“We are delighted to be sailing again on Europe’s most beautiful rivers. Naturally, we are eagerly awaiting feedback from our first passengers. It has been well worth the meticulous planning and implementation of our new hygiene and health concept, providing a safe environment for our customers and ensuring a wonderful experience. The quality of our offering has even improved in some areas,” reports Jörg Eichler, CEO of A-ROSA River Cruises.
Passenger capacity has been reduced on the first departures, but once on board, guests can enjoy enhanced, personalized service and comfortable seating arranged to ensure social distancing. The swimming pools and fitness centers are also available, subject to hygiene protocols, and SPA-ROSA continues to offer passengers massages and beauty treatments. Bike and bus excursions, as well as walking tours, are conducted in small groups.
A-ROSA's award-winning premium cruises are a great alternative to traditional European city breaks. Effective immediately, A-ROSA is sailing again on the Danube, Rhine, and Douro rivers, and in France from July 11, 2020.
The itineraries follow the schedules published in the A-ROSA brochure, but are subject to adjustments based on local authority requirements. The seven-night “Danube Classics” itinerary is a standout cruise: it combines breathtaking scenery with rich history and visits to three European capitals: Vienna, Budapest, and Bratislava. On the Rhine, you can visit vibrant northern metropolises such as Amsterdam and Rotterdam, as well as the idyllic Moselle Valley, with its lush terraced vineyards, picturesque villages, and ancient castles.
Starting and ending in picturesque Porto, A-ROSA's seven-night Douro cruises sail through the magnificent Douro Valley, surrounded by endless rows of vines, to the Spanish border.
