Frequently Asked Questions

River cruises sail inland waterways like the Rhine, Danube and Douro on small ships that dock in town centers, while ocean cruises visit coastal cities from larger ships. Rivers suit travelers who want history and scenery at a slower pace; ocean voyages cover more countries per trip.

Late spring through early fall offers the most sailings and the most reliable weather. April, May, September and October are popular shoulder months that often combine good conditions with lower fares than midsummer.

Many travelers can visit Schengen-area countries without a visa for short stays, but requirements depend on your nationality and the countries on your itinerary. Check entry requirements for every country your cruise visits well before sailing.

River itineraries commonly run 7 to 14 nights, and ocean itineraries typically range from about a week to two weeks. Longer grand voyages combine several regions in a single trip.

Cruise fares generally do not include airfare unless a promotion says otherwise. CruiseHub advisors can help you time flights around embarkation and arrange pre-cruise hotel nights so you never risk missing the ship.
