Finding alone time is increasingly easy on river cruise ships, many of which are going all out to cater to solo travellers. Take Riviera Travel River Cruises – every year the line operates a number of sailings designed specifically for people going it alone. On these cruises, all cabins are single-occupancy only and there are no single supplement charges. In 2024, Riviera’s solo-friendly cruises include sailings along the Danube, Douro, Rhine, Rhône and Seine.
