Enjoy the fabulous dining experience in the sleek and serene restaurant, sampling the exquisite cuisine served to you by your ever attentive and friendly crew. And, in the evening, once you’ve enjoyed your meal, you can appreciate the sea breeze from the atmospheric outside terrace area with a night cap.

As you step on board, there’s an instant feeling of grandeur. With a maximum of 38 guests on board, your dedicated crew will be at your service throughout. Enjoy the spacious and stylish sun deck, discover a secluded spot to read a book, enjoy a relaxing dip in the hot tub or sit back, relax and unwind with a cool refreshing drink from the bar as you enjoy unimpeded panoramic views of the unspoilt landscapes of the Adriatic coastline. There’s chance to keep up your fitness routine in the on-board gym area or enjoy a quick dip from the swimming platform in one of the secluded bays’ crystal clear waters.

Thanks to the ship’s small size, your shore excursions are far more personal and rewarding.

The sun deck features a selection of comfortable chairs and sun loungers, both in and out of the shade, plus a hot tub. Relax on the sun deck and enjoy magnificent views from all directions. 

We want to ensure you make the correct choice before you book your holiday with us. If you have any concerns regarding the suitability of the holiday due to reduced mobility we would encourage you to contact us or call us on 01283 688 518 to discuss these concerns.

Mooring

Due to the popularity of river cruising at some mooring places, or where our ship is moored alongside another vessel, access to the ship may be via the sun deck and require the navigation of steps so passengers must be able to walk on and off the ship themselves, without the use of crutches or other aids, as gangplanks can be positioned at a steep angle.

On board

Our ships are not adapted for wheelchair access; if you are intending to take a wheelchair or mobility scooter with you, it is essential that you please contact us to let us know. Wheelchairs and mobility scooters can be used on excursions however cannot be used on board the ships due to safety reasons and must not be left in corridors, the lounge or restaurant or any other public areas, but must be stored at reception.

River cruises operate with a smaller crew than ocean cruises and do not have the crew available to personally attend to passengers with reduced mobility; therefore, a travelling companion would need to be able to help with any physical needs.

Whilst most of our ships have a lift on board, it does not operate to all decks.

River cruising on European rivers offers the opportunity to take in the scenery from the comfort of the ship. If you are unable to do some of the shore excursions, your river cruise can still be enjoyable and worthwhile, so please contact us with any concerns or questions you may have.
