River Cruises

A river cruise holiday offers a unique and exquisite insight into your chosen holiday destination.

Cosmos River Cruises offer a wide range of river cruises to beautiful European rivers including the Rhine river, the Danube river and many more. We also have river cruise holidays exploring the dramatic landscapes on a Russian River Cruise and the culture of Asia.

Cosmos River Cruises provide the ideal relaxing break at the highest standard for a luxurious and stylish holiday. With over 50 years experience you can trust we have found the best cruising partners to provide you an impeccable holiday. With leading brands such as CrosiEurope to explore the heart of the Danube river and European cities, to Victoria Cruises for a luxury Asian cruise. For information on all our cruise partners such as Flash Tours and Amadeus by Lüftner click here.

River cruises are the perfect way to really immerse yourself into a new culture, being smaller than the traditional ocean liners means river cruises can often get deeper into the city for a real insight into your destinations culture and heart of the town. They also have a smaller number of passengers meaning the staff to passenger ratio is often one staff member to every four passengers, providing an exceptional high quality service.

Most ships feature large panoramic windows to enjoy some of the most outstanding and beautiful landscapes, with ever changing scenic vistas, as you softly meander along the gentle waterways on your river cruise holiday.
