Cruises visiting Besancon

Besançon rewards visitors who look beyond France’s better-known cities. Set within a dramatic loop of the Doubs, the old town has an unusually graceful setting. Above it, Vauban’s citadel crowns the hill and forms part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore handsome squares, Roman remains and the birthplace of Victor Hugo, then discover the city’s long tradition of precision watchmaking. Its compact centre is best explored on foot, leaving time for a pause beside the river.
