  • River water levels may fluctuate, affecting your itinerary. The cruise line will strive to operate as planned, but changes may occur. Your cruise director will keep you informed.
  • You can go ashore independently when the ship is moored. Please return no later than 30 minutes before departure and scan your cabin key when departing and when you return. Some ships may request you leave your key at the reception desk.
  • It is common for river cruise ships to moor alongside each other in busy ports. You may need to walk through other vessels when embarking or disembarking. Your cabin view may be temporarily obstructed during this time.
