River Cruises

River Cruises are a popular way to see countries in a relaxed and easy environment.  If you want a more intimate experience of cruising, a river cruise will allow you to enjoy some of the most breathtaking sights at an easy-going pace and at a closer range with an ever-changing scenery on both sides of the river. If you take in a European River Cruise you will cruise on some of the longest rivers in Europe such as the River Rhine, Seine and Danube giving you a perfect opportunity to explore some of the oldest and historical cities.

A romantic Rhine River Cruise is a fantastic way to explore Germany and Holland. With views of mountains and medieval towns lining the river, like Rudesheim and Koblenz and a chance to see the famous Lorelei rock, a Rhine River Cruise is sure to be a most memorable one.

A delightful River Cruise on the Seine will of course give you such sights and famous landmarks as the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Notre Dame Cathedral as well as the Louvre and Grand Palais to name but a few. Or you may want to cruise along the Russian River Volga giving you a chance to traverse the huge Volga-Baltic waterway, a river cruise is the perfect way to see this mysterious country.

A combination of the modern city of Shanghai and the historical city of Beijing is the essence of a Yangtze River Cruise giving you a real insight into diverse China. The Yangtze River (Chang Jiang) gives you the chance to visit the Three Gorges Hydroelectric River Dam, which spans the Yangtze River and is the largest dam in the world, more than 5 times the size of Hoover Dam.
