What a joy it is to fish from the deck of your boat as you cruise along! Whether you’re an experienced angler or simply curious to enjoy fishing with your family, explore our getaway ideas for a fishing weekend.

In addition to your boat, Riverly offers bike rentals you can take on board. Use them to stretch your legs along the towpaths, ride on dedicated cycling trails to explore nearby villages and attractions, or simply run errands during your cruise. Here are some getaway ideas for a cycling-themed holiday or weekend.

To help you prepare for your cruise and feel confident that this is the perfect holiday for you, here are a few common questions, answered to ease any concerns. First of all, no prior experience? No problem. Our boats require no licence, are easy to handle, and allow for smooth, gentle manoeuvring. If your top holiday priority is relaxation, rest assured: you won’t be standing at the helm all day. Every boat model is designed with comfort, practicality, and full onboard equipment to make your life easier.

When it comes to piloting, it’s truly a breeze, leaving you plenty of time to unwind and enjoy. And what about safety? Everything on board is under control: handrails along wide walkways, spacious and stable decks, and even life jackets provided. When it’s time for a stopover, simply lock your boat and head out to explore the area freely. Still have questions? Take advantage of the handover at your departure base: our team will guide you through the boat and give you a short introduction—just enough to put your mind at ease before you set off.

Discover the finest vineyards and savour the richness of their aromas: aboard your license-free boat, enjoy a river cruise along the Wine Route as you explore the scenic slopes of renowned wine estates.
