New Vacation Trend: Discount River Cruises

River cruises are unique vacations that have recently exploded in popularity. Why limit yourself to the coastal regions visited by big cruise ships? Sail instead in an intimate setting aboard a cozy and beautifully appointed riverboat that provides the luxury of today with the feeling of past eras. Once you try one, you'll be hooked, and with a secret source, you'll pay less than you think.

Here are some of the most popular destinations for river cruises.

See the Heart of Europe
European river cruises can take you to the landscape that inspired Van Gogh along the Rhine, or to the birthplace of Impressionism along the Seine. Experience the winding Danube in Germany and Austria and Hungary, and many more appealing itineraries. Whichever trip you choose, a European river cruise will show you some of the world's most interesting and important sites.

Classic North America
Travel the great Mississippi to see the river that inspired Mark Twain. North American river cruises operate seasonally on intimate riverboats that visit charming riverside towns and on traditional ocean-going vessels that navigate deeper waterways such as Canada's storied St. Lawrence Seaway. Other North American destinations include the Columbia River of the Pacific Northwest.
