Are You Ready To River?

Hello River Lovers,

To keep a thousand family members occupied for a week on the open seas you NEED swimming pools, a gym, theatre productions, kids' entertainment and multiple dining options; the ship itself has to be the destination, but that’s not the case when you’re cruising a river.


When you’re navigating through a country, as opposed to around it, the constantly changing destination provides its own entertainment. Every day the captain hits "pause" so you can jump ashore (literally, no terminals here!) and enjoy another immersive experience.  

This means the ships and their crew have only one responsibility; making sure that your every need is catered for when you’re on board. That's priceless, and
 just one reason why we LOVE river cruising, but if that isn’t enough here are four more to whet your appetite before we reveal some of this week’s “Plan A Cruise Month” specials from Holiday World.

Enjoy your weekend,
Narelle
  
#1: The Service
Fewer passengers onboard means no queues and far more attentive, personal service. If you ask for Champagne with your breakfast on Day 1 you can bet it’ll be offered to you on Day 2.
#2: The Destinations
Want to explore? There will be a local guide, who knows the area inside out and back to front, who will show you where to go and what to see. You'll never waste a moment wondering. That's Dale, me and Mike, taking the a few shots of the scenery during an Olive Farm visit in France.
  
#3: The Local Touch
That local touch can't be beaten... Fresh produce comes on board every day, so as you pass through different areas you’ll find the cuisine – and the wine – changing to reflect those unique characteristics and there's always time for a coffee and a pastry.
#4: The Serenity
Smooth sailing serenity. River boats move along in near silence, and with no swell/waves to speak of you’ll hardly know you’re moving. With only a few like-minded guests you won’t find it hard to relax and take in the spectacular views enroute. This is Cochem; a traveller's favourite on  Moselle River.
