We chose this cruise because we loved the first Uniworld cruise that we took two years ago. Unfortunately, this was not quite as good as that one was. The River Ambassador leaves much to be desired. The rooms were too small. The lobby wasn't nearly as nice as the last ship. We weren't as impressed with the person who was in charge of the activities. The other crew members were exremely friendly and helpful--just didn't think Tabea was as good as the person we had on our other cruise. The excursions weren't as interesting as those on the Castles Along the Rhine. However, the food was excellent, and the servers were outstanding. I would advise people to take a good look at the ship for the cruise that you are interested in taking. That makes a huge difference as to whether or not you will enjoy it. We really didn't enjoy the Jewish tour in Regensburg--very boring.
