MS Riviera Reflection

Launching in 2027 is the five-star Riviera Reflection, sister ship of Riviera Radiance and Riviera Resplendence.

Named for the memories that stay with you long after your holiday ends, Riviera Reflection features our largest suites and has been beautifully designed with our Swiss partners.

From the split-level lounge and main restaurant, to the natural light flooding in through floor-to-ceiling French balconies in over 80% of cabins and suites, life on board feels bright and airy. Located on the Diamond Deck, the Grand Suites are a generous 32 square metres and feature separate living and sleeping areas alongside a private balcony, making them our most spacious suites yet. At 24 square metres, our Superior Suites also offer a luxurious sense of space.

The ship’s main restaurant is comparable to the finest onshore dining, elevating every meal with exquisite European porcelain, sparkling glassware and the intuitive service for which the Swiss are renowned. Two additional speciality restaurants provide a more intimate setting, each showcasing a tempting selection of local flavours.

Designed with the latest technology and strong environmental values at its heart, Riviera Reflection has been designed to meet Gold Standard accreditation through the Green Award programme. Relax with a cocktail on the Sun Deck, knowing your holiday has been thoughtfully designed to minimise its impact on the landscapes we journey through.

A small number of bicycles are available on board for guests. Please enquire at reception for details.

Please note: As Riviera Reflection has yet to launch, images shown of the ship are currently of its sister ship, Riviera Radiance or Riviera Resplendence.

Dining

Ease into your day with a buffet breakfast in the main dining room, where a spread of hot and cold dishes sets you up nicely for the day ahead.

For lunch and dinner, you’re spoilt for choice with three superb dining venues. The main restaurant serves a buffet lunch, followed by a four-course à la carte dinner. For something different, the Riverview Kitchen draws inspiration from classic grill restaurants. Meanwhile, the Mosaic Restaurant serves up courses comprising elements inspired by Europe’s rivers, expertly paired with wine hand-selected by our sommelier. Dining at the Riverview Kitchen and Mosaic restaurants is included at no extra cost.

Enrichment

We are a well-travelled collective - made up of our guests as well as our team. We'll admit it - we're obsessed with travel.

But that's not our only interest. We also love architecture, history, the arts, and gastronomy - everything that makes a culture unique. And we plan our itineraries to ensure we're catering to those interests. Perfecting every excursion to ensure you get the most out of your onshore adventures.

Most days are filled with full or half-day excursions. Whether that's a city tour, an introduction to a brand-new town or a more in-depth visit to a specific landmark or attraction. You'll see the very best of every destination. Not just the legendary locations, we'll uncover the top-secret local spots too.  

Bikes

A small number of bicycles are available on board for our guests. Please enquire at the reception desk for information.

Please note: as Riviera Reflection has yet to launch, images shown are of sister ship, Riviera Radiance or Riviera Resplendence. 

Onshore Experiences

World-famous landmarks

You'll get to experience some world-famous destinations in the company of our passionate local guides. Sites like the Benedictine Melk Abbey on the Danube, spectacular Pont du Gard on the Rhône, Keukenhof Gardens - the world's largest flower gardens - on the Dutch Waterways and Cologne with its cathedral, the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe.

A taste of your destination

Food has the uncanny ability to reveal the softer parts of the destination most tourists overlook. Recipes passed down through the generations slowly become ingrained within a culture, featuring fresh local produce and traditional cooking techniques. Our excursions often include delicious local produce perfected over centuries - sample cheese in Switzerland and chocolate in Germany (it's not a cruise for those watching their weight), wine tasting in the world-famous wine region of Burgundy and port in the port wine cellars of Porto.

For even more, why not choose one of our Gastronomy themed departures?

Authentic cultural experiences

Our river cruise itineraries deliver authentic and engaging moments to fully immerse you in the culture. You'll remember being seduced by the fiery passion of flamenco dancing after a cruise along the Douro. Hold on to that feeling of wonder you felt as you watch the glassblower creating the most beautiful vase out of a glowing mass. And tell the stories you heard during a Hungarian folklore show to your grandchildren at bedtime. The memory of these authentic cultural experiences will last a lifetime.

Useful Information

Dress Code

There is no requirement to bring formal dress - smart/casual is acceptable for both day and evening as there is no dress code enforced. However, men are requested not to wear shorts for dinner or vest tops at any time in the dining room. You may wish to wear a jacket and tie for dinner. The Chef's Dinner offers the opportunity, should you wish, for more special attire.

Age Restrictions

The minimum age limit is 12 years old at the date of departure. We reserve the right to limit the number of children on any particular cruise. Any minor must be accompanied by and share a cabin with an adult aged 21 or over. If the adult is not the minor’s parent, a ‘Parental Consent Guardianship Form’ must be signed by a parent or legal guardian prior to sailing.

Medical Facilities

If you have any concerns about your health whilst on tour, please see your Cruise Director or Concierge. They will be able to advise you about chemists and availability of doctors, etc. In an emergency you could always phone our emergency number as issued on your itinerary. There are no on-board medical personnel, although specific crew members will have basic first aid training. However, the ship can stop at any time to transfer any passenger requiring emergency medical attention to local medical facilities.

Disabled Facilities

We want to ensure you make the correct choice before you book your holiday with us.

Our ships are not adapted for wheelchair access. If you are intending to take a wheelchair or mobility scooter with you, it is essential that you contact us to let us know.

Wheelchairs and mobility scooters can be used on excursions but they cannot be used on board the ships due to safety reasons and must not be left in corridors, the lounge or restaurant or any other public areas. They must be stored in your cabin.

River cruises operate with a smaller crew than ocean cruises and do not have the crew available to personally attend to passengers with reduced mobility, therefore a travelling companion would need to be able to help with any physical needs.

The itinerary we include with our river cruises involves shore excursions visiting places with cobbled streets which can be on an incline making navigation of these streets difficult for anyone with reduced mobility.

If you can’t do many shore excursions, river cruising in Europe can still be very enjoyable and worthwhile. Cruising down the Rhine, Danube or any of the European rivers we offer gives you the opportunity to take in the spectacular scenery and there is a lot to enjoy from the comfort of the ship. Please contact us with any concerns you may have.

Whilst most of our ships have a lift on board, it does not operate to all decks.

We include mobility information regarding lifts between decks on each ship under the deck plan section of the page. You may wish to view all of our ships before booking.

Smoking Policy

Smoking, including e-cigarettes, is not permitted anywhere on board except for designated areas on the sun deck. More and more countries in Europe are adopting a stricter legislation on smoking in public places.

Smoking is not allowed on any public transport and there may be other restrictions in hotels, bars and restaurants.

Wi-Fi

Free Wi-Fi available for your convenience

Air Conditioning

Our ships are fully air-conditioned throughout. Each cabin has individual air-conditioning and heating controls.

Dietary Requirements

We cater for most dietary requirements, please ensure you advise our sales team when making the booking.
