A&K Enters River Cruising

Oct 15, 2013

Citing river cruising as the hottest travel trend, Abercrombie & Kent has launched a dedicated River Cruise Journeys brochure for the first time ever. The company has a new line of 2014 cruise itineraries for river, canal, barging and adventure cruising from Europe and Southeast Asia to the Arctic and Antarctica.

The canal cruises, promoted as experiencing one village at a time, will travel the waterways of France, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Scotland, England and Ireland.

“What sets A&K apart is our ability to expand any journey to include some of the greatest cities of Europe, including Paris, Amsterdam and Budapest, led by an expert A&K local guide,” said president Phil Otterson.
