CroisiEurope presents a new and exclusive cruise on the Seine that highlights the history and beauty of Normandy.
The company offers four unique departures for this itinerary, in late July and early August, for a unique five-day trip departing from Rouen and visiting Honfleur and Le Havre, before returning to Rouen.
Starting in Rouen, known as the city of a thousand bell towers and capital of the Normandy region, passengers will have time to discover the medieval city and its rich historical past, with its Gothic churches such as the imposing church of Saint-Maclau, or its narrow streets and beautiful half-timbered houses.

Its historic center, designed by Perret, was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005.
The journey continues with a cruise to Rouen, including full board featuring delicious French cuisine, drinks included with meals and at the bar, port taxes, a complimentary single supplement, a welcome cocktail, entertainment, and a gala evening on the last night.
