Planning a European river cruise can feel surprisingly overwhelming once you start researching. With more than 24 major cruise operators and hundreds of ships sailing across Europe, many river cruises can initially seem very similar. But during our research, we discovered something important… The river itself often shapes the experience just as much as the cruise line. In this video, we compare some of Europe’s major river cruise regions including: • Rhine • Danube • Seine • Moselle • Dutch & Belgian Waterways • Douro • Bordeaux • Guadalquivir • Main River • Elbe We explore: scenery atmosphere destinations best time to visit who each river may suit best and why choosing the RIGHT river may be one of the most important decisions when planning a European river cruise.
