Magdalena River Cruises
A Magdalena River cruise is a totally unique way to explore Colombia’s natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. Nearly 1,000 miles in length, the Magdalena River is the lifeblood of this South American country, providing access to the Caribbean Sea and serving as a critical transport link throughout the centuries. Discover historic towns and cities like Mompox, with its mix of colonial and Spanish buildings, and Neuva Venecia, Colombia’s equivalent of Venice. Our luxury River Cruise packages combine the colour and heritage of Colombia with Magdalena’s unmatched biodiversity. Add a warm Latin American welcome and a stunning river backdrop for the perfect cruise holiday.

Reasons to Cruise
the Magdalena River
Intriguing Itineraries
Expert guides put together our itineraries, offering cruise guests a selection of the most popular tourist destinations interspersed with some hidden gems and ‘must-see’ seasonal events. If you don’t want to follow one of our guided tours, then explore by yourself.
Mesmerising Menus and Classic Colombian Coffee
Enjoy the authentic flavour of Colombia with regional Latin American dishes made with locally sourced produce, plus a comprehensive wine list with the very best Colombian and international vintages. There are vegan and vegetarian options offered daily, and our gourmet chefs can also accommodate guests on restricted diets, with the only concession being the ingredients rather than taste and flavour.

Stunning Scenery
The Magdalena River is a majestic waterway representing the beating heart of this exotic and vibrant South American country. It is a connector of cities and a vital element in Colmbia’s heritage and history, as well as a haven for wildlife and countless species of birds. The inspiration for some of Colombia’s most important literature perfectly captured by writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Magdalena weaves together lush jungle and colonial towns embodied in a unique literary genre called Magic Realism, an enduring symbol of Colombia’s utter uniqueness.

Magdalena River Cruises FAQ
Can your chefs cater to passengers who require tailored diets or have allergies?
There is a wide range of daily menus, including vegan and vegetarian dishes. We also cook fresh menus for passengers with allergies, food intolerances, or special diets – just let us know your requirements when you book. We pride ourselves on offering authentic local cuisine, which reflects the regional menus of the area we’re sailing through, and use local produce as much as possible. Passengers with restricted diets will be offered the same standard of freshly cooked food without compromising flavour and taste.
Are the vessels adapted for people with limited mobility?
All our cruisers provide access for guests with physical restrictions or mobility issues. We’ll select the best cabin for your needs and talk you through every element of the boat and different port itineraries. We leave no stone unturned to ensure every passenger enjoys the full cruise experience, and we’ll make modifications ahead of your embarkation date. Many of our vessels also offer interconnecting staterooms, perfect for passengers who need assistance from a family member or friend.
What are the latest regulations on Covid-19 vaccinations?
Check with one of our expert booking team when you make your reservation. We’ll stay in touch and let you know if anything changes between the booking and your cruise dates. We follow the latest Covid guidance from the World Health Organisation and stay up-to-date with local rules in the regions we sail through. Our on-board staff are all fully vaccinated.
Do I need a visa for a Magdalena River Cruise?
You will need a visa, and you’ll be responsible for arranging your own visa. It’s best to do this well ahead of your holiday in case of any delays. Our booking team can talk you through the basics of applying for a visa when you make your reservation.
