River Cruises
On a Shearings river cruise you're guaranteed to enjoy stunning scenery and visits to fascinating cities, towns and villages.
Our cruises travel on some of the world's most picturesque waterways, and our smaller ships can get you closer to your port of call. You'll get to see places that would otherwise be inacdessible - it's a great way to explore.
See ever-changing scenery along the Rhine and Moselle? Or enjoy Holland in bloom in the springtime? And fore something a little more exotic, a cruise on the Nile, Mekong or Yangtze will take you past some of the world's most beautiful ancient treasures.
It takes years of experience, a commitment to superb service, the ideal itineraries, the friendliest crews, a fleet of fine ships and, above all, an eye for good value to make the perfect river cruise. And with Shearings you can relax - because all that is guaranteed.

All ashore that's going ashore
You'll be seeing plenty of unforgettable sights from the comfort of your cabin or a seat on the deck. But if you'd like to enjoy a taste of the local attractions and culture when we moor up, there are plenty of excursions laid on so you can experience much more of the countries you're sailing through.
Breath-taking scenery throughout your cruise
You can never be bored on board because, when you're afloat, the view from the decks or your cabin is constantly changing. Since we cruise at a stately pace, you'll have time to drink in some of the most gorgeous landscapes you'll ever see and to take all those photographs to share with friends back home.
Tasty dishes served fresh every day
Down in the galley, the chef and his brigade are always hard at work preparing delicious dishes from the freshest ingredients - so you'll never go hungry, and you need never have the same meal twice. Food has always been a vital part of the cruising experience - and we're delighted to maintain the tradition.
