The Cirkwi brief

Discover the Seine: Cruise with Cultural Highlights
Embarking on a river cruise with CroisiEurope along the enchanting Seine River offers a unique vantage point to explore the rich tapestry of French heritage and natural beauty. From the historic heart of Paris to the serene beaches of Normandy, this journey weaves together a narrative that is both visually stunning and deeply rooted in cultural significance. As you glide past illuminated landmarks, quaint villages, and iconic coastlines, CroisiEurope ensures an experience that marries the comforts of modern travel with the allure of ancient traditions and landscapes. It's a voyage that promises to captivate your senses and reignite your passion for discovery.

Technical Journey Overview
This 700.924km cruise embarks from Port de Javel Bas, navigating the varied elevations of France’s Seine river, from a minimum altitude to a maximum of 39 meters. The route’s technicalities involve managing the river’s locks and undercurrents, crucial for timely arrivals at destinations like Les Andelys and Honfleur. The navigation complexity increases as the cruise approaches the engineering marvel, the Normandy bridge, before looping back to Paris. Notably, the significant positive elevation change, totaling 1801411 meters, showcases the meticulous planning CroisiEurope employs to ensure a seamless journey for all onboard.

Seasonal Tips and Recommendations
When exploring the Seine with CroisiEurope, timing is key for an optimal experience. Spring blossoms or autumn leaves bring the landscapes to life, offering cooler weather and less crowded excursions. During summer, the longer days provide ample opportunity for evening walks in the old towns. However, always carry a light jacket as river breezes can be brisk. Winter travelers will find the illuminated Paris evening cruise magical, though it’s wise to dress warmly. Regardless of the season, comfortable walking shoes are a must for cobblestone streets and castle explorations.

From Paris to Normandy: A Cultural Voyage
The journey from Paris to Normandy via the Seine River showcases a tapestry of France's historical and cultural evolution. Paris, with its globally renowned landmarks, offers a glimpse into French aristocracy and intellectual prowess. As the vessel ventures towards Les Andelys, the significance of the Château de Martainville unfolds, revealing narratives of medieval France. Furthermore, the route highlights the strategic importance of Rouen during the Viking era and its architectural marvels. Each stop along the Seine serves as a living museum, presenting stories from different epochs, deeply ingrained in Normandy's serene landscapes and resilient communities.

Climate Insights for the Seine Journey
The climate of the Seine's path through France varies, carrying continental influences with mild summers and cool winters. The optimum time for a cruise is late spring through early autumn, when you'll encounter fewer rain showers and enjoy mild temperatures. July and August deliver warmer days perfect for seaside excursions in Honfleur, but be prepared for occasional showers. Winter months, while colder, offer a distinct charm with fewer tourists and picturesque frosty scenes, particularly appealing for those who appreciate serene beauty and the romantic ambiance of Parisian nights by the river.

Visité guidée à pied de Rouen - Croisière sur la Seine avec CroisiEurope

Départ à pied pour la visite guidée de Rouen. A 5 minutes à pied de l'embarcadère, se trouve le centre historique de la ville et sa célèbre cathédrale. Malgré les bombardements des guerres passées, Rouen a conservé au cœur de son quartier historique, sillonné de rues piétonnes, de nombreux bâtiments de l’époque médiévale. La Cathédrale est un très bel exemple d’architecture gothique flamboyant, édifié entre le XIIe et le XVIe siècle, elle fut gravement endommagée en 1944. Restaurée à grand-peine, elle connaît en 1986 sa dernière phase de travaux. Pour rejoindre la place du Vieux Marché où fut brûlée Jeanne d’Arc, vous emprunterez la rue du Gros-Horloge. Le Gros-Horloge est l'un des monuments emblématiques de la ville de Rouen. La construction, accolée à un beffroi, est constituée d'une arche Renaissance enjambant la rue du Gros-Horloge surmontée d'une horloge astronomique du XIVe siècle. Enfin, inaugurée le 27 Mai 1979, vous visiterez l’église Sainte Jeanne d’Arc, vaste monument contemporain qui s'élève sur la place du Vieux Marché, et qui répond à une double reconnaissance : c'est à la fois une église pour honorer Sainte Jeanne d'Arc et un mémorial civil pour commémorer l'héroïne célébrée par la France le deuxième dimanche du mois de mai. Retour à bord à pied à Rouen en fin d’après midi. www.croisieurope.com/croisieres/excursions/visite-guidee-a-pied-de-rouen-2015
