Sail Date: Apr 2018
Cabin: Outside Stateroom with French Balcony

Met at airport with private ride to hotel. Easy check in. Down side fast train from Paris to Dijon turned into a 4 hour bus ride because trains were on strike. Food was good, 2 hour dinners got tiring however they do offer a lighter meal in lounge most nights which was a good alternative. Last 2 days of cruise they had cookout on deck for lunch as an alternate option. City tours for most part were good. Optional tours we took were very good. About half the folks were middle age and other half older. Nightly port talks were good and short to the point. Happy hour every day was nice but sometimes got very crowded and hard to get service. Surprised at organ concert in one church we went to. Guests brought on twice for on board entertainment. Nightly music by on board "piano" player was ok, nothing great.
