European river cruise vessels more closely resemble a luxurious ocean liner than a small canal barge. With an average capacity of only 150 passengers, our river vessels are significantly smaller than most ships cruising the oceans today, so you'll find a level of service and attention to detail more like a fine boutique hotel than an impersonal large ocean liner.

Our river vessels feature gorgeous contemporary furnishings, modern lounges and bars, and public areas with comfortable seating areas perfect for sharing a glass of wine with new friends. You'll walk through pleasant hallways and generous open stairways while enjoying well-lit surroundings. Several vessels feature a passenger elevator that reaches four levels, and many also offer bicycles for on-shore explorations.

The accommodations aboard these vessels are second to none, and with many options to choose from, you'll find something to meet almost any budget. The most spacious option aboard our ships is the Junior Suite. A rare find on vessels of this size, these junior suites offer incredible comfort and space.

Lovely luxurious staterooms offer modern conveniences and deluxe furnishings. Staterooms are equipped with a TV, Internet access, a safe, hairdryer, air conditioning, and all the amenities of a luxury hotel. Staterooms feature large panoramic windows or French balconies and offer a choice of two twin beds or one queen size bed, all with plush bedding. You'll enjoy supreme comfort, attentive service and fine dining while onboard one of these lovely vessels.

The culinary staff on board offers sophisticated menus comprised of high quality choice cut meats and seafood, the freshest produce, and delicious home-made soups. Enter the restaurant and your Maitre d' welcomes you with a bright smile.

Start your day with a lavish gourmet breakfast. Choose from a rich assortment of breads, croissants and pastries, fresh fruit, yogurt and cereals, smoked salmon, delicious cheeses, cold cuts, and local sausages, completed with the daily regional specials.



Return from your shore excursion and a team of chefs will always delight you with a delicious lunch. Start with mouth-watering hot or cold appetizers and homemade soups, then choose from a selection of great hot entrees. Finish it off with a delectable dessert while enjoying spectacular river views.

In the evening, you are the honored guest for an elegant dinner and on traditional theme night, a feast of regional specialties will delight your taste buds. Enjoy delicious cuisine and complimentary free-flowing wines from the local vintners. The talented kitchen crew knows how to orchestrate a truly memorable dining experience.
