I very much enjoyed learning all about the Netherlands and Belgium. Fascinating history and a great mix of cities and small villages to explore. I especially liked the local bakery tour, beer, and chocolate tastings. Although Keukenhoff Gardens is crowded, it is definitely worth seeing. The shopping in Maastricht was great. Onboard entertainment by singing sailors and a small classical ensemble was very enjoyable. A talk given onboard about the history of the European Union was very interesting and highly informative.
Wonderful service at all times from very professional and courteous staff members. The food was excellent at all meals. I loved our daily talks given by Anthony with "local color" anecdotes. Our wine steward was very knowledgeable and made excellent selections with our meals. Silviu, our butler, was extremely helpful throughout the trip. We very much enjoyed the cruise and will certainly take another trip with Uniworld in the future.
Even though the River Ambassador is an older ship, it is very well maintained. Elegant decor and beautiful bathroom. Butler service by Silviu was wonderful! The room was very comfortable overall. The mini refrigerator was stocked at all times.
