January River Cruises

What better way to start your new year in style than by escaping on a river cruise? As well as avoiding the rush of the January sales, you’ll be able to relax in style after Christmas and escape the cold on a river cruise in winter.  

Where can you sail?

January is the perfect month to explore the mystical wonders of Asia and the Far East, as the weather is good with blue skies and little to no rain. We have a great selection of sailings to Vietnam, Cambodia and Myanmar on offer throughout the month, along the Mekong and Irrawaddy rivers. Cruise lines which offer Asian itineraries in January include AmaWaterways, Emerald Waterways, Riviera Travel and Scenic.

For voyages closer to home, January is the ideal month to enjoy sailing along the River Nile, as the temperatures begin to drop in comparison to summer. The region has warm weather all year round, which can sometimes make it difficult to explore the riverbanks under the scorching heat.
