Introducing A-Rosa’s cruise loyalty program, which rewards our past guests with extra savings!
David Morris International & A-Rosa Cruises...an introduction. David Morris International (DMI) is proud to represent, market & manage A-ROSA Cruises throughout the U.S., Canada and Australia. With more than 30 years Executive level experience working in the luxury cruise industry, DMI introduced A-ROSA’s European river vessels in 2013 to the North American market. A-ROSA was founded in 2000 in Germany and operates twelve river vessels throughout Europe. Currently, three of those vessels are marketed exclusively by DMI, which has raised the bar on the definition of “all-inclusive” European river cruising. Distinguishing itself from the competition, A-ROSA continues to offer their guests a true “escape from the ordinary”.
Why a river cruise vacation? SEE THE HEART OF EACH COUNTRY Unlike cruise ships that sail around the shores of Europe, river cruises take you directly into the villages, towns and cities along the interior rivers to the birthplaces of many countries. No need to wait for a transfer as most ports you will walk right off the vessel and into the culture, history, sites and tastes waiting for you just a few steps away. RELAX, UNPACK AND MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME Hotel stays require you unpack and pack every time you want to see a new location, never allowing you to really relax with the comforts that await you on a river cruise. Unpack and pack once and visit a new destination every day without the usual upheaval of changing hotels. You may wake up in a medieval village, a city world renowned for the arts or perhaps an epicurean’s dream. Every morning unveils a new place to explore & treasured experiences yet to be revealed. SENSITIVE TO MOTION? The rivers of Europe are more like cruising a placid lake, free of rolling and pitching waves. It is the perfect solution for those who find car, bus or ocean motion makes them queasy and unable to enjoy their valuable vacation time. UNCROWDED AND UNCOMPLICATED A-ROSA’s vessels carry an average of only 175 guests, thereby eliminating long lines to embark and disembark, staff knows your name by the second day and there’s always a place to sit. The ambiance onboard is hassle-free, casual and friendly.

sundeck : perfect for sightseeing, activities & fun!
A-Rosa’s fleet is equipped with some of the largest pools sailing European rivers.
the sun deck - you’ll never want to come back inside! Time on the sun deck can be measured in sunsets, laps in the pool, glasses of wine or the number of new friends you’ve made. But for most, time just stands still as you take in Europe’s fabled towns and picturesque countryside from your chaise lounge. Then again, time may fly during an exciting shuffleboard or giant chess game or even practice your putting game. What really matters is that you take all the time in the world to do whatever you want. The motto topside on the sun deck is “anything is possible, but nothing is required….just enjoy.”

A-Rosa’s active lifestyle...
...boredom is not an option!
A-Rosa’s open bar policy leaves you open to new friends!
an active lifestyle awaits you on A-ROSA - embrace the possibilities By escaping the ordinary you release yourself from that which you expect and let life show you all it has to offer. A-ROSA is the perfect venue for living life to its fullest, providing an environment which lets you decide just how adventurous or active you want to be.

Whatever you choose to do, you will know that you didn’t just take a tour…you experienced Europe to the fullest.

Only A-ROSA Cruises celebrates the best of French nouvelle cuisine with a complimentary lunch served exclusively for our guests at the restaurant of world-renowned chef, Paul Bocuse. He received the award for “Chef of the Century” from the Culinary Institute of America in New York in recognition of his high quality restaurants and innovative approaches to cuisine. His famous soupe aux truffles was created for a presidential dinner at the Elysee Palace in 1975 and is served to this day in his Lyon restaurant as Soupe V.G.E. If names such as Pouilly Fuisse and Chateauneuf du Pape conjour up thoughts of wine-perfection, then day-dream no more as you tour these famed grape growing regions with an expert guide on A-Rosa’s included excursions! Just a short ride from the ship you’ll experience the lush, green rolling hills of Mâcon and the delicate wines that this region produces. Conversely, just outside of Avignon lies Chateauneuf du Pape where the “Mistral”, an endless warm wind hardens the vines and creates wines with the bold flavors the whole world has come to respect. Of course, what would a tour of these regions be without tastings...included!

The word “Danube” inevitably conjures up the classical melody by Johann Strauss II, the Blue Danube; it’s just inescapable! However the smooth flow of the notes is soon second fiddle to the mesmerizing places you will see on A-ROSA’s Danube River cruise. With many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Danube sailings fill your senses with beauty, history, culture and almost a reverence of what you see all around you. Plus, it is a much sought after destination for those connoisseurs and epicureans amongst us. Highlights are too many to include all, but those that stand out are the spectacular Melk Abbey, the small train ride up the hill to see the Esztergom Basilica, the historical city center of Bratislava where cars are forbidden to operate, an evening concert in Vienna’s Hofburg, the old Residence in the heart of the city, the world-famous Lipizzaner horses at Vienna’s Spanish Riding School or a visit to the City of Mozart – the always stunning Salzburg.

The word “Danube” inevitably conjures up the classical melody by Johann Strauss II, the Blue Danube; it’s just inescapable! However the smooth flow of the notes is soon second fiddle to the mesmerizing places you will see on A-ROSA’s Danube River cruise. With many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Danube sailings fill your senses with beauty, history, culture and almost a reverence of what you see all around you. Plus, it is a much sought after destination for those connoisseurs and epicureans amongst us. Highlights are too many to include all, but those that stand out are the spectacular Melk Abbey, the small train ride up the hill to see the Esztergom Basilica, the historical city center of Bratislava where cars are forbidden to operate, an evening concert in Vienna’s Hofburg, the old Residence in the heart of the city, the world-famous Lipizzaner horses at Vienna’s Spanish Riding School or a visit to the City of Mozart – the always stunning Salzburg.

Tulip season throughout Amsterdam is one of the experiences many travelers have yet to cross off their “bucket list” and there is no better way to see it than on A-ROSA Cruises. In addition to the thousands of tulips that appear in the fields, gardens, parks, and line the canals, you will be taken to the most beautiful spring garden in the world, Keukenhoff, with more than 7 million tulips, daffodils and hyacinths that fill 32 hectares with color and fragrance. This stunning show of nature’s gift to us is well-deserved to be in the list of “10 Places you should definitely visit once in your lifetime”. In addition, you will also transit from the Rhine through the inland waterways and canals of Belgium and the Netherlands for a different view into this beautiful area of windmills, chocolate and waffles.

The Rhine River flows through some of the most picturesque scenery of Europe and some of the best wine growing regions in Germany. The Loreley Valley is rich with flora covered hillsides, magnificent castles and a window into the past where little has changed in hundreds of years. Visit the world-famous Black Forest complete with cuckoo clocks and Black Forest cake or perhaps a stroll through the half- timbered houses of Strasbourg and see storks making their huge straw nests atop the chimneys surrounding the city. Or transit from the Rhine through the inland waterways and canals of Belgium and the Netherlands for a different view into this beautiful area of windmills, chocolate and waffles.
