We have invested a lot of passion and care in the furnishings and amenities you will find in nickoSPIRIT’s 14 m² outside cabins. Windows on the main deck cannot be opened, but on the middle and upper deck, openable French balconies ensure you get the best views. All double beds can be separated into two singles and for storage, we provide a spacious wardrobe as well as convenient shelves in every bathroom. She is a luxurious ship and you’ll discover that the moment you step aboard.NOTE: nickoSPIRIT has a lift connecting all interior decks, but the use of stairs is required to reach the sun deck.

“This is going to be favourite place!“ Company owner Mário Ferreira decided on this in the initial planning phase. Without a doubt, the restaurant in the stern of the ship provides a casual and relaxed atmosphere that has never existed on a river ship before. The light wood colours, the sleek design – you will enjoy spending time here with the best views: The large glass front can be opened up completely and the rear terrace can also be used. Inside, the crackling noise coming from the open grill generates anticipation of something delicious.
