2021 RIVER CRUISE COLLECTION

YOUR AWARD WINNING INDEPENDENT TRAVEL & CRUISE SPECIALISTS


Time to choose a River Cruise? River cruising is a relaxing way to discover some of the world’s most beautiful cities that can only be accessed by a smaller ship. You can enjoy the scenery as you float on the calmest of waters. River cruising is a more civilized way to see a country and its people at work and play. It’s a journey through history and everchanging scenery. River cruising is the best way to discover some of the world’s greatest treasures, both natural and man-made. It gives you the real experience.

So why Choose a River Cruise? River cruising is unrivalled in its ability to offer a unique experience as you discover many sights and cultures throughout the world, stress free whilst your luxury hotel moves with you. It is a smaller ship, shared with fewer people and you are always close to land. The dining experience onboard is of an extremely high standard and there are often many extra benefits included in the price, providing you with great value for money. The Views The ever changing landscape allows you to encounter awe inspiring mountain ranges, lush vineyards, bustling cities and fairy-tale castles. On a river cruise there is always something to see and daytime cruising is very much part of the attraction. Discover Destinations Your river cruise ship will be docked in the heart of the city, allowing you to either join an escorted excursion or be totally independent and explore the city by yourself. All itineraries are created with the most popular sites in mind and the most knowledgeable local staff to guide you on your exploration. Some companies carry bicycles onboard for you to use and go off exploring on your own.


Unpack Only Once Your cabin is your home away from home and the river ship is your own floating hotel. You will awake each day to a different view and you can do that for as long as you want to. Itineraries can range from 3 to 21 nights. Intimate & Relaxing River cruises offer a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, with most river boats accommodating a maximum of 150 passengers. With various different dining experiences and social areas on offer, there is guaranteed to be something to suit everyone. It can sometimes feel as if the whole experience has been laid on just for you. On Board Enrichment & Entertainment A river cruise can be a time to learn and enjoy the new culture and experiences of the countries that you visit, such as local cookery classes, language lessons, lectures from local historians and academics, regional music and entertainment. Itineraries & Ships There are a number of companies offering a wide selection of River Cruise ships that cover a large choice of the world’s rivers, from Europe to Asia, America to Africa, there will be an itinerary and cabin choice to suit all tastes and budgets. Each ship has a range of suites and cabin types which now can include full balconies. For those who are wanting this extra special level of indulgence, river cruising will exceed your expectations...

All-Inclusive Pricing River Cruising offers various options for all budgets. A river cruise holiday offers your flights or rail, overseas transfers, accommodation in your selected grade of stateroom or Suite, and all meals. A number of companies also include drinks, excursions, entry tickets, port fees and often tipping. People who love to cruise, do so for many different reasons... They like the inclusive cost of accommodation, entertainment, dining, seeing different destinations on one trip and in some cases even more is included. Whether you wish to discover the cultural canvas of Europe, explore remote villages along the Mekong, or experience the ancient cities and temples of China, India and Myanmar, you’ll appreciate the blissful convenience of river cruising as you travel from one discovery to the next. Your river cruise experience will give you all that and more...

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ 2021 river cruises, designed not only to allow you to explore Europe’s greatest waterways, but experience them too, on itineraries combining historic and culturerich destinations with some of the most beautiful regions on the continent.

Brabant’s classic design is a little smaller than many river ships, completely in line with Fred. Olsen’s approach to cruising. Like their oceangoing fleet, this smaller-scaled river ship retains the style, ambience and understated quality of a country house hotel.

Sailing the Rhine, Moselle and Danube rivers, small ship Brabant can take you through gorgeous scenes of rolling countryside and world-famous vineyards to the very doorstep of destinations like Budapest, Cologne and Strasbourg, and even glide into Luxembourg and all the way to the magical Danube Delta. See natural wonders such as the Middle Rhine, Moselle Valley and Iron Gates gorge on board, and ashore, taste local cultures, traditions and flavours of wines, beers and cuisine.

Brabant is the perfect travelling companion for your adventures. With four decks and fewer than 80 rooms and suites in total, this stylish, comfortable river ship retains the intimate, ‘home-from-home’ atmosphere which Fred. Olsen guests know and love. Brabant is carefully tailored to appeal to British guests. Even if you’re a first time cruiser you’ll find the whole experience reassuringly familiar. Each day on a Fred. Olsen River Cruise presents new adventures. There is daytime scenic cruising so you can enjoy the views from the open deck, in the lounges, or from the panoramic windows of their room, and will moor as close as is operationally possible to the heart of each destination, whether a city, town or village.

Choose your 2021 Branbant River Cruise and we’ll take care of your Tips for your Cabin Stewardess and Waiter and give you a FREE Dining Drinks package, covering your drinks at lunch and dinner, if you book by 31st August 2020.
