Additional details
The cruise was wonderful! I would highly recommend traveling from Nuremberg to Budapest (not the other way around). We visited cities we never would have such as Regensberg, Passau and Melk along with Vienna and Budapest. The crew was incredible; they were all helpful, accommodating, attentive and extremely kind and competent. We had a much better time than we imagined we would. I really liked the casual dinning, the excursions and entertainment on board was excellent. The time went by fast and they keep you as active as you'd like. Typically, a bus tour or walking tour is offered, with time at the end to explore on your own. You have the option of meeting up for a return ride to the ship or walking/cabbing it back on your own. Well worth the money and a fantastic way to see Europe. I can't stress enough how great the crew was, they really made everyone feel welcome and made the trip one of the best we've had.
Cabin Review
Small but well organized. The housekeeper (Lilliya) was the sweetest person I've met and did an incredible job. They also coordinate cleaning very well. Your room is fully cleaned by the time you return from breakfast and it is seamless, they must call up when you arrive for meals. Very clean and the L'Occitane toiletries were very nice.
Port Reviews
Nuremberg
Way out of the city. It was a good place to start, especially to get over your jet lag. The ports and places just kept getting better and better as the trip continued. I am glad we started in Nuremberg and ended in Budapest. I think I would have been disappointed if we traveled in the reverse direction.
