Amadeus River Cruises

A new season is upon us, and before you turn the page in our new 2026 brochure, pause for a moment. Perhaps we’ve met before, or perhaps this is your first time meeting everyone here at AMADEUS luxury river cruises. Either way, something led you here. A spark of curiosity? A desire to dream a little bigger?

Embarking on an AMADEUS river cruise opens a world of refined travel that surpasses the idea of a holiday. Just a few hours aboard one of our 5-star ships and you’ll know that a life-changing adventure is about to begin. Let the river take you to places that live only in fairy tales: castles, charming villages, vineyards, cobbled streets, and iconic European cities. Each day brings a new experience – one that becomes part of your story.

Our 5-star, tailor-made river cruising is designed with you in mind – from award-winning service and elegant surroundings, to generous extras like up to €200 per person onboard credit to spend on your choice of optional shore excursions, wellness treatments, bar drinks and refreshments, onboard laundry services or purchases from our onboard gift shop.

Curiosity sparks every traveller to see more, to venture further, to seek out new places and horizons. We’re excited to introduce AMADEUS Aurea, setting sail in 2026. Taking our signature design even further, this remarkable new ship combines cutting-edge technology with a sophisticated sense of style.

New discoveries await on our summer sailing, “The Best of Holland & Belgium”, as well as on our themed cruises, where you can indulge your passion for golf or classical music.

Ready to turn the page into a new chapter of your life? Let us show you the world as you’ve never seen it – and how you’ve always dreamt it to be.

Travel Trends

Why it’s trending: No-fly cruises from UK ports like Southampton, Dover, and Tilbury are on the rise as travellers seek convenience and sustainability. Skipping the airport cuts hassle for families, makes travel easier for cruisers, and reduces the carbon footprint - all while offering the same world-class cruise experience right from the UK.

Why it’s trending: British travellers love value, and cruise lines are stepping up with all-inclusive pricing. Drinks, Wi-Fi, tips, and even excursions are bundled in, taking the guesswork out of budgets and making holidays smoother and more enjoyable.

Why it’s trending: Expedition cruising is booming as UK travellers seek adventure with a touch of luxury. Small ships and expert guides open up remote destinations like the Arctic and Galápagos, offering intimate, once-in-a-lifetime experiences far from the usual tourist trail.

Why it’s trending: Travellers want more than just a getaway – they’re seeking meaning, connection, and stories to share. With wellness retreats, culinary voyages, and themed sailings, cruises are evolving into richer, more experiential journeys.

Why it’s trending: Younger travellers are reshaping cruising, seeking wellness, flexibility, and authentic experiences over tradition. Boutique, luxury, and river cruises stand out with immersive itineraries and a personalised touch.
