What Can A River Cruise Offer You?

More and more cruise ship passengers are trying out river cruises, isn't a river cruise vessel just a small cruise ship with less facilities? whats good about that?

First of all a ship that sails through the world many rivers cant be too big as the rivers would not be able to accommodate them, cabins on them can be just as luxurious of a large cruise ship cabin:

 

A river cruise is a different to a conventional cruise, for a start you would take a river cruise if you would like to see more of the ports that you visit - you can get closer to the heart of a country on a river cruise, on most itineraries you can make up to 3 stops a day - you can literally sight see all day long!

Many river cruise ships will carry less than 150 passengers, dining is single seating and there is an entertainments programme - clothing is casual and comfortable in the day and more formal on an evening.
