River Cruising
View all riversWith almost thirty years experience of operating river cruises and with continuous growing demand we have increased our portfolio each year to offer cruises all over the world. Exploring by river vessel is, to our minds, one of the most comfortable means possible and allows what could be otherwise tiring and demanding itineraries to be accomplished with ease. All you have to do is unpack once and let your hotel glide along waterways which, by their very geography, have been the centre of history and in many cases have influenced the development of the region through which they flow. You may travel through several countries, visit idyllic villages and fascinating towns and cities, and all the while, every detail is taken care of, from formalities of border crossings to sumptuous meals and information on what to see and do in the next port of call. Expert, English-speaking local guides provide insider insights into local culture, architecture, history and traditions and to help you make the most of it all, guest speakers will provide entertaining and informative talks as you sail along. They will be constantly available for informal chats, sharing their expertise and anecdotes, as well as accompanying you onshore. Whilst onboard you will find yourself among like-minded people in an English-speaking environment but still always free to explore at your own pace as well as having meticulously organised excursions to make the most of the fascinating places you have come to see.
