MS Riviera Resplendence, Riviera Travel

Life aboard MS Riviera Resplendence is shaped by the rhythm of the river — calm, elegant and endlessly rewarding. Each morning begins with the gentle glow of daylight through your balcony windows. After breakfast, guests might join a guided tour of a historic town, visit a vineyard for a tasting, or simply explore at their own pace by bicycle. Back on board, the ship’s relaxed atmosphere invites you to slow down. Perhaps enjoy a light lunch, unwind on the sun deck, or indulge in a massage before an afternoon drink on deck. As the evening unfolds, conversations flow in the Panorama Lounge as live music plays softly in the background. Dinner is an event to savour, with beautifully prepared dishes paired with fine wines, followed by a nightcap beneath the stars. Every day on MS Riviera Resplendence is a celebration of discovery, comfort and connection where the beauty of the journey is matched only by the warmth of the experience.
