About Paris, France

JANN ARDEN RETURNS TO AVALON

Canadian singer and songwriter Jann Arden was named the godmother of the Avalon Waterways Tranquility II in 2015. At the time she described the honour as “whimsical and wonderful.”  Now, fans of Jann Arden have a treat in store: next year she will be hosting a special sailing, where as well as mingling with passengers, Arden will perform a private concert for passengers and participate in a photo op and CD signing.

Arden who is a fan of river cruising and says she’s very much looking forward to joining the group, will be on the Paris to Normandy’s Landing Beaches cruise set for April 29, 2017 on the Avalon Tapestry II for four of the seven days of the itinerary.

The cruise originates in Paris and continues north along the Seine to Vernon where guests have the choice of a tour of artist Monet’s home at Giverny or the elaborate Bizy Castle – “Normandy’s Versailles”. 

The next day there will be the choice of touring the Thatched Cottage Roof or visiting several of the 100 ancient Abbeys that dot this corner of France. The following day, Arden will accompany the group to Juno beach; and next day will be a guided walk through the medieval charms of Rouen, once home to Joan of Arc. 

Before sailing back to Paris, the ship will also stop at Conflans for a visit to a village where artist Vincent Van Gogh lived, or the splendid Château de Malmaison estate which was Napoleon and Josephine Bonaparte’s home.
