Why choose spring for a river cruise?
River cruising is a treat all year round. But there’s something about the spring that makes it feel that little bit more special. Enjoy the blush of spring on one of Europe’s most stunning waterways. Leave your jackets inside your cosy cabin or suite and head out on deck to relax in the milder temperatures of March, April and May.
"The experience on board was first class with all the crew helpful, polite and caring. The food was fabulous with something for everyone. Cabin roomy, bed really comfortable and spotlessly clean. Rotterdam and Keukenhof amazing."

Enjoy the blush of spring on one of Europe’s most stunning waterways. Leave your jackets inside your cosy cabin or suite and head out on deck to relax in the milder temperatures of March, April and May. You could pass vine-covered hillsides producing world-renowned wines, and fields covered in a fragrant carpet of lavender fields along the Rhône. Visit the City of Love - the French capital, Paris - on a cruise through the heart of Normandy or meander through deepest Provence, to Arles (a city so beautiful it inspired Van Gogh, who painted his famous ‘Sunflowers’ piece here). Perhaps marvel at the Dutch bulb fields in thriving bursts of purple and yellows during a 5-day trip on the Dutch waterways.
The Douro region in Portugal is another place thriving in the Spring. Sit on the sundeck as medieval villages pass you by and stop at vineyards and taste some superb wines. It's quite quiet this time of year too – hint, hint – making it all that more relaxing. Or drift down the Danube, following in Mozart’s footsteps into the show-stopping heart of Vienna and finishing off your tour in the Pearl of the Danube (Budapest), enjoying an evening Gala dinner topped with a Hungarian folklore show accompanied by an after-dinner digestif. Egészségedre (cheers)!
