Poh Ling Yeow cruises through the southwest of France with Scenic

Famous foodie Poh Ling Yeow was excited to be cruising through the south-west of France on a gastronomical, culinary and delicious truly all-inclusive luxury river cruise on the 5-star Scenic Space-Ship. Her taste buds were buzzing with thoughts of all the mouthwatering treats on offer during her Beautiful Bordeaux river cruise with Scenic.

Bordeaux, France.

Experience a culinary journey along France's breathtaking waterways in truly 5-star luxury with Scenic in 2023. Exclusive Scenic Enrich experiences, Scenic Freechoice activities, all on-board meals and premium drinks are included. 

Getaway viewers can save $300 per person with an exclusive voucher, plus fly Business Class in 2023 from $3,995pp. 

To request your voucher visit scenic.com.au/getaway , call 1300 790 372 or speak to your nearest Scenic travel advisor. 

Prices correct at 9.07.2022.

Highlights:

Bordeaux City is the starting point of Poh's luxury river cruise and the perfect place to taste a local specialty called canelés – a satisfying first course before heading up the Garonne River to Saint Croix du Mont. Once surrounded by the ocean, Saint Croix du Mont is home to another delicious morsel, truffles. Poh visited local truffle farmer David and his dog Aya, on the hunt to find the best truffles, known as black diamonds. 

Saint Emilion is one of south-western France's most enchanting villages and home to a monolithic church. The monolithic church is one made from a single block of stone and in this case, carved and dug inside the limestone plateau of Saint Emilion. It started in the ninth Century as a Chapel dedicated to the monk Emilion. Then, as timed passed, it was turned into a cemetery. Luckily for Poh, Scenic organised a guided tour into the catacombs to explore its history. 

Saint Emilion is also home to a 400-year-old French delicacy, the macaron. It's said that a group of nuns first made the macarons and the recipe has been passed down for generations and Poh was certainly keen to have a taste.

The tasty treats are certainly not just enjoyed on land, Scenic Diamond is home to many dining options including Crystal Dining, L'Armour and Table la Rive. They also offer Scenic Culinaire cooking classes for guests to learn some tricks of cooking French cuisine. 

Back in Bordeaux Poh enjoyed a Scenic Enrich experience at Les Bassin Des Lumieres or Pools of Light, in an old Nazi submarine base With 90 video projectors to illuminate every available surface with art and 80 speakers this unique experience takes you on a journey through time. 

A new day and a new town – Arcachon. Poh headed off on an included guided walking tour to explore the village markets in search for the best local produce. A must-try in Arcachon is the fresh oysters and Poh is a massive fan so had a dozen come her way! But for guests who stayed on the spaceship, Scenic organised an oyster tasting in the comfort of the Panorama lounge on board. 

Next stop was Blaye, just three hours downstream from Bordeaux, most famous for the 17th Century Citadel. The Citadel was built during the reign of Louis the 14th to protect the city of Bordeaux. Poh spent the afternoon exploring the secret tunnels of this UNESCO World Heritage site. 

The perfect way to detoxify and rebalance after a long day exploring is relaxing in the salt therapy lounge. Handcrafted from salt bricks, it recreates the microclimate of a natural salt room.
