Riviera River Cruises is now offering a 50% discount on all 2026 European river cruise departures in celebration of the launch of sales for that year, as well as the announcement of a new ship, five new themed itineraries, and a new departure exclusively for solo travelers.

Through Dec. 15, 2024, book an eight-day itinerary for $1,999 per person based on double occupancy instead of $3,999, for example, or an itinerary of 11 days or more for $3,799 instead of $7,599.

“For a limited time, we’re celebrating our 2026 European river cruise collection with a deep discount,” said Marilyn Conroy, Executive Vice President Sales and Marketing North America for Riviera River Cruises. “Whether it’s a classic itinerary like The Blue Danube, an extended itinerary like the Grand Cruise Through the Heart of Europe to the Black Sea, a new themed itinerary or a cruise aboard the new Riviera Resplendence, you can book any 2026 departure for half price. And when it comes time to board, you’ll also enjoy stylish and spacious accommodations, welcoming local guides and all-inclusive drinks between 10 a.m. and midnight.”

New for 2026 is the 178-guest Riviera Resplendence with a third restaurant and Riviera’s largest-ever suites; the new Gardens & Natural Beauty of the Rhine, Gastronomy of the Danube, Gastronomy of the Rhine & Moselle, Gastronomy of the Seine and Music & Art of the Blue Danube themed itineraries; and the Medieval Germany for Solo Travelers itinerary.

Riviera River Cruises offers a variety of cruises on rivers and waterways across Europe, including dedicated departures for solo travelers with no single supplement, as well as themed and holiday season itineraries. Its cruises include fine dining experiences, a complimentary drinks package and expert-led excursions to iconic sights and hidden gems aboard one of the youngest fleets of ships in Europe, with spacious cabins and suites.

Riviera guarantees exceptional value, promising never to add hidden surcharges or fees, and it doesn’t automatically include gratuities, so the choice is up to guests.
