Join Phil & Paula Nuttall on our CEO Special: Rhine & Moselle River Cruise 2026
If you’ve ever thought about trying a river cruise but felt a little unsure about what to expect, our special escorted CEO Cruise in 2026 is the perfect opportunity. Hosted by Travel Village Group’s very own Phil and Paula Nuttall, this exclusive hosted sailing combines the charm of river cruising, on the Rhine & Moselle, with the comfort of travelling as part of our Travel Village family.
River cruising is a wonderful way to discover Europe. You can expect a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, with smaller ships that feel welcoming and easy to get around. Every day brings a new destination, but you only need to unpack once. For first-time cruisers, this makes everything simple and stress-free.
On this cruise, you’ll also have the reassurance of travelling with Phil and Paula, who will be on hand throughout the journey. You won’t just be a guest on board – you’ll be part of our Travel Village community.
