This was my first river boat cruise. The Scenic people, the boat and the excursions were first rate. The all inclusive nature of the vacation was what made it special. The three days in Prague with guides allowed of to see many sites which we may have missed. The transfers to the boat were made in first class coaches.

The welcome onto the boat seemed very easy. The staff on the ship were friendly and very helpful. The food and wine were first rate and available any time of the day, and the minibar was restocked as required complimentary. A special mention to our cruise director J.J. an Australian, who was born in Budapest, he was extremely knowledgable, friendly and funny, he made his daily remarks enjoyable and interesting. Our captain ensured that although for part of the journey, we were in fairly shallow water, we got through safely.

I am not sure if we will take another European river boat cruise, as we have other places to see,but if we do, it will be with Scenic, a first class operation which I fully endorse.
