Short European river cruises? Last minute bookings?

Hi there,

I recently did a 4 night/5 day Bordeaux-Bordeaux river cruise with CroisiEurope (Princesse d'Aquitaine) and thought that it was fantastic (Mrs Luftaom and I were half the age of all the other guests) - I'd love to do another.

The catch is that I am time poor and there aren't (m)any other 4 night (or shorter) cruises over a weekend - which is kind of what I am looking for.

In Koblenz a number of years ago I recall seeing one of the boats plying the length of the Rhine having a sandwich board out the front advertising last minute (or late booking) discounted short cruises (no doubt trying to fill in cabins which would otherwise go empty between bookings for parts of the trip up and down the Rhine). I regrettably didn't note the details.

Does anyone know if there is a site which does last minute or late notice, short European river cruise bookings (even 1 or 2 nights)?

Any other related helpful suggestions would be very welcome.
