NEVER AGAIN

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Renoir

I will start with one positive comment (it will be downhill after that). The cabin was roomy with good storage space and in pretty good condition. The food was school-dinner standard. I sent back many a full plate (which I don't normally do) - nasty textures, bland etc. Apart from the very last day when the chef pulled something out of the bag – a clever move I guess – hoping the last lunch and ...

was previously booked to go to Russia but Covid and the war in Ukraine changed our mind. We chose France as it was far enough away from Russia. Our main issues with this cruise were the food, air-conditioning on busses for tours not working, inability to provided suitable milk for lactose free diets (they ran out) Breakfast was a disappointment. The bacon was very fatty, the baked beans ...

Our Destination Seine Tauck tour departed Paris on 10/19/2022 and returned on the 29th. This company was so highly recommended by a personal friend that we decided to give Tauck a whirl. Tauck was to come into competition with the Crystal Danube cruise we took one year prior to the pandemic. WE found the service to be very uneven, the cruise was understaffed(not acceptable taking into ...

Never again. My husband and I are seasoned cruisers who have done about 40 different ocean cruises. This river cruise left us totally underwhelmed. The ship was clean and the crew was somewhat friendly, but there were so many things lacking. First, we had one of only nine suites on the ship. We paid considerably more than the smaller cabins however, upon boarding the ship we discovered, that we ...

We had previously sailed on a Viking river cruise, in 2016, and had a great experience. In early 2021 we decided to book the Paris to Zurich cruise At that time the pandemic seemed to be waning, but eighteen months later variants were causing cases to rise, even among those who were vaxed and boosted. Still, we were reassured by Viking’s safety claims so we got on the boat in Trier. Quite ...

Our first and last Princess cruise

When looking for a British Isle vacation, this Princess Cruise seemed to be our best fit.... I wish we could have a do-over. The ship was older and the layout for many areas was poor. But we could have over-looked many of the negatives if the food and activities on the ship were, at least, tolerable. That was not the case. The food in the buffet, (which is our go-to after a long day) was, ...

Chose cruise to visit places we had not been before. For most part enjoyed our trip but: Buffet - hot food was cold - cold food was warm - salad bar was good. Dining room meals good Shops - lots of booze, candy, jewelry, clothes, souvenirs, etc. - first night someone asked for halls candy for sore throat - not available - week later heard same question and same response. Entertainment ...

First of all let me start by saying I don’t usually bother giving any reviews as I believe nothing can be absolutely perfect in life and I like being tolerant and giving the benefit of the doubt. However I do feel that our experience on the A-Rosa Viva does warrant a review, especially as an ‘educational’ exercise to non- German speaking travellers like us. Will seek to make the review as ...

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Previous cruises with Viking We had to transfer ship to ship due to low water levels (not Vikings fault). The food was not very good and the food choices were limited. The guide on a particular excursion walked very fast and did not pay attention to the elderly people who had a very difficult time keeping up. Several of us approached him about slowing down and he continued at his pace TOO ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

The low level of the Rhine could not be helped, but what was truly disappointing was Viking’s handling of the issue after the cruise. Several weeks following the cruise, a Viking representative called us and offered us a voucher for 50% of the cost of the cruise to be used within one year on a Viking River Cruise. First of all, many cruisers still work full-time, and would not necessarily ...
