On all cruises we set aside a number of cabins within each level at a discounted fare, with the highest discount of 35% for ocean cruises and 25% for river cruises available on selected levels. These cabins are sold on a first come, first served basis. As cabins are sold, the discount begins to reduce, and continues to reduce until those selected cabins are sold.
This means that the earlier you book, the higher the chance of securing a greater discount. Our price panels clearly show the full cruise price, along with the current discount fare.
Please note: During busy periods for holiday bookings, the early booking discount can reduce rapidly. We recommend that you book early to benefit from the best booking discounts and to secure your preferred cabin.
When promoting new cruises for the first time, we contact customers on our Advanced Registration list first, allowing then to secure the cabin of their choice and benefit from the best savings. Our brochures are then sent out to loyalty club members first, followed by past cruise goers and then everyone else.

Take your seat for the André Rieu Christmas concert
Experience the theatrical extravaganza of the André Rieu Christmas concert on this 5-night, all-inclusive river cruise in 2026. Visit Arnhem, located on the banks of the Nederrijn and St Jansbeek rivers. The city is best known for its connection to one of the famous battles of World War Two and you can see its traditional Dutch architecture on a walking tour. Discover over 800 years of history on a walking tour of Roermond, where the skyline is dominated by the towers of St Christopher Cathedral and Roermond Minster. Continue to Maastricht to explore its cobbled old town, home to the Gothic-style church of St Janskerk and the Romanesque Basilica of St Servatius, on a walking tour. The highlight of your river cruise is sure to be the performance from André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra at the MECC in his hometown of Maastricht.
