I chose to do a second riverboat cruise because I loved the first one of the Rhine River on Avalon and thought I would try the Danube. What I liked best was the attention to details. The cabin has a great bed.....great shower. Even the blow dryer is good enough so I don't have to bring my own. I like the robe and slippers since it means I don't have to pack those and there's never enough room in my suitcase with the weight restrictions these days. The same goes for the toiletries. Qualify brand. The cruise director was amazing....and the hotel manager got me into my room BEFORE the scheduled time as I had traveled all night and was exhausted. The onboard talent was superior. Everyone on board was friendly and efficient and the food was amazing. I love that there are so many choices at dinner as I am a bit fussy about food. The presentation was beautiful but more than that, the chef was extraordinary. Breakfast lunch and dinner were always a treat. Wine choices were good as well. I have nothing negative to say which seems crazy as I've traveled a lot so I have experiences to compare but the quality of service, attention to detail and the product presented are all excellent. Wish I could do more of these but they are expensive. I didn't criticize for that as you have to pay for that type of Five Star service and attention to small details.
Always cleaned properly. Love the glass wall and plenty of storage space. Bottled water....small detail but well appreciated.
Loved the guided tour, very informative and loved the marketplace. Purchased gifts and had them shipped. They all arrived earlier than anticipated and in good condition.
