European Rivers

If you have always wondered about a European Rivers Cruise and not quite made up your mind to embark on one, even though friends, family and holiday tour advertisements make them seem oh-so-attractive, here are some points to ponder:

Imagine being in a beautifully decorated cabin that serves as a moving hotel room, from where you can enjoy the sights, sounds, smells and vibrancy of towns you pass by, viewing village cultures close-up without giving up your privacy or luxury.

Imagine not having the hassles of self-drive vacations, jostling for elbowroom on public transport like motor coaches or restricted seating like in holiday special trains that make you feel anything but special.

Imagine having to unpack only once and have designated storage space for your valuables, clothes, shoes and personal items with access to ensuite baths that are cleaned twice daily by personal attendants.

Then consider the gourmet meals, personalized attention of trained cruise staff and great company on a memorable sea vacation while picking up souvenirs, local ways of life, European history and cultural tit-bits apart from sailing the romantic waters of the rivers known to inspire music, arts and the muses: the Rhine, the Danube, the Tisza, the Moselle, the Seine, the Douro, and the Po!

These are just some of the elements that make European River Cruises a great choice for holidaymakers that can spare anywhere from 3 to 30 days for a comfortable, luxurious and absolutely delightful water-based journey that is educational and eye-opening. European Rivers Cruise organizers like Swan Hellenic offer global travellers the chance to tour the heart of Europe with opportunities to learn from distinguished Guest Speakers, like historians and cultural ambassadors who enhance the value of the river-bound journeys for the cruisers along with a selection of shore excursion programmes, all-inclusive on-board meal and entertainment facility besides attractive prices from which one is sure to fit your budget!
