River Cruising and Barging Vacations with Europa Travel and Tours

River Cruising and Barging Vacations

Imagine having the luxury to travel through Europe and never having to pack and unpack your bags!

From ancient times to the present, Europe's rivers have connected the lives of towns and villages that are built along the banks and now you can experience this from a luxurious ship in first class comfort. As your river cruise ship winds its way past lush vineyards, historic buildings and incredible landscapes you will find yourself at the doorstep of where some of Europe’s most celebrated cities came to life.

History unfolded along Europe's calm waterways with castles built high on the hills for protection while opulent palaces were located along the rivers to display the families’ fortunes. Churches and monasteries were located close to the waters that provided calming and spiritual well-being. The nobility and aristocracy used the fertile banks to build vineyards and centers of commerce. River cruising today provides a glimpse into this past where you can experience the luxury, elegance and history of life along the riverbanks.

A river cruise can be a complete vacation including airfare, cruise accommodations in a spacious outside cabin, all shore excursions, all inclusive dining and all land transfers. Or you can combine a river cruise and a land vacation with cruises that have as little as 3 nights.

The choice is yours and Europa Travel & Tours will guide you through the options and find the right cruise for you. We take pride in matching our clients' lifestyle to the right vacation for a rewarding and relaxing holiday. River cruising is also a perfect group getaway - call us for special group prices.
