CroisiEurope has launched its new 2019 worldwide programme featuring 170 itineraries that take place on more than 50 ships on 39 waterways in 37 countries.
New for 2019 are a range of European rivers, French canals by bike, themed cruises and coastal itineraries.
The company will also be launching a premium ship, the MS Amalia Rodrigues, on the Douro in Portugal for 2019 - the sixth premium rated ship to join the fleet.
As examples of itineraries, a three-night Paris cruise featuring an unusual tour of the French capital including the ?le de la Cit? and Notre-Dame de Paris, the P?re Lachaise Cemetery or the Panth?on, Saint-Germain-des-Pr?s and its delicacies, plus an optional tour to discover the largest wholesale food market in the world at the Rungis International Market leads in at ?413 per person.
On a French canals by bike option, a six-night Loire cruise and bike itinerary round-trip from Paris takes in the secret bike paths between Nevers and Briare, with cruise-only prices from ?2,488. Alternatively, guests can opt for a hiking cruise, where a six-night Seine cruise and hike itinerary ventures from the heart of Paris to the cliffs in ?tretat. It included guided walks along some of the best trails in the Seine Valley and cruise-only prices are from ?1,323.
John Fair, the company's UK sales director, said: ?Next year sees us continue to innovate with new itineraries on river, canal and coast, new theme cruises, new destinations for our hugely popular biking and hiking cruises and a brand new premium rated ship on the Douro.
"In addition, in 2019 we will continue to offer a diverse range of perennial favourites ? such as our beautiful cruises from Bordeaux on the Garonne, Gironde and Dordogne, all of which represent great value at a mid-range price point so I?d encourage our trade partners to contact us to learn more.?
