What's a river cruise?

A river cruise is a cruise that allows you to discover landscapes and cities by navigating inland waterways, such as rivers and canals.

What's the best river cruise?

The best river cruise depends on individual preferences and tastes. A cruise along the Douro Valley, from Lisbon to Porto, is a popular choice for its spectacular wine-growing landscapes. Others, however, might prefer a cruise on the Danube, offering a discovery of historic European cities, or one on the Seine Valley, for its rich cultural and artistic heritage.

Which boats are used for river cruises?

River cruises generally take place aboard barges, flat-bottomed boats specially designed to navigate inland waterways such as rivers and canals, as well as lakes and ponds.
