A quiet corner, a beautiful view, and the river drifting by… one of my favorite ways to spend part of the day on a river cruise. ✨

Truly hard to decide….should we save money or go for the view? Tell me what would you do?

I’m officially counting down to France! 🇫🇷

This October, I’ll be sailing with Viking on their Lyon & Provence river cruise, beginning in Avignon and traveling along the Rhône to Lyon.

I’m especially excited to experience this itinerary firsthand ; the ship, the food, the excursions, the destinations, and all of those little details that are hard to truly understand until you’ve actually sailed it yourself.

And of course, I’ll be taking you along with me. ❤️

Once onboard I’ll be sharing plenty of photos, videos, tips, and my own impressions of the Viking experience.

So if Viking has ever been on your radar, or you’ve wondered whether a river cruise might be right for you, follow along and send me your questions.

Is there anything in particular you’d like me to check out while I’m onboard?

Follow along with me: Viking on the Rhône

I’m excited to share that this October, I’ll be sailing with Viking on their Lyon & Provence river cruise through the South of France!

Our journey begins in Avignon and follows the Rhône River north to Lyon, with stops in some of the region’s most beautiful historic towns, wine country and Provençal landscapes.

As a Viking Cruise Specialist, I’m looking forward to experiencing the ship, dining, excursions and overall Viking experience firsthand, and sharing an honest, behind-the-scenes look with you along the way.

Over the next few months, I’ll be sharing more about the itinerary, what makes Viking different, how I’m preparing for the trip and, of course, plenty of updates once we are sailing.

Have you ever considered a Viking river cruise? Send me your questions or follow along as I experience Lyon & Provence for myself!
