No inside cabins
Relax on your balcony or open your full length windows as the landscapes change from place to place. Wake up to a different view everyday; because there's nothing more relaxing than rising with the sun...
Fewer passengers
Forget the hustle and bustle of larger liners and get to know your fellow passengers as you all sail the waterway of your choice. A quick and easy disembarkation means maximum time ashore!
Smaller ships
Easier navigation around these luxury cruising vessels makes for a more intimate river cruising experience. Plus, you can enjoy a more attentitive service.
