Shearings River Cruises

With well over a century of travel experience to its name, Shearings is certainly a company which knows everything there is to know about river cruising. A Shearings river cruise offers not only excellent value, but fantastic service on a carefully selected range of exclusively-chartered vessels. These explore itineraries which visit a host of iconic rivers and cities and are regularly updated to ensure that customers both returning and new have plenty to choose from.

With an extremely wide selection of destinations, Shearings has a whole host of incredible itineraries for you to choose from, no matter what your tastes and interests may be. 

You may want to see some of Germany's most stunning scenery by venturing down the Rhine, Moselle or Main waterways, or perhaps you want to sail through the heart of Central Europe via the Danube River, visiting such legendary capital cities as Vienna and Hungary?

Of course, with Shearings it’s not just about exploring Europe, and by way of its exclusive charters, the line offers you the chance to unearth the ancient wonders of China on a cruise down the Yangtze, or the incredible historic sites of Vietnam and Cambodia on a memorable Mekong voyage. If you want to explore the incredible legacy of the Egyptians, then Shearings also offers you the chance to sail the legendary Nile River.
