Travelers looking to save on a European river cruise vacation are in luck: Riviera River Cruises is offering 50 percent off 2026 departures.
The deal is available on bookings made through December 15. Riviera is running the promotion to celebrate the launch of 2026 sales, as well as the announcement of its new ship, its five new themed itineraries and its new departure for solo guests.
In 2026, the line plans to introduce the Riviera Resplendence, a 178-guest ship with the company’s largest-ever suites. The brand is also debuting new itineraries focused on gastronomy, music and art, and gardens.
“For a limited time, we’re celebrating our 2026 European river cruise collection with a deep discount,” said Marilyn Conroy, executive vice president of sales and marketing for North America for Riviera River Cruises.
“Whether it’s a classic itinerary like ‘The Blue Danube,’ an extended itinerary like the ‘Grand Cruise Through the Heart of Europe to the Black Sea,’ a new themed itinerary or a cruise aboard the new Riviera Resplendence, you can book any 2026 departure for half price," Conroy continued. "And when it comes time to board, you’ll also enjoy stylish and spacious accommodations, welcoming local guides and all-inclusive drinks between 10 a.m. and midnight.”
