Additional details
We traveled eastward on the Danube River from near Nuremberg to Budapest. Totally enjoyed ourselves! Cities we visited were so interesting, and the ship tours were terrific! We loved sailing into Budapest, which the tour director prepared us for by telling us all to be on top of the ship at 8 a.m. for an experience we'd never forget. And it was just that! We were taking photos on all sides of the ship as quickly as we could. What a city!
Also enjoyed the entertainment the ship brought on board. There was a beer tasting as well as musical entertainment that was first class. There was one singer who was absolutely fabulous.
We also enjoyed the night concert at the music hall in Vienna, and the view of the city lights in Budapest.
Cabin Review
Panorama Suite with French Balcony
Very nice. Spacious. Very clean. Only criticism is that you need more or better pillows.
Port Reviews
Nuremberg
We took the tour to the remains of the stadium where Hitler spoke and the museum. First saw outside of building where Nuremberg trials were held. Wish we could have gone inside there. Museum was very interesting. Would have liked more time -- had to skip parts of museum in order to make it through on time.
Regensburg
Great tour with a wonderful guide! Tickets for sausage and beer were a really nice addition -- met some people from the ship and had a really good time! Walking tour was very interesting. And there was enough time for us to wander ourselves a bit before going back to ship. Beautiful city.
