Sail Date: May 2017
Cabin: French Balcony

From the airport transfers and assistance with checking in at flight to return to US, to the shore excursions, the knowledgeable and attentive but unobtrusive onboard staff, and the mix of guided overviews of each port city with free time for subsequent exploration later, this was a wonderful experience.

We chose this particular cruise for several reasons, one the itinerary including the post cruise option for magnificent Prague and the Passau pipe organ concert, the sailing primarily at night leaving daylight hours for exciting locations, and the almost all inclusive arrangements. Durnstein does not appear to be on any other lines' schedule, and while not needing but a little time, it is truly a highlight.

We live in a beautiful place with amazing natural scenery so are not interested in using a cruise for such an experience.
