Call it joie de vivre. Call it savoir-faire.
Whatever you call it, the French certainly
know a thing or two about celebrating the
good things in life. As do you. Watching the
world go by over a chilled glass of
Champagne at a Parisian pavement café.
Enjoying a rich, velvety Bordeaux and
spectacular vineyard views from the terrace
of a traditional château. Seeing a landscape
for the first time through the eyes of a great
painter. You could travel through France a
million times and still discover new sights,
sounds and sensations around every corner.
Dine in a Bordeaux château
The Bordeaux region boasts around 10,000
wine-producing châteaux and some of the
world's most celebrated wines. You don't
need to be a wine buff to appreciate the
vintages produced by the Château Siaurac
estate, which you can enjoy on a
Privileged Access private wine tasting,
exclusive to Viking.
