Elegant Interiors & Fantastic Food
Customers sailing with Riviera Travel can be sure of tantalizing five-star dining experiences in the spacious and elegant restaurant & bar. Wine and dine on exquisite creations in the care of the attentive crew while enjoying magnificent views through panoramic windows.
Dinner is always a four-course culinary event. Each day the menu features a tantalising combination of international favourites and dishes reflecting each daily ports of call, created using locally-sourced ingredients.
The Captain’s Gala Dinner will feature six courses of specialities from the countries and regions visited on the cruise. Each day, there is a sumptuous breakfast buffet, a comprehensive lunch buffet and afternoon tea with the chef’s special patisserie.
Exceptional & Personalised Service
Your customers can be sure of a guest-to-crew ratio of just four to one. Crew members have the time to take care of all the little details, learning passengers’ names and personal preferences.
Riviera Travel ships are also less crowded than some others, carrying up to 50% less than similar-sized ships belonging to other cruise lines. In the restaurant, most tables seat just four or six people for an intimate dining experience. The newer vessels such as the Thomas Hardy also have alfresco dining areas.
Unique Itineraries & Excursions
Each day, there are fascinating excursions led by expert local guides, all included in the price. Guests will be looked after by a talented team of Tour Managers and Cruise Directors as they immerse themselves in the local culture, history, gastronomy, art and architecture of the places they visit.
Excursions will bring your guests off the tourist trail and beyond the pages of a guidebook to discover hidden gems, mingle with the locals, and explore lesser-known but equally beautiful places.
Most popular cruises & destinations include The Blue Danube – Roundtrip Budapest, Burgundy – The River Rhone & Provence From Lyon, and The Seine, Paris & Normandy.
