Swan Hellenic sails ahead of competitors in cruise programme sell out

Swan Hellenic’s dedicated 2010 River Cruise programmes are now fully sold out. Trips around the Danube, Rhône and Rhine are now employing a waiting list – dependent on cancellations – for anyone wishing to book a Swan Hellenic river cruise this year.

In response to this strong demand, Swan Hellenic has launched its 2011 rivers programme of cruises on the Danube, Rhône and Rhine early, and significant bookings have been received in the first week following the launch of the brochure.

Colin Stone, Managing Director Swan Hellenic, comments:
“We are delighted at the positive response to the launch of our 2011 river cruise programme, with a considerable number of bookings received in the first week since launching.  There was strong demand for our 2010 river programme, so we are not really surprised at the level of interest already expressed in next year’s cruises. In 2011 we are offering one cruise on the Danube and one on the Rhine, and three on the Rhône to satisfy demand.”

The Swan Hellenic rivers programme is operated on modern river cruisers, in partnership with A-Rosa, who offer quality vessels featuring all outside cabins – many with Juliette balconies.  The Swan Hellenic distinction of inclusive value includes a comprehensive programme of shore excursions, transfers to and from your river cruiser and all gratuities on board and ashore. An eminent Guest Speaker and dedicated Swan Hellenic Cruise Director accompany each cruise, ensuring an enjoyable holiday experience.  There is even a choice of travel arrangements included in your cruise fare: you can choose to fly to and from the Danube, Rhône and Rhine departure points or – on the Rhône and Rhine – you can also opt to travel by train.
