The decoration is refined and its atmosphere, both elegant and friendly, is in perfect harmony with its environment. The restaurant, located on the upper deck, offers a delicate cuisine in a refined setting. Large windows allow you to fully enjoy the panorama. On this same level is also the lounge / bar with a dance floor, while on the sun deck, an ideal place to relax and admire the landscapes, passengers can enjoy comfortable sun loungers, as well as a large shaded area.

Accommodation

Upon boarding, you will be welcomed by the crew who will help you settle into your cabin. The advantage of cruising is that you will only unpack your suitcase once before you let yourself go to relax and travel!

A tip of €5 to €10 per person per day is a common guideline, but each passenger is, of course, free to give any amount they feel appropriate.

We now offer the possibility to make your own selection of excursions by mixing and matching "Classic" and "Dicovery" excursions for tailor-made packages!

We offer on all our cruises numerous and surprising excursions. You may prefer to stay aboard our cruise ships and enjoy the tranquillity, but we have an extensive range of excursions we offer that are great ways to discover each country in detail. (All excursions are optional)

Always with the help of our guides, you will visit tremendous cities, picturesque landscapes, and great activities with our bike rides, scenic tours, tastings, whole days visits or evenings out to appreciate the cities by night.

To offer you the best experience, we offer classic or discovery excursion packages, the latter offering atypical tours, original themes or even helicopter flights.

Below, and by destination, take a look at the sumptuous tours you could do during your cruise in the most beautiful countries in the world, be that in Europe or beyond.

CroisiEurope cruises began in northern Europe on the Rhine and today we now have more than 40 years of experience. This region of the continent remains one of the most emblematic of our offering. Our ships are still sailing there, taking the course of some of the most legendary rivers in Europe.

Such as the Rhine, which connects the Netherlands to Switzerland, via Germany or France. Many of our cruises take place from Strasbourg to Amsterdam. Once aboard, you will have embarked for a journey in the heart of various cultures and heritages that these countries have to offer.

You will see Amsterdam "The Venice of the North" with its hundreds of canals and numerous bridges, cruising along the river you will find yourself in the heart of the tulip fields before reaching Belgium.

Another cruise on the Rhine will take you from Cologne to Koblenz via Mainz. We offer a wide choice of excursions that will allow you to customise your cruise to only discover what interests you.

Or cruise the river Elbe and travel through Germany and beyond. From Berlin to the unknown countryside of the country before leaving to discover one of the most beautiful cities in the world: Prague, city of gold "the thousand tower and a thousand steeples". Our guides will lead you through the capital and its architecture mixing pre-Romanesque, Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Rococo, Art Nouveau and Cubist styles.

Finally, CroisiEurope invites you to venture further north and discover Scandinavia. Denmark, and its capital Copenhagen by enjoying a cruise on the Oder, departing from Germany to Denmark, your stop in Copenhagen will be with our guides and visits where all the secrets of the capital will be unveiled.

Our wines are selected to accompany each of your meals. We adapt our menus for people with allergies or who are following a specific diet.
