Fabulous welcome, beautiful room and shower room. A good start.
Our balcony cabin looked out on to a dock wall in Bordeaux, but we thought that won't be for very long: how wrong we were! About two full days were spent looking at this or a grain silo (Blaye), out of the whole cruise. Not the Scenic cruise we had expected when we booked.
The wine tasting and dinner on the Sunday in the chateau were excellent and brilliantly organised. That and the final dinner were the best two of the week. The others were average to good and some times lower than average. One night the main course, fish, was stone cold. Another night the medium steak was definitely rare.
