A river cruise allows you to explore a destination in depth, visiting smaller river ports on purpose built, luxurious river cruise ships. Travelling with hundreds, not thousands of fellow passengers you will be spoilt with fine dining and superb onboard amenities. Virtually all staterooms have a river/shore view and are well appointed. Entertainment can be found in conversing with fellow passengers, lectures, or a culturally enriching show. A range of shore excursions are often included in your fare.
