Wine lovers' cruise along the Saône and Rhône with VFB Holidays

July 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Travelzest’s VFB Holidays, the river cruise specialist, invites wine lovers - with an appetite for insight into their passion - to cruise France’s most majestic rivers, visit its most celebrated vineyards….all from a floating hotel.

Grand cru-sing along the, you’ll encounter and enjoy tastings in all the key regions including Côte de Beaune, Beaujolais, Vivarais, Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Cassis. With five nights aboard the spacious and splendid MS Camargue, the Wine Lovers’ Cruise takes you to picturesque villages, undulating hills, the spectacular gorges of the Ardèche and to a state-of-the-art wine museum.

Accompanied by a Meilleur Sommelier de France, the wine production process is brought to life. And, on the last day, the morning’s cruise is animated with a quiz; the tie-breaker’s a blind tasting and the prize? A four-day gastronomic cruise on the Rhône or the Rhine.

Departing 14 October, the Wine Lovers’ Cruise costs from £871 pp (two sharing) – with a free upgrade to an Upper Deck cabin* – including return travel by Eurostar, transfers, five nights’ B&B aboard the MS Camargue, five dinners and four lunches, shore excursions and the services of a VFB Tour Manager abroad.

*Subject to availability and must be booked by 12 August.
