First river cruise ship started!

River cruise ship NickoVision had the honour of 'opening' the river cruise season again this month in Germany. The Nicko Cruises ship sailed with only 40 passengers. The ship can carry up to 220 passengers on a river cruise....

The NickoVision sailed a 12-day cruise on the Danube, Main and Rhine from Passau to Düsseldorf. On 1 June, the water level in Passau was too low, so passengers embarked at another place. Therefore, the passengers embarked at another place.

These months are also difficult for shipping companies and tour operators, but they are doing everything they can to ensure the safety of passengers and crew, so that they can once again enjoy cruising. Unfortunately, theBritish Specialist Leisure Group (SLG, better known as Shearings) hasgone bankrupt. In Europe, the company is best known for its Shearings coaches, which made many of the holiday trips, especially for the over-50s.

Hopefully, it will remain so and all shipping companies and tour operators will be able to offer their beautiful trips again.
