Why River & Small-Ship Cruising
River and small‑ship cruises are like staying in a floating boutique hotel that glides right into the heart of each town. You unpack once, enjoy good food and wine on board, and step off to explore villages, vineyards, and cities at a relaxed pace.
- Think storybook towns, vineyards, and historic cities instead of crowded mega‑ship ports.
- Smaller ships mean fewer people and a more intimate, relaxed onboard atmosphere.
- Many itineraries include guided excursions and wine experiences, so more is taken care of before you ever step on board.
This is why I specialize in river and small‑ship cruises—my clients love the ease, the scenery, and the feeling of really being in each place, not just passing through.
What River & Vine Travel Plans for You
I design your whole journey around the cruise, so every piece fits together and you’re never left on your own wondering “what now?” at any point.
- European river, wine cruises, ocean, and Great Lakes cruise selection with cabin guidance tailored to how you like to travel.
- Pre‑ and post‑cruise hotel stays in key cities, so you can settle in instead of stressing over logistics.
- Rail, transfers, and flights that connect your itinerary smoothly from home to ship and back again.
- Land tours, wine days, and small‑group experiences that match your pace and interests, from vineyards to city walks.

Why Plan with River & Vine Travel?
Planning with River & Vine Travel means you have a river‑ and wine‑focused advisor who knows the cruise lines, works with trusted partners, and is there for you before, during, and after your trip.
- Unbiased Advice: I compare river and small‑ship options across lines, focusing on what fits you best, not who’s running a promotion that day.
- No extra cost vs. booking direct : Cruise lines set the fares, so you usually pay the same as booking direct—often with added perks or extras when available
- Full‑trip planning: I handle the cruise, cabins, flights, transfers, hotels, and land experiences, so the whole journey feels seamless.
- Support every step of the way : You have a real person to call if plans change or questions pop up, instead of waiting on hold with a call center.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge planning fees?
Most of my planning support is paid by the cruise lines and trusted partners I work with, so your price is usually the same as booking direct—sometimes with extra amenities or added value. If a trip requires complex custom work and a planning fee makes sense, I explain that upfront so there are no surprises, and you can decide how you’d like to proceed.
Can you help if I’m just starting to look?
Yes. A lot of my guests start with “I’m not sure which river, line, or date is best.” We talk through how you like to travel, and then I share a few curated options and walk you through the pros and cons of each—no pressure to decide on the spot, just a clear path forward when you’re ready.
What if something changes or goes wrong?
If something changes or goes wrong, you have a real advisor to contact—not just a call center queue—so you’re not alone in handling schedule changes, questions, or issues on the road. I’m here to help you navigate options and keep your trip on track.
