 See for yourself why our state-of-the-art ms River Discovery — launched in Spring 2007 — is the most elegant river cruise ship navigating Europe today. She’s both modern and classic, with a 6-star ambiance yet a friendly and casual attitude. You'll feel like a very special guest as soon as you step foot aboard, entering a world of warm colors, gleaming woods, and supple leathers. Simply put, the River Discovery offers you more of the things you love about river cruising with Vantage.
Staterooms are designed for more luxury and comfort — 83% of staterooms have french balconies and all staterooms have twin beds that can convert to a double. Of course, all staterooms are outside and have a private bathroom with shower and a flat-screen TV with in-room movies and CNN. For a more spacious stateroom with upgraded amenities, treat yourself to a Junior Suite. Then again, why not go for the best of the best and reserve the magnificent Owner’s Suite? It can accommodate as many as four people in luxurious style.
Public spaces are airy and welcoming, from the forward observation deck to the intimate Discovery Lounge aft. And, with a 4:1 guest to staff ratio the service is exceptional. Please note, smoking is not permitted indoors; there is a designated smoking area outside.
