Travelmarvel Cruise Reviews

We hopped on this cruise as a last minute addition to a 3 month holiday in Europe. Our cruise was at the end of a busy season with low water in the rivers. We were lucky to be able to do the entire trip cruising. We could not have asked for a better experience. The crew were amazing, the boat was beautifully fitted out and kept immaculate, so much food at a fabulous standard and the on board ...

An opportunity arose to go back to travel from Budapest to Amsterdam. We did it in the reverse with Avalon (2018) which we enjoyed. We thought we might see it differently. We did not expect to miss cities and towns altogether, due to low water levels we missed 2 nights in Budapest and 1 night in Regensburg. The general concensus was they should have put us up in a hotel (9 couples) for the 2 ...

We chose this holiday to celebrate a birthday. Although a little on the expensive side, it did include excursions, all meals, drinks at meal time, and transfers. The service was great and the food was particularly good. Although the portion sizes were quite small, because there were a few courses, you weren't left hungry. If you were still hungry, you could always ask for more and they would ...

Intro This journey had been planned for 3 years but, due to COVID, was delayed from 2021 to 2023. I was travelling with my wife as well as another couple. Given the distance from our home in Australia, we added an extra week onto our travel before the commencement of the cruise in Amsterdam and spent 5 days in England as well as 2 days in Paris. Whilst listed as a review of Travelmarvel’s ...

Whoever wrote the official review on here has clearly never been on the ship and is merely repeating the official blurb. The sun deck is not open 24h and in our 2 week cruise, which in all other respects ie food,service and staff was excellent, the sky bar was open just once. There’s not sundeck games of any type and the lighter eating venue is only at lunchtime and serves most of the ...

Booked as a result of late booking offer and something on our bucket list to do. No regrets whatsoever, apart from should have booked for 14 nights. Have put that right by booking 14 night cruise on the sister ship from Amsterdam to Budapest in September 22. The Vega is brand new and was only on her 6th trip. Had a top grade cabin and it couldn't have been better. Window drops to waist ...

Please be aware that contrary to the written advice given before the cruise there are no covid prevention measures in place at Travelmarvel. This may be very important if you are vulnerable and have a compromised immune system. After following all the covid rules and guidance for two years, we have remained covid free until a two week cruise on the Vega. Since our return on the Friday, 6th May, ...

Cruised the Rhine, Maine, Danube with excellent Cruise Director Gunther Caliebauf and the service by crew was second to none!! Would recommend to all ! We had good trips organised by APT were very good and included in the fare. Maybe too many churches but you always had the option to do your own thing. There was also some added visits that were an extra cost if you so desired, some were very ...

We cruised from Amsterdam to Budapest, September 2019, in an Owners Suite. Overall this was a very good trip, but there were a couple of not so good features which could potentially stop us using the Jewel again. First, the positives. The Cruise director Emese was truly excellent, very approachable and hands-on throughout. We can't praise her enough, and the organisation of just about ...

We chose our 2 week river cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam with Travelmarvel mainly from an economic point of view. My husband and I were travelling with my sister, and the single supplement for her on APT and Scenic was outrageous, and the single cabins were on the bottom deck at waterline. With Travelmarvel, my sister paid NO single supplement (she was not therefore eligible for free airfare, ...
