We were greeted at the airport and quickly transported to the boat at Le Pecq, just outside Paris proper. Upon our arrival we were impressed with the quick check-in and friendly staff. The two main reasons we picked this particular cruise was to visit Monet's property in Giverny and the D Day landing sites. Both moving and unforgettable. The other sites and cities were like the "whipped cream" on top of the cake. Vernon, Rouen, Les Andelys, were all delightful and a wonderful experience. All in all one of the best trips my wife and I have ever experienced.

The room and the overall ship accommodations were Five Star! Our meals were memorable to say the least. Just a wonderful time. Meeting and getting to know some of our fellow passengers was enlightening. The talks by the ship's tour director and hotel manager were quite interesting and helpful to us in anticipation of the next day's tours.
