Get to Know Your Destinations
Ready for your Trip?
As you glide along the tranquil river, you’ll be treated to a constantly changing panorama of picturesque landscapes, from rolling hills and charming villages to historic cities.
Have You Considered?
Meal arrangements on river cruises can vary. Often, you’ll find a mix of served and buffet options. For example, the main entrée might be served to your table, while salads and desserts are available at a buffet. This combination allows for both personalized service and the flexibility to choose from a variety of options. If you have dietary restrictions, do let our Guest Services team know as soon as possible.
Did You Know?
There are different types of cabins available on river cruises. French or Juliet balconies offer a full wall opening, sometimes with a ledge to stand on, providing a sense of openness. Panoramic windows that open widely give you a great view and fresh air. Picture windows, similar in size to a frame, offer a fixed but clear view of the passing scenery.You’ll enjoy constant scenery throughout your journey, as the smaller, more intimate ships navigate rivers, bridges, and locks. The compact cabins, all facing outside, reflect the ship’s size. Despite cozier quarters, you’ll appreciate the efficiency of embarking and disembarking daily.
A Tip To Prep For Your Trip
Bring cash for smaller markets and vendors during your river cruise. While many larger establishments accept credit cards, local artisans, street vendors, and small shops in charming riverside towns often prefer or only accept cash. Having some local currency (typically Euro) on hand ensures you won’t miss out on unique souvenirs, local delicacies, or authentic experiences in the quaint destinations you’ll visit.
Hear It From A Previous Tour Guest
Hear it from a previous tour guest, “What I enjoyed the most was waking up in a different city each morning without having to pack and unpack my suitcase each time. The views from the cruise as we approached each new city were just enchanting. I felt like I was in a fairytale.”
