See where every Tauck ship is right now, live from her AIS transponder. Tauck charters its own riverboats for European itineraries, and the fleet clusters on the Danube and the Rhine through the season.
Tauck does not own its riverboats outright — it charters and operates a dedicated European fleet — so you will see the ships concentrated on the Danube, Rhine, Mosel, Rhône and Seine through the season. Tauck itineraries tend to spend longer in each town than the volume lines do, which means its ships read as "in port" more often than at sea.
Every Tauck ship we track, with her latest AIS report. Ship names link to deck plans, staterooms and current sailings; ports link to our cruise port guide for that harbor.

Find her in the fleet table on this page — every Tauck ship we track is listed with her current status, and the map above plots them all live. Each ship also links to her own page, which carries her position, deck plans and current sailings.
Positions come from each ship's own AIS transponder. Near the coast they arrive every few minutes; mid-ocean they relay by satellite and can be a few hours old. Every row on this page states how fresh its last report is, so you are never guessing.
Yes — free, no account, no app, nothing to install. Pavlus Travel publishes it because the people who track ships are the people who sail on them, and when you are ready to book we would like the chance to quote you.
We track 19 Tauck ships. 16 are reporting a live position as this page loaded — the rest are between AIS reports, which is normal in remote waters or during a yard period.
That is what we do. Pavlus Travel has negotiated cruise pricing for over 30 years, guarantees the lowest price on every Tauck sailing we sell, and charges no booking fees. Call 1-800-528-9300 for a free quote.
