Trafalgar is expanding its guided travel expertise to the water with a new fleet of river cruises launched for the 2026 season. Developed in partnership with Uniworld, these voyages operate as "floating boutique hotels" on the Rhine, Danube, and Seine, focusing on deep cultural immersion and local connection. Guests can expect the brand’s signature "Be My Guest" experiences, such as private dinners at family-run estates, alongside a high level of personalization provided by dedicated onboard Experience Directors. By utilizing smaller, intimate ships like the Trafalgar Verity and Reverie, the cruises offer a seamless transition between Europe’s historic river ports and exclusive land-based excursions.

The Trafalgar River Cruises Experience

Immeasurable added value to your perfect trip with Trafalgar
Trafalgar Sustainable
Make Travel Matter®
The MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® initiative focuses on sustainable and conscious tourism by integrating experiences that directly benefit the local people, planet, and wildlife of the regions visited. These carefully vetted excursions align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, moving beyond traditional sightseeing to support community-based projects and environmental conservation. Whether it’s visiting a historic estate that preserves ancient agricultural crafts or supporting local social enterprises, these moments are designed to ensure that your travels leave a positive, lasting impact on the destinations and their heritage.
Be My Guest
"Be My Guest"
The "Be My Guest" experience is the signature highlight of a Trafalgar journey, offering travelers exclusive access to private homes, farms, and villas for a shared meal and authentic conversation with local hosts. Instead of a typical restaurant visit, guests might find themselves dining at a 17th-century organic farm in the Rhine plain or a historic family-run winery in the Wachau Valley. These encounters are designed to break the "tourist bubble," allowing travelers to hear personal stories and learn about regional traditions directly from the people who live there, creating a deep, human connection to the destination.
