Bordeaux Region River Cruises
Stunningly beautiful Bordeaux is a UNESCO world heritage site and is a highlight of river cruises along the Garonne in southwest France, with world-famous vineyards being some of the top attractions in this region. A cruise in this region will take you into the heart of rural France, spotted with historic villages, country markets and world-famous wine chateaus such as Lafite-Rothschild, Margaux, Haut-Medoc, Saint-Émilion, Cognac and Graves. Most cruises sail on the Garonne and Dordogne rivers in a more compact area than the Rhine and Danube rivers, meaning there will be less daylight sailings, but if you love wine, gastronomy, palatial settings and majestic gardens, Bordeaux will deliver.
