  The classic Danube is calling your name

  Image Source

  It’s classic, beautiful and there’s more to it than most people think.We’re talking about the Danube river (though you’re all those things, as well).Folks think they know her, because they think of the waters that flow from Germany, past Vienna and Bratislava, toward Budapest. This stretch is a perfect introduction to Europe, with plenty of depth for return visitors as well.Stroll the cobbled streets of storybook villages, let your jaw drop at stunning abbeys and cathedrals, and soak in the history of long-standing capital cities. And don’t forget to sample the pastries, sausages and beer while you’re at it.But there’s another side of her personality, one that invites you to step over the threshold of the familiar, and explore countries that you haven’t yet ticked off your list.The lower Danube winds down through Serbia, forms much of the border between Romania & Bulgaria, and ends at the Black Sea. You’ll find yourself bathed in a different era of history, which shaped these towns as recently as a few decades ago.The fascinating eastern Danube will fill your mental suitcase with souvenirs that may challenge what you thought you knew of Europe.Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?

  The Rhine is a great sampler for you

  Image Source

  A little of each? Don’t mind if you do.The Rhine river will fill your travel platter with a spoonful each of Switzerland, Germany, France, and Holland.Running from Basel out to Amsterdam, the Rhine suits those who like a bit of variety.Bustling capital cities with tons of culture? Check.Quaint fairytale villages? Got ‘em.Beautiful hillsides dotted with so many castles you could tire of looking at them? Yes (and don’t be silly).While the Rhine is an ideal starting place for those new to river cruising, it’s got plenty for more experienced cruisers to take in, as well. Hiking & biking, history & modern vibes, beer & wine, sausages & stroopwafels....you can’t do it all in one sailing, so you’d better come back again.Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?

  Right at home on the Rhône

  Image Source

  Exquisite, tasteful, refined, a certain joie de vivre.Wait, are we talking about you, or the Rhône river?Flowing through Lyon, past Avignon and Arles to the Mediterranean, this river takes you through the rolling hills of Provence and immerses you in the history and culture of the region.You love France?Have your fill in the foodie capital of Lyon, pick up a bottle at a Beaujolais vineyard, and hum “Pont d’Avignon” as you sail past said bridge. Bring a box of macarons back to your stateroom from the food hall in Avignon, or carry a baguette in your backpack, just because you can. Drink in the scenery as you pass through some of the most storied departments of France, because you’ll find yourself dreaming of it when you’re back home.Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?

  The Douro is ready for you.

  Image Source

  You don't always follow the crowd, do you?We like that about you.This “river of gold” in Portugal is a precious thing, indeed, and you’re ready to add it to your impressive collection of travel gems.Running inland from the seaside city of Porto (yes, as in port wine) toward Spain, a cruise on the Douro gives you lots of opportunities to learn about the regional wines and delicacies.The architecture found in the cities and villages along this river will impress even those who don’t normally notice such things.When you return home, you’ll be wistful for the food you had onboard and onshore, like presunto (smoked hams) and chouriço (spicy sausages), and pastéis de nata (a buttery pastry with a rich custard filling).Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?

  Must try the Moselle.

  Image Source

  You seem like the type to duck into tiny bookshops, or climb a hill for the view.The prettiest river nobody’s heard of, the Moselle is perfect for people who want to try something a little different.Running between the Germany-Luxembourg border at Trier and the Rhine river at Koblenz, castles and wine are hallmarks of this river.You’ll enjoy sailing past and tasting from the vineyards that are as numerous as the castles on the hills.Peaceful, beautiful, and certainly the river less traveled than its hog-the-spotlight nearby cousins, the Moselle will bring you plenty of scenes to daydream about (with a glass of Riesling in your hand, perhaps).Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?

If you’re a bit of a mechanical or engineering nerd, you’ll marvel at the network of Delta Works, Opt for a springtime vacation, and be treated to the tulips in bloom.Now that you know the river, do you know which cruise line would suit you best?I do!!!Where are my manners?
