The Riviera River Cruises difference
Well-balanced itineraries
Excursions are included in all ports, and there’s also plenty of free time to explore on your own. Often, the ship stays in port late into the evening or even overnight, if guests wish to stroll ashore after dinner.
Great value
River cruising is fantastic value for money, as all the excursions, port charges and taxes are included in the price.
Always a view
Unlike ocean cruising with endless days at sea, there is always something to see on a river cruise. All our cabins have a window – there are no inside cabins.
Luxurious and modern ships
Our five-star ships are some of Europe’s finest and most modern, built to the highest specifications and strict safety regulations.
An informal atmosphere
Enjoy informal free seating. There are no formal black-tie evenings, but smart-casual dress is recommended with the option to dress up for the Captain's Dinner if your clients wish.
No long transfers for excursions
On a river cruise our ships are often moored right in the heart of the destination so transfers for excursions tend to be much shorter than on an ocean cruise.
Plus of course
• Happy by day two or we assist in bringing your guests home by helping to make flight change arrangements, pay any fare increase or change fee and provide a full refund • Our professional crew is on call 24/7 including a dedicated cruise concierge and cruise director • Complimentary coffee, tea, water and refillable water bottles in all cabins • Free Wi-Fi included throughout every ship (connection speeds may vary) • Fascinating tours and excursions with expert guides, cruise directors and headsets • On-board amenities such as a steam room, sauna, fitness suite, pool, library and the use of bicycles • More intimate – river cruise ships are of a modest size so that they can fit through the locks on the rivers. Our largest ship only takes 169 passengers • Outstanding dining – sample regional cuisine or a familiar favorite. All meals are included in the price as is the option to have continental breakfast in their cabin cabin at no extra charge • Optional drinks package – only pay for what you drink
