For those individuals that prefer to focus on the destination rather than the ship, river cruising is a wonderful option. With 160 or fewer guests, river ships can maneuver into the heart of locations. In addition, most everything is included so you won't pay extra for shore excursions or beverage packages as you would on ocean cruises. Add this to the convenience of unpacking only once to see multiple countries, and river cruising is a very inviting opportunity.
Most river cruises focus on European rivers such as the Danube, Rhine or Rhone. Although, more recently, rivers in Asia and Africa have been gaining popularity. Traditionally, river cruising was considered an adult activity but now there are several companies that offer family river cruises with directors on board that cater to multi-generational families. Everything from onboard programs to shore excursions are developed with families in mind so every member is engaged and learning about the cultures they visit.
