EVERY river has a story. And every traveller leaves with their own. That’s the promise behind Trafalgar’s invitation to discover Europe in a way that feels more intimate, more immersive and more inspiring.
On the river, mornings feel mistier, towns feel closer and possibilities feel greater.
For Malaysians, this is a chance to experience Europe differently; through meaningful discovery, local connection and stories that stay with you long after you’ve returned home.

Three iconic rivers, unforgettable itineraries
Trafalgar sails on three of Europe’s most iconic rivers, each offering its own chapter in your travel story.
- Best of the Danube and Prague: Glide through Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava. Explore imperial palaces, vibrant markets and the Wachau Valley’s vineyards. Join the Saahs family at Weingut Nikolaihof, Austria’s oldest winery and enjoy a homemade lunch. It’s a 10-day journey steeped in music, art, and timeless charm;
- Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam: Cruise past castles and legends in the Middle Rhine Gorge. In spring, wander through the breathtaking Keukenhof Gardens, where millions of tulips bloom in dazzling colour. From Cologne’s Gothic cathedral to Strasbourg’s fairy-tale streets, the 10-day journey down the Rhine is a feast for the senses;
- Best of the Seine with Paris and Normandy: This 8-day cruise begins in Paris and then drifts into Normandy’s countryside. Visit Monet’s gardens at Giverny, stroll beneath the Eiffel Tower and reflect at the historic beaches of Normandy. It’s romance, history and French joie de vivre in one seamless journey;
- Christmas Markets of the Danube and Christmas Markets of Rhine: Celebrate the festive season in Europe’s most enchanting squares. Sip mulled wine in Vienna, shop for handmade ornaments in Cologne and wander through Strasbourg’s twinkling streets. River cruising during the holidays is pure magic.
