For a more casual atmosphere, guests can dine alfresco on the Aquavit Terrace while cruising past medieval castles, vineyards, and charming riverside villages.

Onboard programming includes destination-focused lectures, hands-on cooking demonstrations, and classical performances that reflect each region’s artistic legacy.
