This was my second river cruise. The worst thing about this cruise had nothing to do with the ship, but it was the unusually hot weather in Budapest; however, by the time we got to Passau the weather was beautiful. At one point on our stop in Vienna, one of my other group members and I went back into the city to shop (after the planned excursion) and as we were on our way back to the ship, three of our regular dining crew members spotted us and safely escorted us the rest of the way back to the ship.

I really liked the itinerary on this cruise better than the Rhine River, however I believe some of the scenery was more beautiful on the Rhine. I especially liked the small town of Deurnstein, Salzburg (my personal favorite), and Passau. We had some really good guides in every port, and ended up adding Munich to the end of our trip. I felt like all of the staff, especially our dining crew, were extremely helpful and nice. If I could ask for the same crew again, I would. They made our trip so much more enjoyable! The ship was nice, our room was perfect - I can't think of anything that could have been better.
