River travel has been growing in popularity for the past few years with more and more families taking that option for their first family cruise or their annual retreat, and more than ever so when going to Europe.
Even though it can be very luxurious, European river travel is usually cheaper then a similar ocean bound cruise, even if it offers more variety and what many would call a far more interesting experience. Especially for families, a cruise in Europe can offer a lot of fantastic attractions and distractions, for a lower price than a similar sea cruise.
For instance, a week traveling down the magnificent Rhine River, savoring the attractions and the culture of Switzerland, France, Germany and the Benelux, possibly with a few days on a side trip to another city close by, is not going to cost more than a comparable cruise in the Caribbean.
Leaving for European river travels usually entails flying out to a city, either a medium-sized one or a capital, to the departure point to meet the ship that will take you down the chosen waterway on the main leg of your trip.
European river travel will take you through some of the most beautiful cities in the region's countries, and by traveling in style you will take your own floating five star hotel along, with a service to boot.
You will in fact find that while the cruise ships plying European rivers are much smaller then their seagoing cousins, for obvious reasons, they are just as comfortable and well-furnished, with amenities to boot.
The restaurant are in a high quality boat intended for European river travel will be furnished with finest linens, cutlery and plates, and the cuisine is sure to match the decor. And the rooms will be similarly decked out, with furniture and decorations to match your discerning taste.

The specifics of European river travel will result in you having a more cultured and memorable experience.
