Consider exploring Europe on river cruisers or barges. Travelling Europe’s inland rivers, tributaries and canals is one of the most leisurely, delightful ways to travel within the continent.
From the top deck or your panoramic window, you will see riverfronts and landscapes that you might miss from the seat of a car or bus. On port stops, disembark in the heart of river towns and take off immediately to walk along medieval streets, taste wine and browse local markets and shops.
