Trafalgar has debuted its new river cruise offering with inaugural sailings aboard the Trafalgar Verity on the Rhine and the Trafalgar Reverie on the Danube.
The launch was celebrated with a three-day inaugural sailing aboard the Trafalgar Verity in Amsterdam from April 10-12, welcoming over 100 trade partners, media and Trafalgar team members worldwide.
The company said in a press release that the experience was designed to reflect Trafalgar’s signature approach to travel.
The launch also signals the beginning of Trafalgar’s broader river cruise ambitions, with a third ship, the Trafalgar Harmonie, set to debut on the Seine in 2027, and further expansion planned as it continues to grow its presence in the river cruise market through 2030.
“Introducing river cruising is a dream in the making for Trafalgar, shaped by the trust our travel advisor partners have placed in us over the years and their support every step of the way,” said Melissa DaSilva, deputy CEO and chief sales officer at TTC Tour Brands.
“We’re bringing our decades of experience crafting guided journeys to Europe’s rivers, creating even more opportunities for advisors to connect their clients with the meaningful, locally driven experiences that define our brand. This is just the beginning, with future expansion already underway,” added DaSilva.
Both Trafalgar Verity and Trafalgar Reverie are 128-guest, three-deck river ships.
Sailing the Rhine between Basel and Amsterdam on the 10-day “Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam” itinerary, the Trafalgar Verity pairs an Art Deco-inspired design with journeys through Europe’s scenic river regions, including Strasbourg, Cologne and the UNESCO-listed Middle Rhine Gorge.
On the Danube, the Trafalgar Reverie sails from Passau to Budapest on the “Best of the Danube” itinerary, exploring Central Europe’s cultural capitals, including Vienna and Bratislava, alongside scenic cruising through the Danube Valley.
Rates start from $2,849 per person for the “Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam” itinerary and $3,699 per person for “Best of the Danube.”
