Five differences between an Ocean Cruise & a River Cruise

Updated: Dec 4, 2023

Ready to embark on your maiden river cruise voyage? Forget what you think you know about cruises - ocean and river cruising offer vastly different experiences. From ship size, variety of destinations, style of stateroom and so much more; find out why a river journey is an unforgettable adventure! Here are a few of the big differences.

1 No Big Line-Ups With river cruises you can forego the frustrating lines, forget about struggling to find a spot by over-crowded pools, and get your food or coffee in no time. Cruising with ease - now that's something worth experiencing! 2 Highly Personalized Service River cruises offer a unique level of personalization with their high passenger-to-staff ratio. You'll be welcomed aboard to an environment where the staff strive to create incredible experiences tailored just for you - they know your name and preferences, so nothing is out of reach! 3 Get on and off the ship in seconds Boarding day will leave you speechless. No more 15-step and 3 hour long check-ins. Both you and your luggage will be on the ship in a matter of minutes. On port days, you can breeze on and off the ship as many times as you want to with ease. 4 Approachable & Accessible Management ​With the hotel manager easily accessible to guests, you can trust that whatever help or questions you need are easily accessible. The high crew to guest ratio means that you'll be taken care off before you know you need anything. Don't be surprised to find your favorite drinks and food in front of you before you ask for them. 5 Excursions Are Included Experience the beauty of each destination with exciting shore excursions included in your cruise. Go on a walking or bike tour, indulge in local cuisine or take part in vibrant cultural performances – all designed to give you an unforgettable journey!
