About MS Mozart

MS Mozart belongs to CroisiEurope's Classic series and entered service in 1987. Built to navigate the lock systems and bridge clearances of European waterways, she measures roughly 121 metres in length and accommodates up to 209 guests in 105 staterooms across 4 passenger decks.

Founded by the Schmitter family in Strasbourg in 1976, CroisiEurope operates the largest river fleet in Europe and is one of the few lines purpose-built for the Loire, the Elbe, the Gironde estuary and the Guadalquivir. Its paddle-wheel ships and shallow-draft vessels open up rivers that mainstream operators cannot reach. MS Mozart reflects that brand DNA — from the design of her public spaces to the inclusions in her base fare.

The ship's typical home waters are the Danube, where she runs 4 distinct itineraries during the operating season. Repositioning sailings, themed wine cruises and Christmas-market voyages may be added in autumn and early winter.

Background reading: our long-form explainer of the CroisiEurope fleet philosophy covers the design choices that distinguish Classic ships from the rest of the European fleet.
