Every one of our travelers gets the same treatment – crafted and planned vacations to satisfy your traveling desires.
Whether you’re someone who prefers personal comfort or likes a bit of “you time” mixed with the company of like-minded people, there are options for everyone on a solo European river cruise.
Stand on the deck of one of our five-star ships with fellow travelers and soak in the glorious landscapes along the likes of the Rhine and the Blue Danube. Settle into a roomy cabin and get comfortable as our floating hotels take you on spectacular voyages. Swap stories with fellow travelers and make lifelong friends, pointing out the beautiful scenery and stopping at an array of ports along the way. Will you choose a cruise passing through Porto (the home of port wine, so it'd be rude not to have a tipple) or meander along the Seine, stopping in Rouen (one of Europe’s finest medieval cities we may add) and visit the delights of Monet’s Garden – the Japanese inspired water garden. Exquisite.
And through all this, you will be accompanied by a Riviera Travel Cruise Director. They will be your trusted guide on your journey and will look after you throughout, ensuring everything runs smoothly and giving you insider tips on how to spend your spare time ashore, should you need it.
It was my first solo holiday and I've loved every second. I felt very safe, met some lovely people. The ship was beautiful and the staff were wonderful. They were so kind and helpful. The food was delicious and the entertainment was good. I can't praise Riviera Travel enough. Thank you for a fantastic holiday.

"Lovely scenery, good trips, mostly centred around vineyards, and wine tasting."
"Mateus Palace gardens were beautiful. The food and drink on board were excellent, and the staff very attentive and friendly. Our tour manager was excellent, and his daily briefings were clear."
