What does a river cruise mean to you?
For some, it could mean plying the waters of Europe and seeing the Fairytale Castles perched intermittently atop the sprawling hills of the Rhine river valley.
For others, it could mean visiting the small, local villages of Vietnam, interacting with the school children or riding a rickshaw through the crazy streets of Hanoi. Or possibly seeing the impressive UNESCO World Heritage Site of Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
Yes, you can do that to!
As a novice ocean cruiser would tend to begin their cruise career in the Caribbean, most beginner river cruisers will start with either the Rhine or the Danube. And these are absolutely the best places to start. But, don’t be so naive as to think your cruising career will end there. There is so much more to discover beyond these magnificent European rivers. A river cruise invites you to see our world without politics or borders.
If you are looking for the “next big thing” in river cruising, you will not be disappointed to hear how much more of the world you can see from the top deck of a river cruise.
Here are some more ideas to get the creative juices flowing for your next river cruise adventure:
- The Douro through Portugal and Spain
- The Po through Northern Italy
- The Seine, the Rhone and The Dordogne in France
- The Irawaddy in Myanmar
- The Ganges in India
- The Mekong in Cambodia and Vietnam
- The Imperial Waterways of Russia

- And closer to home - the Colombia and Snake rivers
- Don’t forget the mighty Mississippi river too!
