Seine River Cruises

Paris, Normandy and landscapes that inspired artists

EMEA · France

Discover the Seine

Seine cruises connect Paris with the towns and countryside of Normandy. River bends, chalk cliffs and historic ports provide a scenic counterpoint to the capital. Art, architecture and twentieth-century history feature in many shore programmes, with some visits requiring longer road transfers.

Cruise routes

Many journeys begin and end in Paris, visiting ports such as Rouen and Les Andelys. Giverny and Normandy’s coast are reached through land excursions when included. The exact sailing endpoint and time in Paris vary by itinerary.

Shore highlights

Paris

River views and time ashore introduce the capital’s landmarks, neighbourhoods and cultural collections.

Normandy towns

Rouen and smaller river ports offer medieval streets, local markets and regional architecture.

Art and history

Selected excursions explore Impressionist landscapes or Normandy’s wartime history; check travel times and inclusions.

When to travel

Spring through autumn is the main season. Garden visits are seasonal, and summer can be busy at major attractions. Spring and autumn often bring milder conditions, though rain is possible throughout the year.

Planning your journey

Check the embarkation port, included excursions, walking requirements and transfer arrangements for your chosen itinerary. Entry requirements depend on your nationality and every country visited. River levels and local conditions may change the sailing programme.
