It is perfectly possible to cruise with your baby.

For children over the age of one, remember to reserve age-appropriate menus at the time of booking. For your convenience, we can heat up your children's bottles or food.

Wheelchair Accessibility

CroisiEurope welcomes passengers with reduced mobility and strives to facilitate their access to the places of conviviality on board and to the suggested excursions. Before making a reservation, our company invites you to mention your specific needs to one of our agents, so that we can offer you the most suitable boat.

People with reduced mobility or with mobility difficulties can benefit from adapted cabins on some of the boats in our fleet.

Please note that our three-deck boats have elevators that provide access to the different decks, as well as to the dining room, the lounge and the toilets adapted to people with reduced mobility.

Our two-deck boats, on the other hand, are designed in terms of layout so that the common facilities (restaurant, lounge-bar, reception) are all on one level: the main deck, which also has cabins.

Some of our excursions may cause difficulties for people with reduced mobility (walking for several hours, unsteady ground surfaces, unevenness, ...), participation in the excursions as well as the trip is subject to the passenger's sufficient mobility.

We invite you to contact your CroisiEurope agent or your usual travel agency for further information.
