Spirit of the Rhine was designed with our guests in mind. In the past we’ve chartered ships with varying style, size and facilities, but now we can offer the same boutique experience on board every ship.
Spirit of the Rhine was constructed at the Vahali Shipyards in Serbia in 2021 and set sail on her inaugural cruise later in the year. Her official naming ceremony took place in Arnhem in the Netherlands and was attended by her Godmother, broadcaster and journalist Dame Jenni Murray. Designed to the highest specification, Spirit of the Rhine has four passenger decks, can accommodate 182 passengers, and set the standard for our expanding fleet.

Explore Ashore on a River Cruise
Immerse yourself in the cultures of Europe cruise excursions
River cruising’s main attraction is exploring a number of towns and cities in a single trip, unlike a traditional holiday. It’s like having numerous city breaks in one go. But where could you visit and why should you explore ashore with us?

Every Saga river cruise includes a selection of excursions in the price, designed especially for you.
Our river cruise excursions allow you to explore the port and its surrounding areas while learning about its culture and history, often with a local guide.
