Not only is it exciting to learn about two more luxurious cruise ships, Riviera River Cruises is also taking a departure from its tradition of naming vessels after famous British authors. In the case of these two, the company is opting to showcase the Riviera name for improved branding.

Marilyn Conroy, Executive Vice President Sales and Marketing North America for Riviera River Cruises announced the news, saying:

With Riviera Radiance and Riviera Rose, our new ships launching in 2025, we’re moving away from using the names of famous British authors and proudly putting our own out there on the bow.

Meanwhile, Conroy explained that Riviera Radiance will also be a new style of ship, “representing the height of luxurious river cruising,” adding:

Its split-level bar and restaurant will give it a spacious feel, its third restaurant will offer unique tasting menus and it will also have the largest suites in our fleet. We’re looking forward to sailing aboard these new ships with you next year.
