Newmarket Holidays 2011 River Cruise Programme Launched

Newmarket Holidays has launched a programme of European river cruise holidays on board MS Olympia.



    SURREY, ENGLAND, July 10, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Newmarket Holidays has launched a programme of European river cruise holidays on board MS Olympia.

The programme begins with Rhine Christmas Markets, Christmas and New Year cruises and a 'Betwixtmas' sailing between Christmas and New Year.

An Easter Cruise featuring Holland and Belgium follows the Dutch Bulbfields cruises, after which the ship begins a series of cruises throughout Summer 2011 on the Rhine and Moselle.

Popular itineraries from Amsterdam include calls at Arnhem, Cologne, Koblenz and Rudesheim, while on the Moselle the picture-book wine towns of Cochem and Bernkastel - as well as ancient Trier, Germany's oldest settlement - feature regularly.

The programme's Blue Riband voyage is the Rhine Cruise to Switzerland, which features Strasbourg, the Black Forest and the chance to visit Heidelberg, the 'Student Prince' city on the River Neckar.

Commenting on the new programme, Newmarket River Cruise Director Andy Jones, said "So many of our customers have asked us to introduce river cruise holidays that combine total relaxation and all the comforts of on-board life with some of Europe's best sightseeing, and we're sure these Olympia holidays are going to be well received."

"The ship ticks all the right boxes as far as comfortable cabins, good food and friendly crew are concerned, and with the chance to join the ship by coach from a wide range of pick-up points, at a ferry port, or even to fly out from a number of regional airports, we think we've got something for everyone," said Mr Jones.

Newmarket Holidays are one of the UK's largest privately owned tour operators, with nearly 30 years' experience of providing value for money and high standards of customer care.

Prices start at GBP479 for a six-day Rhine Cruise, with Dutch Bulbfields cruise holidays beginning at GBP289, and Rhine and Moselle cruises starting at GBP599.
