Set sail in style
River cruises through the heart of Europe and ocean voyages to Italy, the Greek Isles, the Caribbean, and Alaska, all planned by Trips Ahoy Travel.
Why Cruise With Us
Every cruise line has a personality
Some ships are intimate and quiet, others are packed with entertainment. Some glide through medieval towns, others cross open ocean to a new island every day. At Trips Ahoy Travel, we know the differences and match you with the cruise line, ship, and stateroom that fit the way you travel.
We handle the flights, transfers, and pre- or post-cruise hotel stays, and we stay with you before, during, and after the trip.
River Cruises
Europe’s rivers, up close
Small ships, no crowds, and a new town outside your window every morning. You unpack once and dock right in the heart of each stop.

Good Questions
Common questions, expert answers
Don’t see your question? Reach out. We answer every one personally.
River cruises use small ships, dock right in town, and keep the scenery close all day. Ocean cruises have bigger ships with more on board and cover more distance. We’ll help you decide which fits your style.
Both include your meals, wine and beer with lunch and dinner, and guided excursions in port. Each line has its own extras, and we’ll walk you through exactly what’s covered.
The season runs from May through September. Summer brings the warmest weather and longest days, while May and September often have lower prices and fewer crowds.
River cruises and Alaska cruisetours fill up early. Booking 12 to 18 months ahead gives you the best choice of dates and staterooms.
