CroisiEurope

Founded in 1976, CroisiEurope is a French cruise operator specialising in small-ship cruising. The company operates a fleet of 8 vessels, each designed to carry between 80 and 159 passengers, offering a more intimate cruising experience than larger ocean-going ships.

The Fleet

CroisiEurope's modern fleet includes recently built ships alongside established vessels. The Elbe Princesse II (2018) and Elbe Princesse (2016) are among the newest additions, each carrying 81 and 80 passengers respectively. The Miguel Torga and Gil Eanes, both launched in 2015–2016, accommodate 130 and 132 passengers.

Older vessels in the fleet include the Fernao de Magalhaes (2003, 142 passengers), Modigliani (2001, 159 passengers), Michelangelo (2000, 154 passengers) and Mistral (1999, 157 passengers). This mix of newer and established ships allows the operator to serve varied cruise itineraries with consistent quality across its range.
