The 110-passenger, all-suite Debussy will join sister Riverside Ravel and the larger Riverside Mozart.

As earlier reported, Riverside Bach and Riverside Mahler are going on charter to Uniworld Boutique River Cruises as Super Ship Victoria and Elizabeth in 2024 and 2025, respectively, each under a three-year bareboat charter. Mahler is meanwhile operating as Advance by Transcend for Transcend Cruises through the 2024 season.

Debussy's March 23 debut

Riverside Debussy is set to operate more than 40 departures in 2024, with its inaugural voyage embarking March 23 in Brussels. The six-night cruise to Amsterdam will call at Ghent, Belgium; Middleburg, Germany; and Vissingen, Wilemstad, Dordrecht and Rotterdam, Netherlands. 

The fleet will be operating itineraries along the Rhine, Rhône, Main and Danube rivers.

'Riverside’s three elegant ships are floating, luxury boutique hotels that bring guests on immersive and all-inclusive, Europe vacations,' said Jen Halboth, CEO of Riverside Luxury Cruises, Americas.

€500 on-board credit

To mark Debussy's debut and the holiday season, Riverside is offering €500 on-board credit per suite when travelers book an all-inclusive fare on a 2024 sailing. The credit can go toward a spa treatment; a Vintage Room exclusive, gourmet dégustation and wine pairing; or a private shore excursion.

The credit is based on double occupancy and applicable for new 'Premium All-inclusive with Excursions' bookings aboard itineraries of at least seven nights in 2024 when bookings are made from Dec. 1-28, 2023. The credit cannot be combined with Riverside's waived single supplement offer, and additional restrictions may apply.
