Yes, river cruises can be much more intimate than the larger ocean vessel cruises – plus on a river cruise you can dock right within the cities and small towns and easily get off the ship to explore on your own.

A river cruise is on my bucket list. My husband and I were in Ireland a few years ago and asking fellow travelers about their favorite trips. Many mentioned river cruises as a “must do”.

Izy – for sure, and when travel is combined with wine, it makes for an even more memorable trip 🙂

In reply to Michael Zullo.

Thanks Michael – the smaller ships are a lot more intimate and you have access to much smaller rivers as well.

Very good article, Dave. We enjoyed it a lot.
First, like you having a seat by a crying baby – – it’s rare Gina and I don’t have 1 or more crying babies whenever we fly. Sometime down the road we’ll do a river cruise instead of cruising on the huge ships we’ve always done. The Bordeaux river cruise sounds like the way to go. Enjoy the wine, French cuisine, baguettes & croissants and have fun exploring the sights.
