What is river tourism?

River tourism is a different and original way of traveling around Europe. You travel by boat, at your leisure and with whoever you want. You make the stops you choose and stay as long as you like.

More and more people are opting for this type of tourism and renting a river boat through canals and rivers.

The great advantage is that you can take a boat without a navigation permit, in addition to the excellent value for money.

¿Travel and sleep on board of a boat that I myself can drive without a license? 

Enjoy at the same time nature, culture and gastronomy from other European countries?

Of course! 

Rent your river boat

Now, all this is possible with river boats that do not need a license or experience in navigation.

Relaxation and cultural tourism come together in the river vacation to offer you exclusive landscapes, historical heritage, gastronomy and wine culture.

The rentals are adjusted to all the needs so that you can enjoy river tourism. You can rent your boat for a weekend or, if you prefer, for a vacation of 1 week or more.
