The seven day cruise from Paris to Honfleur on the MS Seine Princess, the MS Renoir and the MS Botticelli, will feature on-board presentations by experts, as well as guided visits to sites that inspired numerous masterpieces.
Additional highlights of the cruise include a visit to Claude Monet’s house in Giverny, a tour of Rouen and the Musée des Beaux-Arts, and a tour of the Alabaster coast, the Pays de Caux and the Seine estuary.
There will also be a visit to the Musée Marmottan in Paris, which is said to house the largest collection of paintings by Claude Monet, and a ‘Guinguette’ (translated as a French dance hall) evening.
Art enthusiasts will also be able to learn about the origins and techniques of Impressionism, as well as the art movement’s impact and influences on Paris, Honfleur and the Norman coast.
