Trafalgar will expand into river cruising in spring 2026, launching two itineraries along the Rhine and Danube. This marks the company’s entry into the river cruise market, with both journeys available for booking from today through travel partners, ahead of public sales.
The first two itineraries include an eight-day Danube cruise aboard the 128-passenger Trafalgar Reverie, and a 10-day Rhine itinerary aboard the 128-passenger Trafalgar Verity. Both routes will feature guided excursions, guest-hosted dining experiences, and onboard programmes focused on culture, sustainability, and wellness.
The Best of the Danube itinerary runs from Budapest to Passau, and includes guided visits in Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna, as well as a hosted meal at Weingut Nikolaihof, one of Austria’s oldest wineries. The itinerary also includes a visit in Bratislava focused on post-war history. Optional extensions in Prague and Budapest are available. Prices start at US$2,799 per person, based on double occupancy.
The Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam itinerary travels from Basel to Amsterdam, with scheduled stops including Cologne, the Rhine Gorge and Strasbourg. Guests will join the Bohrer family for a hosted meal on their farm and visit Weinessiggut Doktorenhof for a vinegar production experience. An optional extension in Lucerne is also offered.
Rates start at US$3,399 per person, based on double occupancy.
Both vessels will offer seven cabin categories, onboard activities and facilities, and are scheduled to begin sailing from April 11, 2026.
