Our passion is small ships and the vessels we use are of course big enough to sail the seven seas comfortably but small enough to drop anchor in places off the beaten track, avoiding the regular, crowded tourist stops whenever possible. Whether you’re planning your first cruise, or you are well versed in the world of small ship or river cruising, there is a huge array of vessels to choose from. We hope you enjoy browsing through our selection of small ships. Whether you join one of our voyages close to home in the Hebrides or in far flung Melanesia, you will be assured of a warm welcome on board and a big experience aboard one of our small ships.
At Noble Caledonia we have been operating river cruises for almost 30 years, providing a wide selection of river vessels and carefully planned voyages along some of the world’s most remote or iconic rivers.Guests travelling by river will enjoy the most comfortable way of exploring, relax and absorb the landscape whilst appreciating the subtle changes of the passing countryside and architecture.
Whilst embarking on your leisurely journey aboard one of our river vessels you will enjoy comfortable cabins, spacious public areas, delicious food, welcoming crew members and informative Guest Speakers to enrich your trip.
With numerous river vessels to choose from we’re sure you will find a suitable vessel for your next river cruise. Whether you choose the SS Misr; a spacious, five-star deluxe propeller steam vessel, offering wonderful views of the Nile, a cruise along the Mississippi aboard a vessel with an authentic paddlewheel, a journey along the mighty Braham putra aboard the delightful Charaidew with just 24 guests, or something closer to home aboard the MS Royal Crown as she navigates the Danube.
