My wife and I had visited England, France, and Italy, but had not been on a river cruise and seen any part of Austria, Germany, and Hungary. We were impressed by the care that the cruise staff showed us in making sure that we were comfortable and our needs satisfied. We visited many places we had wanted to see for a long time and felt that our tours of Salzburg, Vienna, and Budapest were the highlights of our trip. The excursions were informative and enjoyable.We loved touring the cities, meeting the locals, and learning about their culture and history especially their beautiful abbeys, cathedrals, and castles. We would recommend travelers to Budapest stay an extra day or two to take in all of the sights that city offers. Don't miss the excursion to the horse farm where you will see the Csikos, Hungarian cowboys/girls, in action.

Our cabin was clean, the service was outstanding,and the food was delicious and varied.
