The last days of spring see a fantastic choice of May cruise itineraries available, as Europe starts to enjoy a noticeably warmer climate and much of the world starts to welcome the summer season.
Legendary capital cities like Paris, Amsterdam, Budapest and Vienna are all yours to explore during a river cruise in May, along with a host of historic towns and cities. Alternatively, you could visit the river of gold in Portugal, as the Douro's sun-kissed valleys offer the perfect place to sail.
