The charm of yesterday,
of turn-of-the-century river boating. The woodwork and the shiny
brass of a beautifully restored riverboat. The Delphin has been
totally modernised, yet retains all the charm of riverboats from the
past. The beautiful layout and the quality materials call to mind
the master craftsmen at the time when Avignon was one of the most
active river ports in Provence.
The boat lifts anchor and
sails toward the famous Saint Benezet bridge, the Palace of the
Popes, the Rocher des Doms and Avignon's small harbour.
King Philip the Fair Tower, the Saint Andre Fort, then the big lock.
A one-hour boat ride around Avignon and Villeneuve. |
