Trafalgar is expanding into river cruising with two new European journeys set to launch in spring 2026.
The tour operator, known for its guided land tours, will offer an eight-day Danube cruise aboard the 128-passenger Trafalgar Reverie and a 10-day Rhine cruise aboard the 128-passenger Trafalgar Verity.
Sales are currently open to travel advisors before being offered to the general public. Sailings begin April 11, 2026.
"We've always been about making it easy for travelers to connect with the heart and soul of every destination," said Melissa DaSilva, deputy chief executive officer of TTC Tour Brands. "Now, we're bringing that same philosophy and unmatched experience to Europe's iconic rivers."
Both journeys will feature Trafalgar's signature experiences, including local specialists, "Be My Guest" encounters and at least one "Make Travel Matter" experience supporting U.N. Sustainable Development Goals.
The Danube cruise will travel from Budapest to Passau with highlights including Budapest landmarks, Bratislava and Vienna. Rates start at $2,799 per person, based on double occupancy.
The Rhine cruise will sail from Basel to Amsterdam, featuring the UNESCO-listed Cologne Cathedral, Middle Rhine Gorge and Strasbourg. Rates start at $3,399 per person, based on double occupancy.
Optional extensions will be available for both cruises.
