Waterways are subject to closure because of lock repairs, drought, flooding, or generally unsafe conditions. Therefore, all announced routes are subject to change at any time. 
These kinds of changes happen rarely, but passengers must be prepared for this eventuality. 
In the event of closure of canals or rivers, an alternate route of equal interest will be chosen. 
Change in route will not be accepted as the basis for cancellation of the cruise by a passenger.

All belongings are carried at your own risk. We strongly advise you to travel with as few valuables as possible. 
This includes jewellery and large amounts of cash.
Before leaving home, also confirm that your Homeowner’s Insurance covers all losses in case of theft.
