LUXURY ON WATER

THREE SHIPS FOR YOUR LUCK

Do you enjoy personalized service? Do you appreciate the interplay of culture and nature as much as an uncompromising culinary experience? Do you love the fusion of space and time and are you looking for experiences that you will talk about for years to come? And yes, you like it sophisticated? Then there's a good chance that a river cruise in Europe with Riverside Luxury Cruises will be the trip of a lifetime. Our ships are second to none - and they make guests happy. Take a look at the Mozart - the first ship in our fleet, it's something special.

Mozart

Danube

The Riverside Mozart is an exceptional vessel. As the largest and most luxurious river cruise ship on the Danube, she, like her famous namesake, knows how to captivate and surprise her guests.

TO THE MOZART

Ravel

Rhone

He was considered meticulous and obsessed with detail. His famous Boléro is an idiosyncratic composition that nevertheless appeals to a wide range of tastes. The Riverside Ravel bears his name with good reason. Like the Boléro, it glides slowly along the Rhône and Saône rivers in a steady rhythm. Curious? Great! We work hard to put together the best trips for you.

TO THE RAVEL

Debussy

Rhine

He was a charmer. Poetry and charm characterized his work. His compositions were considered to be the beginning of a "new music" and the tours with the Riverside Debussy can also be seen as the beginning of a new kind of river cruise on the Rhine. Are you curious? Great! We are working at full speed to put together the most beautiful trips for you.

TO THE DEBUSSY

OUR SERVICE PROMISE

When you book a cruise with Riverside Luxury Cruises, you experience unparalleled luxury. Amazement in every suite. The finest fabrics and materials. Every guest enjoys butler service – and an incredible amount of space.

French Fête in Saone and Rhône: From Lyon to AvignonNew
One ship, 2 rivers, 8 days—and countless memories! This grand journey introduces you to two of France's greatest rivers: the Saône and the Rhône—as well as Burgundy, Provence, and the Camargue, the country's largest wetlands reserve! Embark in 2,000-year-old Lyon with its secret covered Traboules (passageways) zig-zagging around the city and world-renowned foodie culture. Then, cruise along the Saône in Riverside luxury, encountering unforgettable gems in Art Nouveau Chalon-sur-Saône; Tournus, whose "location, location, location" made it easy to defend; and Mâcon, where a Louis XV-era apothecary—and its heavy walnut drawers devoted to opium, ivory, silk, cocoon, and other unusual products—offers a peek at 18th-century medicine. Traveling south, enter the waters of the legendary Rhône to discover just what makes this region so special: ancient Vienne and Viviers, France's tiniest city; pretty, Provençal Tarascon; Vincent Van Gogh's beloved Arles, where the artist prolifically captured the area's allure on canvas more than 200 times; and far-south Port St. Louis, where the river meets the sea. Riverside also lets you select activities for a more personal experience, like a day trip to Burgundy's Beaujolais wine region, iconic Aix-en-Provence, or the Camargue with its pink flamingos and wild horses. For the chance to get out and really get moving, active excursions include kayaking and sightseeing by eBike. Last, but certainly not least, is scenic evening cruising through the beautiful Rhône Delta—très magnifique!NOTE:This cruise includes a RIVERSIDE HIGHLIGHT EXCLUSIVE sunset dinner at Château de Panéry winery, featuring fabulous food, music, and, of course, free-flowing wine!
