Had never been on a river cruise before. New locations for us. Saw and learned about places of world had not explored before (Budapest to Bucharest). Good sightseeing tours provided. Fun to have a treat when coming back on board after a morning of touring, Great to get to starting city a day or 2 early to see more of the city. Appreciated not having children on the ship. Cabin well fitted with good storage. Even though we had a balcony not able to use it a lot because weather cool. But nice to be able to have floor to ceiling windows. Dining was great-good food with great service. Nice to have a single sitting with open seating. Got to know several groups of people we enjoyed dining with at dinner. Portions were good, not overwhelming. Never left a meal not feeling full. Loved having an open top deck but disappointing because of weather not able to use a lot. Overall a great experience--would do it again!
