sat 15 Aug 2026

Macon's cityscape

The pace of life is decidedly more relaxed in Burgundy, where endless rows of grapes hang heavy on the vine. The capital of the region’s wine trade, Beaune is renowned for its history, beauty, and highly prized wine, as well as its medieval-era hospital—the Hospices de Beaune.
