Happy to see that Conde Nast Traveler Readers Voted Viking River Cruise Lines to ‘Top 10 Small Ship Cruise
Lines’ in 2006 Annual Survey.
Why? Because we’ll be setting sail in August 2007 on their Viking Burgundy, 152 person passenger ship to lead a group of 30 travelers through the glorious south of France on an antiquing adventure. It’ll be fun filled days sailing along the Saône and Rhône Rivers capped off with 3 days in Paris. We’ll be antiquing along the way (guided by my better half, antique expert Martin Swinton), visiting wineries and soaking up the best of Provence. Next summer can’t come too soon, I say.

Wow what a fabulous sounding trip. You’ll love Isle sur la Sorge Sunday Market. And the village is so picturesque and ‘over’ populated with antique shops. Enjoy the trip and enjoy the anticipation.

Karen,
Unfortunately, we won’t be able to visit Isle sur la Sorge due to our itinerary, which we can’t change. We’ll arrive in Avignon on Sunday to board the ship (likely a little jetlagged), head to Arles on Monday, Avignon on Tuesday and upwards through Provence and to Paris. As you know, Isle sur la Sorge is only open on Sundays. Maybe we’ll visit on another trip.
