Sail Date: Jul 2016
Cabin: Veranda Superior

We chose the Rhine Getaway largely because of the moderate summer temperatures in northern Europe in July/August. This was our first river cruise.

We had no ideas what to expect. My biggest concern was that there would be little independent time and little activity. My concerns were quickly dispelled.

We did the Amsterdam pre-extension, which I highly recommend because Amsterdam is an WONDERFUL city, and we were able to adjust to the time change. The hotel, the Radisson Blu, was well-located and quite nice. The included walking tour was fine. Our independent travel was better, walking, enjoying the incredible architecture, navigating public transportation, visiting wonderful museums, and dining in very good restaurants along the canals. The included canal boat tour on day 2 of our cruise was ok...something a tourist must do.

Veranda Superior

Our veranda room on the third level was comfortable and well-appointed. We did not use the veranda a lot and might go for a French balcony the next time. The bathroom is small but so well organized that there were spaces for all of our toiletries without clutter. Heated floor was very nice touch. Big suitcases fit under the bed.

Upper level of the ship has a walking circuit.
