A seven-day river cruise aboard the Cyrano de Bergerac (CroisiEurope) sets out from Bordeaux along the Gironde, Dordogne and Garonne, right through France's most celebrated wine regions.
The journey pairs château tastings in the Médoc and Saint-Émilion with charming Atlantic towns such as Royan, La Rochelle and Rochefort, and natural wonders like the Dune du Pilat – Europe's largest sand dune.
Christian Könitzer documents the trip day by day, with tastings, harbour strolls and personal observations. Read the full report on derreiseleiter.ch.
