Fantastic cruise on the Danube to celebrate my birthday. Excellent ship - crew very friendly and helpful. Nothing too much trouble. Ship spotlessly clean, good sized French balcony cabin with very comfy bed. Plenty of good food and wine - dining available in the main restaurant or buffet style on the Aquavit Terrace. Only negative was the Taste of Austria dinner which was a bit chaotic with starters, mains and desserts all buffet style at the central area. Too many guests trying to get different courses at the same time. Entertainment was ok Ports of call along the river were wonderful especially as we had terrific weather all week. Highlight was arriving in Budapest at night with the Parliament Building, Chain Bridge etc all lit up - breathtaking! Excellent programme of included and optional excursions. Disembarkation went smoothly for our onward stay at Le Meridien in Budapest.
Would have no hesitation in recommending The Prestige and the Danube Waltz cruise.
Cabin kept spotlessly clean by Alexandra.
Only a 3 hour stay in Bratislava so concentrated on the main square enjoying milk shakes in the sunshine at the Zepplin Café.
