River Cruises

Top Reasons to River Cruise in Europe

1. State of the Art Ships

River cruise ships have come a long way over the year. The ships are now modern, boutique hotels with a selection of large staterooms and suites, and everything you need onboard. Fitness center, spa. restaurants and many new features are now available.

2. Cruise Europe's Most Scenic Waterways
You can enjoy the scenery including amazing castles and architecture from your cabin or deck while traveling from one region to another while enjoying fresh air or even a glass of wine.

3. An Inclusive with Exceptional Value
Prices includes shore excursions, your meals, wine with dinner, local entertainment and often even free wifi. Because the ship holds only around 150 passenger, you can expect personalized service throughout your vacation.

4.  Travel through the Heart of Europe
You can cruise from Amsterdam to the black sea and each time you arrive somewhere you are right in the center of the city.  No cabs or buses. Just a short walk and you can enjoy the locals, culture and cuisine of each area you are visiting.

5.  Complimentary Shore Excursions
Expert local guides offer an over view of the area, and then you can enjoy free time on your own.  Perhaps you would like to use the complimentary bicycles on board. 

Whether you want to cruise past vineyards, castles and ruins along the Danube, or see the enchanting lowland plains and high peaks of the Alps in Germany, or the Temples, Tombs and Treasure of the Nile, you can find it all here.
