Seating Policy

Riviera Travel has a policy of informal free seatings and smaller tables. Tables are set to four or six people and guests are free to dine with whomever they choose. This gives a personal, intimate experience, akin to dining at home with friends.

Drinks Packages

This cruise line doesn't include drinks in the price of their cruises, as they would prefer not to charge you for something which you might not use. Bar prices are very reasonable, at around €2.75 for a small glass of wine and €4 for a pint of local beer. If you prefer to purchase a drinks package in advance, Riviera Travel's package includes unlimited draught beer, non-alcoholic beer, soft drinks, juices, red, white and rosé house wines.
