River Cruising

Updated: Aug 20, 2021

In the past River Cruising may have been thought of as something only for the older generations. But with the River Cruises of the European Christmas Markets that has been changing, and now Adventures by Disney's 2021 offerings look incredible!


Take a look at some of the info below!


Adventures by Disney sails with AmaWaterways, a luxury river cruise line. These are all-inclusive vacations designed by family travel experts at Disney. You will have Adventure Guides who combine active and immersive experiences to give you an authentic experience in each destination along with Disney's signature incredible customer service.


ABD is offering 30 sailings along four European rivers: the Danube, Rhine, Rhone and Seine.


You can do these with your children OR you can take advantage of the adult-exclusive sailings offered for guests 18 years and older that are offered on select sailings. (And include excursions and themes geared toward adults - like Oktoberfest).


Danube River sailings visit eight destinations in Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary. You'll get to explore medieval ruins, cross treetop rope bridges and see the hills from The Sound of Music! (Everyone knows where I'll be this winter!)

If that's not your thing you can check out the description of the Rhine River cruises! (They get me right from the top with "Storybook Villages."


"On Rhine River cruises, guests explore storybook villages in Switzerland, France, Germany and the Netherlands. Highlights include a toboggan ride through the black forest, high-adrenaline thrills at an indoor winter park, horseback riding through the French countryside and a voyage through the Upper Middle Rhine Valley offering up-close views of 30 majestic castles." 


As an add-on guests on 2021 Rhine River sailings can travel to Papenburg, Germany for a look at the construction of the fifth Disney Cruise Line ship - Disney Wish where you'll get a tour with a Disney Imagineer and a behind-the-scenes look!


Rhone River vacations go through the south of France and bring guests to Provence. Excursions include an art workshop inspired by Vincent Van Gogh, a private truffle-hunting experience and tasting, and kayaking beneath a 2,000-year-old Roman aqueduct.


(I'm SO there for the Provence and art workshop, but not sure if I'm brave enough to kayak beneath the Roman aqueduct. Anyone out there who is braver than me who wants to try it and report back?)



Seine River cruises celebrate rural France with visits to provincial towns, the beaches of Normandy, Monet’s House and Gardens, the cliffs of Etretat, and Paris.


There are also awesome pre and post cruise itinerary enhancements in Paris, Amsterdam, and Budapest that you can add on to a trip or book on their own!

Adventures by Disney River Cruises are truly incredible! Contact me for more info, and don't forget to subscribe to the mailing list!
