Visa requirements vary by the country you are visiting and by your country of residence and can change at any time. Please check with the official government websites of the countries you will be visiting for the latest information.

Where can I find cabin options?

You can see cabin details and ship plans for cabin locations on our Ship details page. Choose from a Suite, French Balcony, Deluxe or Classic cabin.

How do I book Optional Experiences once onboard?

You can book Optional Experiences with your Experience Director onboard at the start of your River Cruise. These can be charged to your onboard account and paid by credit card (Mastercard, Visa, or American Express). Optional Experiences cannot be reserved before your cruise. Some Optional Experiences require a minimum number of guests to operate, and please note that refunds are not available for cancellations made within 24 hours of the tour start time, or for pre-paid tours. If you're joining a pre- or post-cruise extension, your Experience Director will also be on hand to help you book Optional Experiences and payment is by credit card only, as cash is not accepted.

Can I extend my trip?

Yes, you can choose to extend your trip with our Optional Extensions. Whether you're cruising the Rhine or the Danube, you can add extra nights in remarkable cities before or after your trip. Choose to spend two nights in Lucerne to complement your Rhine journey or extend your Danube trip with two nights in Budapest, Prague, or both. It’s your chance to see even more and make every moment count. See our Optional Extensions on our Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam itinerary page and Best of the Danube itinerary page.

Stroll the old town of Rouen and see the rooms of Château de Malmaison once occupied by Joséphine Bonaparte.
