Loved the small number of passengers. Loved everything about the trip, but the excursions could have been better. Organization and communication about the excursions had a lot of room for improvement. The tour director did not tell us a lot about the tours and the free time was extremely limited except for the last night in Germany. The ship was often moved from the time the tour started until we were ready to get back on the ship, making it difficult to maneuver transportation. The day trip to Austria to see where they filmed The Sound of Music conveyed nothing about it involving 2+ hours each way on a bus!

The food was delicious, the booze package was reasonable, the bartender and staff were adorable and the wait staff could not have been friendlier. We really didn't understand what and when the food was available a the Bistro/end of the ship.
