Saône River Cruises

Cruise the Saône with Viking, as gentle countryside and historic cities unfold before you. Savor Lyon, France’s traditional gastronomic capital. Taste ruby-red wines in the lush vineyards of Beaujolais and Burgundy. Join us to experience this rewarding corner of France, up close.

Highlights of the Saône River

The Saône River emerges from the hills of the Vosges department and flows for more than 280 miles before meeting the Rhône in Lyon. This scenic waterway courses past some of France’s most scenic panoramas and compelling cities that have seen the rise and fall of the Roman, Burgundian and Frankish Empires. Some of the most important churches of Europe were built upon its shores in the Middle Ages and its waters have nourished the famed vineyards of Burgundy and Beaujolais. Here are a few sample highlights of a Saône river cruise:

  • Gastronomic pleasures of Lyon, France’s culinary capital
  • Historic cobblestone streets of Old Lyon
  • Wine tastings in an atmospheric Beaujolais cellar
  • Lush vineyards of the Burgundy wine region
  • Stunning lavender and sunflower fields of Provence
