Big Adventures with Small Group Travel

As we begin planning our next adventures, safety will be top of mind. In addition to getting to and from destinations – staying safe while exploring these exciting new places is equally as important.

Small Ship River Cruises

If you’ve cruised by ocean before, you are familiar with how many co-travelers are along with you on the adventure. Maybe you like cruising, but want smaller scale with more space to spread out – there is another option for you! Enter river cruises, an increasingly popular alternative offering a more intimate experience onboard.

You might not have the oh-my-gosh, big-ship amenities like rock climbing walls, multi-story waterslides or observation pods suspended hundreds of feet above the sea. However, river cruising affords a long list of destination choices that are far beyond the reach of the seafaring mega-ships.

Among the most frequently booked itineraries are European river cruises along the Rhine and Danube. These routes treat passengers to amazing up-close views of castles, tidy vineyards and centuries-old towns and villages. What’s more, river ships make sightseeing incredibly convenient. Guests are dropped off near the epicenter of each port and often remaining docked late into the evening. This allows guests more time to explore and even sample the local nightlife.

There are several European river cruise lines to choose from. Take a look at a few of the exciting itineraries offered by AAA preferred travel suppliers:
