🇫🇷 Paris is always a good idea. Paris by river? Even better.
And in 2027, there will be even more opportunities to experience it.
Avalon Waterways is expanding its Paris to Normandy (Tour WPP) sailings to two Suite Ships in 2027, giving travelers more chances to experience one of the most captivating journeys along the Seine.
And this itinerary packs a lot of France into eight days.
🎨 Walk through Claude Monet’s gardens at Giverny or visit Bizy Castle, known as “Normandy’s Versailles”
🇫🇷 Wander the medieval streets of Rouen, forever connected to Joan of Arc, and see its magnificent Gothic cathedral
🇺🇸 Choose an excursion to the Normandy Landing Beaches, including Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc and the American Cemetery
🎨 Visit Auvers-sur-Oise, associated with Vincent van Gogh and other legendary artists, or explore Napoleon and Josephine’s Château de Malmaison
🍷 Enjoy the w**e, cheese, villages and changing scenery of the Seine along the way
✨ And then there’s Paris.
Because this isn’t a river cruise that simply uses Paris as a place to embark. Paris is part of the experience.
Explore the City of Light through its history and iconic sights, then return to your Avalon Suite Ship and watch France come to you from the Seine.
And depending on when you travel, the same itinerary can feel completely different.
🌸 See Paris in bloom in spring
☀️ Experience Rouen Cathedral’s summer light show
👗 Discover another side of the city around Paris Fashion Week
🍂 Or watch the Seine take on the softer colors and quieter pace of fall
Same river. Same incredible places. A different France depending on when you choose to go.
And with two Avalon Suite Ships sailing Paris to Normandy in 2027, there are even more opportunities to find the season that speaks to you.
