Riverside Luxury Cruises is pleased to announce that on August 16th in the medieval town of Viviers, France, Anouchka Gerlach christened the Riverside Ravel in a festive ceremony ahead of its inaugural sailing on the Rhône River.
Christens Riverside Ravel
This is the second ship to launch for Riverside Luxury Cruises, a Hamburg-based company founded by siblings Anouchka and Gregor Gerlach in late 2022. The Riverside Ravel will tour the Rhône River between Lyon and Arles and similar to Riverside Mozart, who is sailing the Danube this season, will continue to set a new standard in luxury river cruising. Riverside Ravel will provide guests with exemplary food and beverage, service, excursions, and wellness offerings, in addition to its elegant all-suite accommodations and a butler service for all guests.
Godmother and Co-Founder Anouchka Gerlach
“We are delighted that with the launch of Riverside Ravel we can now offer our guests the French way of life. The cuisine is of course tailored to the region, and ashore our crew has prepared a variety of special experiences,” said Anouchka Gerlach, co-founder of Riverside Luxury Cruises.
