European Cruise FAQs

What is the difference between ocean and river cruises in Europe?

Ocean cruises visit coastal cities and offer more onboard amenities with 2,000+ passengers. River cruises sail through the heart of Europe with 150-200 passengers, docking in city centers with more intimate experiences and included excursions.

Do I need visas for a European cruise?

Most European countries are visa-free for US citizens for stays under 90 days. However, Russia requires a visa, though some cruise lines offer visa-free programs for their organized shore excursions. We handle all visa arrangements for you.

When is the best time for a Norwegian fjords cruise?

May through September offers the best weather with long daylight hours. June and July have nearly 24-hour daylight. For Northern Lights, consider September through March, though weather can be rougher.
