This past Saturday in Lyon, France, we stepped off the river cruiser A-ROSA Stella following a weeklong cruise on the Rhône and Saône rivers in southern France.

The itinerary was gorgeous, with visits to vineyards, bicycle trips through the French countryside, fine dining, sunsets on the rivers and the chance to stroll through charming villages, cities and towns such as Avignon and Arles. Of course, the French wines, included at no extra charge — as were all beverages — were refreshing, delicious and generously poured.

So that you can get a feel for our trip and the A-ROSA Stella, we’ve posted a super-sized slideshow (88 photos) that should work well on your mobile devices as well as in your desktop browser. So sit back and enjoy a cruise along the Rhône and Saône.

Check out our photo slideshow featuring our weeklong cruise on A-ROSA Stella.
