Reputed to be uncontrollable, the Rhône is today a pleasantly navigable river.
The stretch that flows through Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur is one of the most
picturesque sections. At the stopping places along the river, a captivating
natural, historical and cultural heritage is waiting to be discovered :
fortresses erected along the riverside, the châteaux of Tarascon and
Beaucaire, the "citie of art and history" of Avignon...
Many companies propose boat trips or river cruises lasting several days
in a floating hotel. Contact the tourist information office in Avignon.
