Wonderful, conscientious and attentive staff. Comfortable, well appointed stateroom. Excellent tour guides. Amazing food. Terrific fellow travelers. I have only superlatives for the Romantic Danube river cruise I took. As a solo traveler, I found myself easily included in all the activities, never without good conversation with friendly people.

I found each daily tour extremely well presented by knowledgeable, personable and well spoken guides who gave rich, historical background to the site, town or city we were visiting. I loved walking the cobblestoned streets and visiting gardens, historic buildings, churches, monasteries, markets and an opera house I'd only read about before. I enjoyed having enough free time to go off on my own to a museum, to have coffee and the local pastries at the cafes, and to spend time in the elegant shopping areas of the beautiful old cities and towns. I even enjoyed finding my way via the local public transportation systems!

The food aboard ship was delicious and plentiful, well presented and always fresh. I was most delighted by the dinners having some choices that reflected the cuisine of the area we were visiting. The chef and his staff were quite amazing.
