Trafalgar is launching a sale on 2026 river cruises.

Travelers can enjoy savings up to 30 percent off on voyages along some of Europe’s most iconic waterways during prime travel months. From now through April 16, travelers can save up to $2,580 off per couple, plus earn a $300 flight credit per couple on select 2026 river cruise departures between June 1 and September 30.

“Travelers and advisors have the opportunity to take advantage of meaningful savings while being among the first to experience river cruising with Trafalgar,” says Whitney Ramirez, senior vice president of sales for TTC Tour Brands.

Trafalgar’s two 2026 summer itineraries are:

  • Best of the Danube: An 8-day cruise from Budapest to Passau, featuring Vienna’s café culture, Bratislava’s Cold War history and a Be My Guest experience at Austria’s oldest winery
  • Best of the Rhine and Amsterdam: A 10-day journey from Basel to Amsterdam, with highlights including Strasbourg’s old town, the Middle Rhine Gorge and farm-to-table dining with the Bohrer family

Past guests can combine all applicable offers with their standard 5 percent Global Tour Rewards (GTR) discount. 

“There’s no better way to experience summer in Europe than along its most storied rivers, and these two itineraries offer an effortless way to do just that,” says Ramirez. “With this limited time offer, guests can secure exceptional value and plan their summer journeys with confidence, while advisors have a timely opportunity to introduce clients to Trafalgar’s new river cruise experience and expand their offerings as demand for European summer travel remains strong.”
