After more than three decades across ocean, river and expedition cruising, our founder saw an opportunity others had overlooked.
River Expeditions was born to bring the spirit and mindset of expedition travel to Europe's waterways: going deeper into places others pass by, and revealing new perspectives on destinations we think we already know.
Three decades on these rivers — and far beyond them.
A career built on exploration: over 33 years in international cruise and expedition travel — Excursion Manager, Cruise Director and Expedition Leader since 1993, with professional travel to more than 130 countries.
Genuine expedition credentials: expeditions to the North Pole, and a career built across both Antarctic and High Arctic voyages — the same expedition discipline now being brought to Europe's rivers.
A global network: 15 years in senior sales and marketing leadership for an expedition operator, with an active network across the international travel and tour trade.
Leadership drawn from the world's leading expedition and river operators — combining polar expedition heritage with river-cruise commercial discipline.
