New to Cruise - River Cruises

Sit back and take in the stunning scenery as you glide along picturesque waterways and dock right in the heart of charming towns and vibrant cities. With river ships often mooring in central locations, you’ll find yourself just steps away from each destination’s highlights.

River cruises offer a warm, welcoming atmosphere, with smaller ships typically carrying between 50 and 200 guests. Cabins are designed for comfort and most feature river views, so you won’t miss a moment of the passing landscapes.

Many river cruises also include a wealth of extras in the upfront price, letting you relax without worrying about added costs. From freshly prepared meals and drinks to enriching shore excursions and guided tours, so much is taken care of for you.
