The cruise was to an area that I hadn't been to and was eager to try this type of trip. The price included all the amenities that I required. The whole staff were wonderful and went out of their way to make things comfortable. The local guides were knowledgeable especially Tomas in Prague and Eva in Salzburg. The young lady I had in Nuremburg, I am afraid didn't seem to have the same depth of knowledge as the others. This was discovered when I had lunch with someone from the other coach and reviewed the information. Nicko the cruise director had many challenges along the way but was able to organize coaches to take our group to Nuremburg then on to Prague! As well, he was able to secure enough bikes for the road trip. The tour of the market by the chef Daniel as well as a tour of kitchen were fun and very interesting. I found that there seemed to be too much salt in the food for me. The entertainment was a good cross sample of the heritages that were encountered during the day. The variety of meals was enjoyed immensely with great service. I didn't travel with children. I saw that safety was important part of the workings of the ship and appreciate that.

Hopefully someday I will be able to take another cruise and enjoy as much as this latest one.!
