Cruise the Douro river on the brand-new, beautifully crafted MS Riviera Rose, a luxurious 80-metre-long boutique hotel. It’s the perfect place to unwind between onshore adventures.

MS Riviera Rose is a beautifully crafted ship with cabins and amenities spread over four decks. This brand-new, state-of-the-art ship has been built in collaboration with our long-standing shipping partners to provide a first-class service to each and every guest. Whether you are relaxing on the Sun Deck, enjoying a drink with your fellow travellers in the bar or curling up for a good night's sleep in your spacious and well-furnished cabin, everything has been meticulously designed for your comfort.

Our restaurant offers a relaxed fine dining experience with informal seating for easy conversation with brilliant, like-minded explorers. In the Rio restaurant enjoy a more intimate dining experience and al fresco dining options. Please note: Due to low bridges, lunch and dinner service is restricted as the restaurant collapses to allow the ship to navigate safely under the bridges. Please talk to your Cruise Director to make your reservation.

The spacious cabins are spread over 3 decks, with individually controlled air-conditioning, a contemporary bathroom with a rain shower and double or twin beds.

Designed with the very latest technology and our strong environmental values in mind, MS Riviera Rose is on track to qualify for the Gold Standard as part of the Green Award programme.

Giving a gratuity is entirely at your discretion, so we have not included these in your holiday cost, and we don't add it as a set percentage.

If you would like to tip the staff, a good guideline is to give €8-12 per person per day should you feel that is appropriate.

If you do choose to give a gratuity, there will usually be an envelope is left in your cabin on the final evening. This is for you to be able include any tips, and you can then drop it off at reception the following morning. The tips are divided equally between the crew.

Should you also wish to give a gratuity directly to your Riviera Travel Cruise Director and Concierge, this is also at your discretion.
