How our discounts work

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.

Visit the historic towns and cities of Lake IJssel

Discover the towns and cities surrounding Lake IJssel in the Netherlands on this all-inclusive river cruise aboard Spirit of the Rhine in 2025 – the ideal way to explore a region criss-crossed by a network of waterways. Visit Medemblik, a city of traditional gabled buildings built across numerous little islands connected by bridges.

Continue to Lelystad, from where you can visit the village of Giethoorn and see its charming thatched cottages on an included canal cruise.

Sail across Lake IJsselmeer and onto the Dutch waterways to reach Zaandam. From here an included excursion visits Keukenhof Gardens to discover its world-famous floral displays independently.

Finally, enjoy a full day to explore Amsterdam at your leisure. Among the city’s most interesting sights are the Royal Palace on Dam Square, the floating flower market, the Central Railway Station, which is built on thousands of wooden piles, and the 19th-century Rijksmuseum in the city’s museum quarter.
