Between river and trails, set off on an unforgettable cruise that combines the charm of a river journey with the pleasure of hiking. From Lyon to Arles, passing through the jewels of the Rhône Valley and southern Burgundy, this trip invites you to discover in a different way the natural, cultural and historical treasures of southeastern France.

Each day offers a stop rich in discoveries: from urban walks through the history of Lyon, to spectacular views from the Roche de Solutré, through the wild magic of the Camargue and the serenity of the Alpilles. Whether you're a passionate hiker or a curious walker, the excursions are designed to offer each guest a unique perspective on the landscapes encountered.
