2019 River Cruise Offers
Over 50 itineraries aboard 20 stylish ships, sailing Europe's most enchanting waterways, such as the Danube, Rhone & Moselle
For our 2019 river cruise programme we’ve added extra ships with new itineraries as well as creating brand new tours for some of our existing ships.
As well as the new cruises, we will see the return of old favourites such as Provencal Rhone and Carmaque, Portugal, Spain and the Douro Valley and Bordeaux and the Dordogne River.
Why not celebrate New Year on a River cruise with us on one of our new end of year cruises? Or tour some of the most beautiful Christmas markets in some of the quaintest towns and cities in Europe on our Christmas Markets on the Rhine tour.
As well as the glorious Rhine, new cruises take in the Danube, the Dutch waterways, the stunning Loire valley and even Italy.
