The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Best for relaxed river cruising. This is an ideal choice if you want a comfortable, modern motor boat for a leisurely European inland waterway holiday, think the Loire, Rhône, or similar calm rivers rather than coastal sailing. The 2024 build means you're getting current amenities without any wear-and-tear concerns.
Solid comfort features. Air conditioning, heating, and a bow thruster (useful for tight mooring spots on narrow rivers) show this boat is designed for genuine ease of use. Three cabins sleeping up to eight people work well for family groups or two couples, and the galley basics, fridge and electric toilet, handle the essentials without fuss.
Genuinely good value. At €3,449 per week, you're paying a fair rate for a brand-new, well-equipped motor cruiser with modern climate control. For international guests flying in from the US or UK, river cruising avoids long transfer times, most European river bases are within 1, 2 hours of major airports.
One practical note: This is a motor boat, not a sailing vessel, so there's no wind in your favour or challenges with seamanship, but equally, you're entirely fuel-dependent and limited to inland waterways rather than coastal exploration. Check your operator's (Riverly's) fuel policy before booking.

Based at Saverne, in Saverne, France. Cruiser Premium+ 6/8 Pers. is operated by Riverly.
Saverne sits on the Marne-Rhine Canal in Alsace, offering easy access to France's inland waterway network rather than coastal cruising. Week 1 charters typically explore the canal system northward toward Strasbourg or westward into the Moselle valley, with locks and small towns punctuating a leisurely pace suited to first-time barge or canal boat hirers. This is a freshwater cruising base for those seeking medieval towns and vineyard landscapes rather than sea sailing.
