Find answers to some of the most common questions about river cruising here.
Travel documents are sent via email approximately two to three weeks before your departure date. Always read and check them carefully, as additional information may be required to finalise the booking.
Most of our itineraries begin with a transfer from the nearest airport. We can recommend appropriate flight times when you book. Some guests choose to fly in early and spend a few days before the cruise commences, so we can provide a date and time to meet your travel rep before boarding. Our European cruise ships are available for early boarding, passengers can access the public areas, and luggage can be stored at reception. Cabins and suites are available from 3 p.m.
River levels alter throughout the year depending on the season and the weather, so sometimes, itineraries have to change if parts of the river are not navigable or port stops are inaccessible. APT has nearly a century of cruise experience and can adjust itineraries to reflect the demands of the river and always find a worthy replacement for a shore excursion of comparable enjoyment and interest.
Let us know when you make your reservation, and our gourmet chefs will endeavour to accommodate your specific dietary requirements. Food on board our vessels is prepared daily and includes vegan and vegetarian options.
Internet access is usually available on all our vessels but can be affected by specific geographies or remote locations. Check with your booking agent, who will be able to advise if there are areas of the cruise where coverage is poor so you can plan accordingly.
Guests can bring prescription medication on their cruise, and this should be kept in its original packaging with the label and name clearly visible. Always check with your GP before you travel so that you have enough medication with you for your planned time away.
With nearly a century of river cruising experience, it’s safe to say that we know a thing or two about cruises. Relax and enjoy your voyage in luxurious surroundings with every last detail catered for aboard our award-winning vessels. Pick the premier cruise company, APT Touring.
