RIVIERA TRAVEL
Founded in 1984, Riviera Travel has grown from a small UK-based tour operator into one of Europe’s leading escorted tour and river cruise specialists. With a reputation built on exceptional customer service, carefully curated itineraries, and outstanding value for money, the company serves thousands of travellers each year who seek immersive and enriching experiences across the globe.
Initially established to organize coach tours to Paris for English travellers, Riviera Travel has continually evolved its offerings over the decades. Today, it provides a wide array of escorted tours, ocean cruises, and river cruises to more than 60 countries across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. The company’s journey reflects a consistent focus on combining cultural insight, historical context, and local expertise to deliver memorable and meaningful travel experiences.
A key hallmark of Riviera Travel is its dedication to quality without compromise. All trips are designed with input from a team of experienced travel experts, many of whom have personally lived or worked in the destinations offered. This insider knowledge ensures that each itinerary includes not just the major highlights but also hidden gems and authentic local encounters that enrich the overall journey. Riviera is also known for its transparent pricing, which includes flights, transfers, accommodations, guided tours, and often meals—without hidden extras.
With over four decades of expertise, Riviera Travel has positioned itself as a trusted name in the travel industry. Its blend of professionalism, authenticity, and passion for exploration ensures that travellers can experience the world with confidence, comfort, and curiosity.
