Dining on the VIVA Ruby is a sophisticated affair, featuring fine cuisine served in an elegant restaurant setting. The menu is crafted to highlight local culinary traditions while offering a diverse selection of international dishes to suit all palates. Guests enjoy a full-board meal plan, with all meals included. The dining experience is flexible, with open seating that allows for a relaxed and social atmosphere.

The VIVA Ruby focuses on immersive land-based exploration rather than water-based activities. Guests are invited to participate in guided walking tours that delve into the rich history and culture of the towns and cities along the river route. These excursions are led by knowledgeable guides who provide deep insights into local architecture, history, and traditions. In addition to city walks, the itinerary includes opportunities for scenic nature hikes and visits to cultural landmarks.

Whether wandering through historic squares or enjoying a quiet stroll along the riverbanks, the land experiences are designed to connect guests with the heart of the region.

Booking & Travel FAQ
How does the booking process work?
Select a cabin and departure on VIVA Ruby, and we send a real-time inquiry to the operator. After availability is confirmed, you receive a booking confirmation by email and secure your spot with a deposit.
When do I need to pay?
A deposit (usually 25-35%) is due upon confirmation. The remaining balance is typically due 4-8 weeks before departure, depending on the operator.
What documents will I receive?
After your final payment, you'll receive a travel voucher with meeting point, embarkation time, airport transfer details, packing tips, and your full itinerary.
How do I get to the cruise ship?
Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary. Some operators arrange airport pickup, group flights or transfers; check your booking confirmation and travel voucher for what is included. We recommend arriving in the gateway city at least one day before departure, unless your operator provides different instructions.
What clothing and footwear should I bring?
Bring sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes with good grip for shore visits, and comfortable clothing suited to your destination's weather. Pack breathable layers, a sun hat and sun protection for warm regions; for colder or wetter conditions, add warm layers and a waterproof, windproof jacket. Check the operator's packing list for landing footwear, any supplied equipment and specific requirements.
Can I cancel or change my booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator and are in your confirmation. Generally, the earlier you cancel the higher the refund. Changes depend on availability, contact us as soon as possible.
