Following the lively Armada in Rouen, step aboard the tall ship for a trip connecting two historic maritime hubs. Traveling from the banks of the Seine to the Atlantic port of La Rochelle, this six-night itinerary blends scenic river cruising, coastal navigation, and tall ship life.
The journey starts with a tranquil passage down the Seine, leaving Rouen's riverfront behind for lush green shores, countryside villages, and the expanding estuary. Reaching the English Channel, we head into open water, tracing a course west past the Normandy coast, around the rugged tip of Brittany, and south into the Atlantic toward La Rochelle.
On board, you can work alongside the team to set sails, practice basic seamanship, or take a turn at the wheel with guidance from the crew. Participation is completely optional, leaving plenty of opportunity to relax on deck, chat with fellow travelers, and embrace the rhythm of life at sea under the long summer daylight.
The voyage finishes in La Rochelle, a city with a deep naval and maritime history. Its iconic harbor towers, ancient stone quays, and bustling streets create a fantastic backdrop for independent exploration after stepping ashore.
