Many now enjoy a floating holiday to Europe aboard the numerous vessels sailing along the celebrated rivers and around the islands in the region, including the Rhine, Seine, Douro, and of course the Danube, as well as the Caledonian Canal and The Hebrides.
It is clear to see why these trips are so popular, with 4* and 5* vessels offering a very high standard of accommodation, as well as exceptional and regional food. Travelling at a leisurely pace, the ships meander through some of the best scenery Europe has to offer, frequently with the opportunity to visit multiple countries.
Often these cruises begin and end in different locations, which allows the possibility to add a pre and post tour stay to the trips you offer, thereby extending the vacation and adding value to the tour you promote. This can be anything from accommodation for the night before boarding the ship, to a 7 night tailor-made tour of a region including accommodation, meals, motor coach, local attractions and guides.
Here at Norman Allen Group Travel, we have extensive experience in operating the land arrangements for these tours for our clients, and would welcome the opportunity to discuss your specific requirements. With trusted partners throughout the UK and Europe, we are able to design your unique cruise add on for you and your travellers.
In addition, for many years we have partnered with the respected cruise company Croisi Europe for those clients wanting to book the voyage element with us too. They offer river cruising throughout mainland Europe in conventional ships, as well as barges for smaller groups sailing the canals. They also operate small ocean-going vessels which sail through the Adriatic, Mediterranean and Atlantic, offering trips to Croatia, the Greek Islands and Morocco.
