Pleasure may be the name of the game with today’s River Cruises, but this was not always the case in years gone by.
Rivers were once the life blood of a nation’s development. Towns, cities and trading centres grew, as commerce spread its influence inland. Settlements and people followed the flow. Industry boomed. Castles and fortresses were built to defend fertile farming lands from foreign invaders. Markets became interconnected. Food and wine flowed in all directions. Culture blossomed. Artists were captured by the surrounding beauty.
And so it is that we inherit an incredibly rich and diverse history, all of which was spawned from man’s use of water. Where once it was a need for society to progress and travel, today it is a choice. With the boom in tourism, we get to witness the blood, sweat and tears of the past, as well as the joys or progression. We can savour the historical relics that dot and mark the banks and shores. To sample regional foods, drink local wines, see where artists painted and great musicians composed. To walk on the battlefields were many fell. To experience the vestiges of power and politics, grandeur and poverty. All of this is possible because of the growing demand for River Cruises and the visions of great cruise lines:
- AmaWaterways
- A-Rosa
- AuCo
- Avalon
- Emerald Cruises
- Scenic Cruises
- Viking Cruises
