What is the Riviera difference?

1. Exceptional holiday experiences

From speaking with thousands of our guests over the years, we have learned what the main difference is between Riviera Travel and others. We aren’t just a travel company: we are a well-travelled collective. Our guests become friends - interested and interesting, they're eager to get to know each other as they travel.

Our itineraries are created by explorers with a deep understanding of each destination. They personally select every aspect of your holiday for a thoughtful balance of adventure and relaxation, authentic experiences and free time. Our guests always have the freedom to customise their adventure by adding extras such as drinks packages, hotel upgrades, enhanced experiences with our Signature tours, extensions on our river cruise and additional excursions you can add to your trip - there are always ways to make it your own.

2. Outstanding value for money

If you’ve joined one of our holidays before, you know just how great they are and how much is included in the price. If you’ve yet to join us, you’re in for a treat… ​

Unlike some of our competitors, our holidays include everything you need to enjoy your time away. Like expertly crafted itineraries (made by explorers), excursions, hand-picked accommodation, direct flights from your local airport at no extra cost, transfers and the services of a Riviera Tour Manager who’ll look after you throughout. 

Our prices are fair and straightforward — no smoke and mirrors, promotional trickery, or hidden extra fees. You’ll never find us inflating our prices just to offer artificially big discounts, the way so many of our competitors do. We just offer amazing value for money, all the time.

3.  Customer service is in our DNA

We’ve been doing what we do for nearly 40 years — which means we’ve spent more than 14,000 days making and keeping our guests happy. We’ve seen it all, and whatever ‘it’ is, our team knows how to take care of it — and of you. Even if things don’t go as planned for reasons outside of our control, you can be sure that we are on it: finding alternative travel options, organising hotels, and keeping you informed. Giving you a way to travel the world without a worry in the world.
