River Cruises Crafted Around You
Why Choose a River Cruise?
Unlike ocean cruising, river cruises bring you directly into the heart of the world’s most iconic destinations, docking right in historic city centers and storybook towns that ocean liners simply can’t reach. Imagine stepping off your ship and walking straight into Vienna’s café culture or exploring the cobbled lanes of Porto without long transfers or crowds. Our experienced travel advisors specialize in European river cruises, Asian river journeys, and luxury small-ship sailings designed for travelers who want to immerse themselves in authentic local culture while enjoying comfort and convenience. Whether you dream of drifting along the Danube, Rhine, Douro, Mekong, or Nile River, we’ll carefully match you with the perfect river cruise itinerary, cruise line, and stateroom category to suit your style, interests, and budget.

Where Will the River Take You?
Europe
Glide past medieval castles on the Rhine River, sip wines in Portugal’s Douro Valley, or stroll through magical Christmas Markets along the Danube. European river cruises offer an unparalleled blend of history, culture, and scenery — from France’s Burgundy vineyards to Hungary’s grand architecture. Whether you’re seeking a romantic getaway or a multi-country adventure, a European river cruise lets you experience the continent’s highlights effortlessly.
Asia
Explore the ancient temples of Angkor Wat on a Mekong River cruise, or witness daily life unfold along Myanmar’s Irrawaddy River. Asian river cruises provide a window into centuries of history and tradition while offering world-class hospitality and cuisine. From the floating markets of Vietnam to Cambodia’s serene countryside, our advisors help you design a journey that blends culture, adventure, and luxury.
Africa
Combine wildlife and wonder on a Nile River cruise paired with a luxury Egyptian safari or land tour. Walk in the footsteps of pharaohs, visit the Valley of the Kings, and sail between Luxor and Aswan aboard a boutique ship that redefines elegance.

For fewer crowds and better value, consider shoulder seasons like April or November, especially if you’re dreaming of Danube Christmas Market cruises or autumn foliage along the Rhine River.

Ideally, book 9–12 months in advance to secure the best staterooms, exclusive offers, and flight options.

Early planning with a travel advisor also gives you access to group rates, added amenities, and early-booking incentives.
