Amadeus Passau Cruise Reviews

Cruise was with an alumni association and the itinerary looked good. The Amadeus Silver 3 is promoted as having the luxury of a 5 star hotel, but in my opinion fell far short, and it was not priced as an economy cruise. It was a combination of many small things that were frustrating. Despite there being a heat wave, a 1 liter water bottle in the cabin is filled twice a day. Any additional ...

Our first river cruise and certainly hope it won’t be our last. The ship was Al ost brand new and we had the added bonus of having the wonderful talent of Paul Carrack onboard who did 3 evening shows during our week long cruise. Paul Carrack is the lead singer who sang many hit songs ( How long - with ACE : Living Years - Mike & Mechanics ; Tempted - Squeeze ) and is described as the man with a ...

We chose this cruise to go with friends. I don't know where it started in the Rhine because we never made it. The second stop however was Cochem. Everything went wrong with this cruise from start to finish and the sensor staff were very unhelpful. The food was good and serving staff amazing but that was all. The ship was always late, missed excursions, we had the sun roof down for most of the ...

We had high hopes for this trip from Trier to Passau. It was our first river cruise and we would do another; not with Amadeus though. The itinerary was interesting, excursions well organised, boat comfortable. Crew were excellent, food generally high quality although ultimately all a bit the same after a few days, but.... The overall feeling was that passengers had to be flexible to suit ...

This was our first river cruise after many ocean ones and based on our experience it likely won't be our last. Cruising the Danube River was everything we hoped it would be. We visited wonderful cities on a lovely ship with excellent service. Upon our arrival we were welcomed on board and then escorted to our cabin by a friendly crew member. Our luggage had already made it into our cabin as we ...

We found a great deal with Adelman Travel which included a brief land tour of southern Germany and then a River Cruise on the Danube. We Started in Passau traveled to Budapest and then returned to Passau. There were no problems with navigation as the Amadeus Queen has a shallow draft. Number of stops on the Danube which included Melk and the Melk Abbey, Vienna, Budapest, Bratislava and Linz. ...

My wife and I decided to start our vacation with the Luftner option to visit Prague before our cruise. We arrived at the Luftner selected Prague Hotel and was immediately disappointed that there was no Luftner representative. Instead, the hotel staff told us to read the message taped to the desk in the hall way. The message told us that we would have dinner catered by the hotel later in the day. ...

The tour guides in our first port called Amadeus Silver/lueftner cruises/Amadeus the McDonald's of river cruises. With an open mind i could not disagree with them..The meals were just adequate a lot of french fries, motel stile buffet breakfast right down to the paper napkins, Lunch was a treat. Entertainment the same duo every night, the were good. Little or no activities on board, the crew ...

For August 2015, we booked a 14-day cruise through Gate 1 on Luftner’s Amadeus Silver from Amsterdam to Budapest. Because of low water, the first 5 days were a bus tour and we boarded the ship in Passau. This review is not about the substituted bus tour (which I will address in a separate posting). This review solely presents my comments and opinions about the 9-day cruise on the Danube from ...

We booked the Amsterdam to Budapest 14 night Cruise departing 9 August 2015 on Amadeus Silver. On the way to the airport for an LA stopover of 2 nights we were advised that the first 5 days of the Cruise would be 'on land' as the Rhine river levels were too low. Also that we could 'cancel' but if we accepted the changed itinerary there would be no further compensation. Of course, there was no ...
