Wonderful Cruise on Destiny

This was our first river cruise having ocean cruised for many years. We weren’t disappointed, the cruise, the ship, food, tours and entertainment far exceeded our expectations. Nothing was too much trouble for Emerald and our cruise director Wes was absolutely fantastic. We were very lucky too as the weather was about 70 deg every day with clear blue gorgeous skies. Everything was thought out in great detail, even the walking tours thought about everyone involved with normal pace walking, faster pace walking and a guide for the not so active walker. Commentary came through little hands sets/earphones tuned into the guide you chose. The ship was beautiful, very decadent and spotless. Our cabin was beautiful with plenty of space, bathroom beautiful. We couldn’t fault the food, so much choice from the buffets to the served evening meal. There was plenty to do as there was always a guided tour, sail along the beautiful scenery or just relaxing inside the beautiful lounge. Service was wonderful, nothing too much trouble and everyone was so friendly, Like one happy family. We were please with all the ports from Nurenberg to Budapest. Bratislava was very quaint and the afternoon tour to have afternoon tea with a family was brilliant. The highlight I think was the optional tour to an evening concert in Vienna, it was simply wonderful. I can’t praise this cruise enough and we shall certainly return to Emerald in the future.
