From 3 March 2025, A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH has made the adventure cruises of the 2026 season bookable. The 15 ships of the A-ROSA fleet will set off on more than 60 different routes in the Rhine/Main/Moselle, Danube, Seine, Rhône/Saône and Douro trade lanes next year.

Just in time for ITB Berlin, the 2026 booking preview will also be published, illustrating the variety of A-ROSA routes – from short cruises to wine and gourmet cruises to festive cruises – as well as the Premium all-inclusive fare and the associated pricing system.

“The new edition of our tariff and pricing system for the 2025 season was positively received – this illustrates our very good booking situation. All our trade routes are also very popular – the Danube and Seine in particular have increased significantly compared to the previous year, but also the Rhine thanks to our new ships A-ROSA ALEA and CLEA. For us, these are clear signs that our product is well received in the market and that is why we are focusing above all on continuity in 2026,” explains Rolf-Dieter Maltzahn, Managing Director of A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH.

The new flexible A-ROSA Premium fare offers the option of combining the attractive included services with additional offers such as arrival and departure, hotel accommodation, transfers, excursions or the Premium Plus beverage package.

Most of the successful routes will also be retained, but further optimized according to guest wishes. Most of the innovations are on the two best-known European trade routes – the Danube and the Rhine.

The focus on “Relaxed Cruising” – i.e. a particularly decelerating and at the same time intense travel experience – will be further intensified in the 2026 season.

That’s why, among other things, the number of departures of the 9-night trip “Danube Panorama” has been more than doubled. On board the family ship A-ROSA FLORA, guests can visit the three capitals of Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava as well as Tulln, Linz and Esztergom.

The equally popular ports of Melk and Dürnstein have been integrated into various Danube routes with a stay of at least five hours at the request of many guests – for example, on the 4-night tour “Danube Advent Time”, which is undertaken by four of the five A-ROSA ships on the Danube.

A further six ships in the fleet sail on the Rhine, which offers the greatest variety of routes with over 30 different voyages.

In 2026, the 7-night cruises on the northern Rhine will have specific focal points, which are primarily oriented towards long stays in the metropolises of the Netherlands and Belgium.

The “Rhine Experience North” route, for example, combines overnight visits to Antwerp and Nijmegen with stops in Ghent, Rotterdam and Duisburg.

Thanks to a long stay, guests can now get to know the Belgian capital Brussels intensively on the route “Rhine Experience Netherlands & Belgium” – Dutch ports such as Willemstad and Vlissingen offer an effective counterpoint.

Equally rich in contrasts will be the trip “Rhine Experience IJsselmeer”, whose stops in maritime fishing villages have been supplemented by a stay in Amsterdam.

If you want to experience the nightlife of the Dutch capital, the “Rhine Experience Amsterdam & Rotterdam” is the best choice.

The main route of the A-ROSA SENA allows a visit from Amsterdam until late in the evening and has been supplemented by the ports of Nijmegen and Düsseldorf in the 2026 season. A long stay in Rotterdam and overnight stay in Antwerp will also remain.

Also new in the programme for 2026 is the 7-night cruise “Rhine Wine & Enjoyment” on the A-ROSA SILVA. From 25 September, the departure will take you along the impressive vineyards of the Rhine and spoil guests on board with varied winegrowers’ menus and tastings.

The trips for the 2026 season can be booked at travel agencies, online and at the A-ROSA Service Center. The strictly limited A-ROSA best price is expected to be valid until 31 July 2025. Sales partners can find more information about the routes as well as the tariff and pricing system in the new booking preview.
