If, like me, you love Celebrity Cruises and their revolutionary Edge Series ships, you’re in for an incredible surprise! Celebrity Cruises is making waves once again—this time on Europe’s iconic rivers—with the launch of their brand-new premium river cruise line, Celebrity River Cruises.
Launching in 2027, Celebrity River Cruises will blend the elegance, innovation, and luxurious feel of the celebrated Edge Series with the intimate charm of river cruising. Imagine the unparalleled sophistication of Celebrity’s ocean vessels scaled perfectly to explore the heart of Europe’s most iconic cities and breathtaking landscapes.
The 2027 Celebrity River Cruises will go on sale later this year (2025), and you don’t have to go far to book them! You’ll find our award-winning service and knowledgeable, friendly team over at our sister website, RiverCruising.co.uk!
Why River Cruising, and Why Now?
Celebrity Cruises has long been a pioneer in redefining a premium experience at sea, and they’re bringing that same spirit of innovation to the rivers. With an initial order of 10 state-of-the-art ships, this new venture promises to deliver the same wow factor you’ve come to love—complete with striking design, seamless service, and unforgettable experiences—but with a focus on up-close and immersive exploration.
Whether it’s gliding down the Rhine, the Danube, or another historic European waterway, these river cruises will take you right to the heart of charming cities, medieval towns, and UNESCO World Heritage sites. And of course, you can count on the impeccable service and thoughtful details you know Celebrity provides.
What to Expect from Celebrity River Cruises
- Edge-Inspired Design: Expect sleek, contemporary interiors that rival the beauty of Celebrity’s Edge Series ships. The focus will be on creating spaces that are not only luxurious but also perfectly tailored for the river cruising experience.
- Immersive Itineraries: Discover Europe’s most enchanting destinations up close. From Amsterdam’s canals to Budapest’s grandeur, these itineraries will bring you to the doorstep of culture, history, and culinary delights.
- Exclusive Experiences: Much like the unforgettable shore excursions offered on ocean cruises, these river itineraries will include handpicked excursions designed to create authentic, memorable moments.
