I have cruised dozens of times, but this was my first river cruise and I decided to sail down the Rhine River Cruise with some friends. It was the first time for all three of us and we were literally blown away with the whole experience. The Amadeus Cara is a brand new 5-star ship and she is a beauty! From the moment you enter on board with a big welcome from the staff, you know you are in for ...
Our first river cruise and certainly hope it won’t be our last. The ship was Al ost brand new and we had the added bonus of having the wonderful talent of Paul Carrack onboard who did 3 evening shows during our week long cruise. Paul Carrack is the lead singer who sang many hit songs ( How long - with ACE : Living Years - Mike & Mechanics ; Tempted - Squeeze ) and is described as the man with a ...
This was our first river cruise after many ocean ones and based on our experience it likely won't be our last. Cruising the Danube River was everything we hoped it would be. We visited wonderful cities on a lovely ship with excellent service. Upon our arrival we were welcomed on board and then escorted to our cabin by a friendly crew member. Our luggage had already made it into our cabin as we ...
Our group was on the inaugural cruise of the Amadeus MS Queen, loved it and was ready to go again so we did! We've sailed now with multiple cruise lines and have found Luftner's Amadeus line to be a step above. The Amadeus Queen is a state of the art ship with all the amenities you'd expect and more. The crew is amazing and will do what it takes to ensure that you are taken care of in a 5 star ...
Just returned from the Danube river cruise on the Amadeus Queen and couldn’t fault a single thing. Genuinely cannot understand anyone who could criticise any part of the cruise ship. The only drawback may have been the drinks package as it was a bit restrictive with choice and availability only at mealtimes, but that in itself may have been a good thing so as not to get people too rowdy! The ...
Mine was a large group tour.
With the drought on the Danube, many of the other River Boat companies could not sail due to the draft required for their boats. The Amadeus Queen is a new boat and constructed with a shallower draft, so we were able to sail, but had to empty the pool when the shallow-ness was iffy. The cabins on the Strauss deck are spacious and the food, service, ...
I recently returned from a week long voyage on the Rhine and the Moselle, from Amsterdam to Basel on board the Amadeus Silver III. A new ship. Build: 2016. 168 passenger (84 cabins) and 46 crew members.
It was a fantastic experience in every way. We had a wonderfully sunny days and breathtaking scenery.
The ship boasts a modern elegant décor. The multilingual crew members are friendly and ...
I was looking for a short cruise but wanted to visit a variety of countries. This cruise stopped at 6 ports. Regensburg, Bratislava, Vienna, Budapest to name a few. Excursions were informative and interesting. Local guides who were excellent. Trips partly by coach and followed by short walking experiences. Consideration given to mobility impaired customers. Early starts for the morning tours and ...
Wanted to see specific towns on river rhine and we were not dissapointed
The staff and the food was absolutely marvellous . I dont usually write reviews but this is a way of apology to all of amadeus Briliant crew for the non stop complaints of some of the passengers ranging from petty comments about the food to blagging some extra drinks just to keep them quiet .One person on the first day ...
The cruise was sponsored by my university. There were many colleges represented - Ohio State was number 1. University of Texas was second. Canadian ones also. 130 persons.
This was my only experience river cruising. There are many locks. We has some snow but we were very comfortable on board in Suite 304 on the Mozart deck. Our suite had good closet space, a decent bathroom (shower only); ...
