We'll leave on foot to visit the medieval castle in Château-Thierry. In these fortifications which have dominated the Marne Valley for centuries, you'll take part in an educational falconry performance with live demonstrations. You'll get the chance to discover an art that has been classified as Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. You'll literally rub elbows with impressive birds. It's the perfect occasion to view these amazing animals up close and discover their prowess. You might even be so lucky as to touch one or two! After our visit, we'll return to the ship.

- Good walking shoes are recommended for this excursion.
- For the end of year departures from October, the educational falconry performance is replaced by the visit to the Hôtel-Dieu in Château-Thierry.
