Introducing European river-cruising your way! This wonderful collection of holidays marries discovery and exploration of some of Europe’s most scenic corners with the enjoyment of life aboard some of the most contemporary and stylish river-cruise vessels afloat. As each wonderful day slowly unfolds – life on the river is always lived in the slow lane – you’ll discover something new to savour and enjoy. It might be the ever-changing landscape viewed from the lounge or the ship’s sun deck, a fascinating port of call explored under your own steam or on an organised excursion, the conviviality of drinks or a meal with new found friends, or simply enjoying the ship’s wide range of amenities – the choice, and the holiday pleasures – are always yours.
Premium Inclusive, flexible, contemporary – the A-ROSA difference In addition to well-planned itineraries that mean, whichever river you choose to explore, you’ll discover new places and enjoy new experiences each day, your A-ROSA ship will be the perfect floating home-from-home throughout your journey. Amongst the most spacious vessels seen on Europe’s waterways – each being constructed to take account of the maximum allowable width on each river – A-ROSA ships are first and foremost oases of comfort and style. They offer plush lounges and bars, chic, well-appointed cabins and modern bathrooms, bright, airy restaurants and dining spaces, vast top decks that offer the chance of al fresco dining and drinks, a pool or whirlpool, games, loungers and the passing views, as well as an on-board SPA-ROSA and gym. Why would you ever wish to step ashore? Drinks on board – including top-quality brands – are offered on a Premium Inclusive basis throughout the day, and mealtimes are flexible, allowing you to enjoy not only breakfast, but also lunch and dinner at your convenience, rather than the restaurant’s. With free Wi-Fi and little touches like a gift of a rose, complimentary bathrobes, pool towel, slippers, bottled water and toiletries in each cabin, a holiday aboard an A-ROSA river-cruise ship, whichever waterway you’ve chosen to discover, is guaranteed to be a very special experience.

Everything else is taken care of, meaning you can just relax and enjoy your cruise to the full.

Enjoy full-board dining arrangements on board your chosen ship, with breakfast, lunch and dinner, with live cooking stations and gourmet buffet available throughout generous mealtimes each day, and sun deck barbecues on fine days.
Premium Inclusive drinks

Regional treats and specialities
From time to time, the ship’s chefs will come up with a special treat or two, complementing your location on the river – adding to the enjoyment of your holiday.
Afternoon tea
Always a highlight of the day, whether you’ve been enjoying an excursion or simply watching the world go by from a seat in the lounge or on the sun deck, don’t miss the chance to enjoy traditional tea, delicious cakes and pastries prepared by the chefs.

a lot!
In addition to the Premium Inclusive drinks and dining arrangements, you’ll enjoy all of the following on your A-ROSA cruise:

Enjoy all the pleasures of cruising, A-ROSA-style, with
hopefully plenty of time spent outdoors on the spacious top deck, as you explore this delightful region of Southern France. Step aboard in Lyon to sail north into the Saône, to lively, Burgundian Mâcon with its café-lined riverbank and brightly painted half-timbered houses, and sail on to historic Chalon, gateway to the Côte d’Or wine region. A brief call is made at Tournus, huddled beneath its Romanesque abbey, before an overnight cruise back to Lyon, and the chance, on an included guided tour, to discover the UNESCO-listed heart of the city. Sailing south into the Rhône, you’ll stay overnight in glorious Avignon, with its famed ‘pont’ and Palace of the Popes, and enjoy an evening guided tour. The cruise completes with calls in exquisite former Roman stronghold Arles, charming Viviers and La Voulte-sur-Rhône, before a last cruise back to Lyon.
