Creator's Key Takeaways

one of the things you may notice on a river cruise is that they have free WiFi wow you usually don't get that on an ocean cruise right

the cabins tend to be much smaller in fact a big sweep on a river cruise ship can be mere 300 Square ft kind of thing where on a ocean cruise you can get some suites up to almost 2,000 square ft

seasickness motion sickness really not that big of a deal on River Cruises that's that's a good plus

river cruise you can actually sometimes take a picture of the Eiffel Tower right from your cruise ship they get to dock into the small towns they get to go right into cities
