Travel Styles

Relax as you experience iconic sights on a relaxing river cruise or head off the beaten path on a small ship cruise.

River Cruising

One of the more relaxing ways to explore Europe, river cruising allows you to see more at a comfortable pace. Unpack once and wake to an exciting new destination each day. Dock right in the heart of town, closer to the sights you’ve come to see, and step ashore ready to explore.

Coastal Cruising

Dock in ports and fishing villages on a coastal cruise with Travelmarvel. A small ship coastal cruise on the Adriatic Sea aboard the Princess Eleganza offers an exciting experience without the crowds and will give you greater access to Croatia’s smaller ports. Or board a Hurtigruten ship for a Norwegian adventure and see mountainscapes, large fiords and the northernmost locations in Europe.

Land Journeys

From the architectural treasures of Italy to the wonders of Eastern Europe, an immersive land journey is the perfect complement to any river cruise. Visit Europe’s famous landmarks and lesser-known gems. Delve into fascinating cultures and explore striking landscapes, all in total comfort, and while staying in centrally located hotels.

Rail Journeys

A contrast to the fast pace of everyday life, exploring Europe by rail is relaxing, comfortable and convenient. From heritage railways to high-speed trains that zip from city to city, be left in awe by the ever-changing scenery before disembarking in the centre of your destination. Our wide range of rail journeys criss-cross the continent, from the Highlands of Scotland to to the Arctic Circle in Sweden and Norway.
