Wanted to visit Prague. This was the perfect cruise for us. Very much enjoyed Prague. We took the extra excursion in Prague which is must do. There is not enough time to enjoy all of Prague without staying a few extra days. We very much enjoyed the river cruise. The ship was fantastic and the staff was the best I've ever experienced. I highly recommend the Silver Sipper package. The food on board the ship was excellent. The chef and his crew did a fantastic job. The wait staff went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. We especially enjoyed Marlon. He asked us our first names on the first night, and after that always addressed us by our name. I don't know how he can remember so many people's names. Our Cruise Director was outstanding. She went out of her way to make sure everything went perfectly. The cruise staff went above and beyond to help my wife when she came down with strep throat. They coordinated doctor visits when we were on shore. It would be nice if the boat had at least a medic on board for minor illnesses and issues.

The only negative issue I have to bring up is the bus we were assigned from Trier, Germany to Paris. Our bus was an older model than the other buses in our caravan. The seats were exceptionally crowded. No one could recline their seats. The bus might be alright to transport children on short trips, but it was totally unacceptable for transporting adults on a five hour bus ride.
