The size of a cabin is between 11.50m2 to 13m2, offering amenities and providing guests with all the comforts they need during their
stay. The refined decoration and the elegant and friendly atmosphere are in perfect harmony with its environment.
At CroisiEurope, the day begins with a continental breakfast buffet, rich and varied: pastries, cereals, coffee, tea, fruit juice, a wide selection of breads, jams, cold meats, eggs, fresh fruits and yogurts.
Lunch and dinner are served at fixed times in one service. They offer a complete menu (starter - main course - dessert) composed by our chefs. They pay homage to French gastronomy and can satisfy the palates of our international clientele. The surprise is always there with finishing touches, and local flavors conducive to a culinary immersion in the visited country of the itinerary.
Produced daily on the spot, using mainly fresh products, they are accompanied by a selection of wines chosen for their quality and their compatibility with the dishes, and are included in the price of the cruise (except wines from the specific wine list).
Often, lectures on subjects related to the history and geography of the places visited, are offered in the lounge bar.
Many activities and entertainment are offered on board – and we encourage our guests to join in on the fun.
Before dinner, games and quizzes are hosted by our entertainers in the lounge bar.
On the sun deck, you can stroll alone, be with family or friends, sit comfortably in the sun loungers, or enjoy a drink while enjoying the passing landscapes. Want to keep fit? Gymnastics sessions are organised in the morning, and you can jog or walk the riverbanks during free time in port.
The panoramic lounge bar, the library and the "pianorama-bar" (the latter 2 are available on some boats only), are refined and furnished with taste. It is nice place to spend quiet moments after returning from excursions for example.
Often, lectures on subjects related to the history and geography of the places visited, are offered in the lounge bar.
Some evenings, the dance floor of the lounge comes to life. Musical evenings, folk groups or singers, variety shows where the crew members reveal their hidden talents, are all chances to let loose after a day of touring! And don’t forget the Gala evening – a farewell to your new friends. There’s no lack of fun to have on board, or memories to take with you!
Start your day joining us for a morning fitness class on the sun deck.
Mini and junior-clubs: Children can enjoy on-board entertainment (water games, sports and manual activities), they can take part in an end of cruise show given to parents and grandparents and many other surprises
