Find answers to some of the most common questions about river cruising here.
Some river cruises between Mainz and Nuremberg encounter low bridges and locks, so parts of the Sun Deck have to be closed for safety reasons. However, this cruise is unaffected by these restrictions so that guests can enjoy uninterrupted access to the Sun Deck at all times on their journey.
There is complementary Wi-Fi available on board all our European river cruise ships. Sometimes, connectivity can be affected by terrain or even weather events, but on the majority of our European voyages, coverage is pretty consistent and uninterrupted, meaning you can stay in touch with your friends back home.
UK citizens do not require a visa to enter France or Germany, but you will need a valid passport. Our friendly booking team can signpost you to the correct information if you have concerns about your travel documents. It is the responsibility of the passengers to ensure they comply with all entry and immigration requirements.
