Riviera Travel has extended two of its current offers to provide additional flexibility.

Both offers were originally scheduled to end on 28 February, but will now run to 31 March 2021.

The first, a fully flexible booking promise, allows guests to change a booking for free up to 45 days before travel on 2021 holidays, and until 30 June for 2022 holidays.

In addition, Riviera is offering up to €400 on-board credit on select European river cruises, available on sailings in 2021 and 2022.

Riviera has 27 Europe and worldwide river cruises, plus eight European solo traveller river cruises, currently on sale.

Destinations include the Danube, Rhine, Cairo and Mekong. Five Adriatic yacht cruises, and a further two for solo travellers, are available this year. A 2022 voyage on the Royal Clipper is also on sale.

Riviera Travel chief commercial officer Jim Forward said: “We’ve had a particularly positive response from the trade to these offers so are pleased to be able to extend their availability.

“With the assurances we have in place, plus the on-board credit offer, now is the time for agents to encourage their customers to look to the future and start planning their ideal holiday on a risk-free basis.”

In addition, Riviera has a ‘Holiday Happiness Guaranteed’ assurance concept, which, the company says, provides a “raft of benefits on cruises and tours”. It includes the following:

• A promise to bring home and fully refund any guest who is on a tour or cruise of eight days or more and is not completely satisfied with their holiday by the second day
• A Covid-19 cancellation policy that allows guests to transfer their holiday free of charge to a later date, if they have to cancel due to the pandemic
• Covid-19 curtailment protection, which automatically compensates any guest who has their holiday cut short as a direct consequence of the pandemic and isn’t covered by their insurance provider
