Transport Supply and Demand in the River Cruise Ports

Tijekom 21. stoljeće riječno krstarenje postaje jedno od najbrže rastućih industrija, što je potaklo velika ulaganja u luke i brodove za riječno krstarenje. Luke kao što su Pariz, Amsterdam vrlo su jednostavno konstruirane te posjeduju lokaciju za prihvat plovila i za sidrenje. Luke su najčešće smještene u centru grada ili neposrednoj blizini centra grada uz šetnice te u blizini autobusnih i željezničkih stanica. Ostali objekti koji su smješteni na području luke usmjereni su na pružanje usluga brodu, putnicima i posadi. U hrvatskom lukama koje prihvaćaju brodove za riječno krstarenje ponuda je značajno manja od ponude dostupne u lukama kao što su Pariz i Amsterdam. Luka Vukovar zaprima brodove za riječno krstarenje koji plove Dunavom, ali su potrebna daljnja ulaganja u povećavanje kvalitete pristaništa i povećanja ponude.During the 21st century River cruise has become one of the fastest growing industries, sparking large investments in ports and ships for the river cruise. Ports such as Paris, Amsterdam are a very simply constructed having a place for the reception of vessels and anchoring. Ports are usually placed in the center or near the city center along the promenade and near bus and train stations. Other facilities that are located in the port area are focused on providing services to the ship, passengers and crew. Croatian ports for river cruise offer significantly less than th same kind of ports in Paris and Amsterdam. Vukovar port receives ships for river cruises that sail the Danube, but they need further investments in order to increase the quality of port and increase supply
