Riverside Luxury Cruises announced that it is kicking off 2026 by reflecting on a standout year of achievements in 2025.

“2025 has been a truly defining year for Riverside Luxury Cruises in North America,” said Jennifer Halboth, CEO, Riverside Luxury Cruises, North America.

“Doubling our sales, earning industry recognitions and building meaningful consortia partnerships has validated everything we set out to achieve when we launched the brand less than three years ago, and we’re just getting started,” added Halbroth.

The company said in a press release that Riverside delivered a breakthrough sales year in 2025, doubling year-over-year sales from 2024 and outpacing broader cruise industry growth.

“The growth we experienced is a testament to the trust our guests and partners place in the Riverside brand,” said Halboth. “Doubling our sales while maintaining the highest standards of luxury and service is an achievement we are incredibly proud of as we head into 2026.”

The company added that it also strengthened its global presence by forming strategic partnerships with leading luxury travel consortia.

In July, Riverside was named a preferred partner of Ensemble, a premier boutique travel agency consortium representing top-tier agencies across the United States and Canada.

Riverside was also accepted into Virtuoso’s global portfolio of luxury travel partners, which includes 2,500 preferred suppliers across 100 countries.

“Being welcomed into Ensemble and Virtuoso in the same year was a significant milestone for Riverside,” added Halboth. “Travel advisors are at the heart of luxury travel, and their belief in Riverside has been instrumental to our growth in 2025.”

Building on the momentum, Riverside Luxury Cruises said that it enters 2026 with plans to expand its itineraries and introduce new themed cruises, including golf- and beer-focused journeys. Guests can also look forward to fresh surprises in the already stellar culinary program.
