Barrhead Travel has a long history with Riviera Travel, who create an incredible range of touring holidays that are culturally immersive and boast miraculous attention to detail. We’re proud to offer Riviera Travel tours to our customers and here are eight reasons why!

They offer on-land tours and river cruises

Being true travel experts, Riviera Travel know that some destinations are best explored by road and others by river. Each itinerary has been allocated to the most appropriate mode of transport available.

Experienced tour managers and local guides

On each itinerary you’ll be joined by an experienced tour manager (some of them have 30 years’ experience) and a local guide who has first-hand knowledge of the local area. On top of proving their in-depth knowledge during the selection process, all guides are also engaging speakers. The bar is set high.

Their tours take place all over the world

Whether it’s a river cruise along the Danube or a voyage to Antarctica, there aren’t many places that Riviera Travel’s itineraries don’t reach.

Award-winning reputation

Riviera Travel currently hold two Which? Recommended Provider awards: Package Holiday Providers and River Cruises. They have also been awarded ‘Best Value for Money’ by Travel Weekly.
