No-Fly River Cruises

Many river cruises have the option to swap flights to rail or coach - call us for details. Prefer to keep your feet on the ground? You’ll be pleased to know that we offer a great choice of river cruises which don’t require flying.

No-fly river cruises are available on a choice of European rivers including the Rhine, the Moselle and the Waterways of Holland. They offer the ideal solution for anyone who doesn’t like flying, can’t fly for medical reasons or just wants fewer restrictions on luggage.

Travel by Rail or Coach

The Eurostar is a lovely, scenic way to travel to Europe to start your river cruise, with direct destinations including Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam. You can catch the Eurostar from London, or for certain cruises we can also add on regional UK departures from stations such as Newcastle, Leeds and Manchester.

Taking a coach is another option worth considering for anyone looking for a no-fly river cruise. Coaches often have many regional departure points, making it an easy way to start your holiday.

How Much Does a No-Fly River Cruise Cost?

The prices you’ll see displayed on our website are most often for river cruises which include flights. However, our Cruise Concierge team will be more than happy swap your flight for a rail or coach option and provide you with a detailed quote where rail or coach options are available. In many cases, no-fly river cruises can be cheaper than river cruises with flights.
