Grand Circle M/S Provence

[Kra]

We are planning a trip from Paris to Nice aboard the M/S Provence. Has anyone been on this ship, any good choice of cabins, is the ship air conditioned? We would appreciate any info you can share. Thank you!

We have taken 6 river cruises with Grand Circle and enjoyed them all. The most recent one was on the Seine. I have posted a blog on that trip. It is jackthetravelingman-seine.blogspot.com.

We're looking forward to our first river cruise, and it'll be on the M/S Provence Rhine & Mosel trip. Searching for info on the ports (docks?) of call.

I'm confused. To the best of my knowledge the ships used on the Rhine and Mosel cruise are the River Melody, River Rhapsody and River Harmony, all 140 passenger ships, and the MS Provence, a 46 passenger ship, only does the the Cruising Burgundy and Provence itinerary.

Sorry, you're right. We're on the M/S River Rhapsody for the Rhine/Mosel trip.

Rich & Margaret,

 

We have not been on this specific cruise, but have taken 5 other Grand Circle river cruises. The one stop that is in common beteeen yours and any of ours is Koblenz. Here is a MAP of the docking location. It is in the mouth of the Mosel, right in the heart of the old part of town. Most of the docks should be similar, but, in a few cases, such a convenient docking location may not be available. If you look at the other cities with google.maps, you may be able to identify them.

 

You can post questions on the gct forum. See my post above. Someone should be able to give you other dock locations, but that site does not get the traffic that Cruise Critic does.
