Italy River Cruises Reviews

I was having a big birthday & wanted to treat myself to revisit Venice after 50 years or so. The cruise began with two days in a hotel in Milan then moved along to the cruise ship to cruise the Po river & Venice lagoon for the next week. I did sign up for an optional trip to Lago di Como from Milan but on that tour we spent most of our time on the bus due to so much traffic to & from. ...

Our travel companions picked Avalon and we said we'd try it though we have cruised with Viking twice.

We are not wealthy, but we splurged for a suite (#411 which was 1 of only 4). Overall, while the ...

We did a 2 night pre-cruise stay in Milan with included excursion to see the last supper, the excursion was excellent one of the best I have ever done and I have done quite a few, the guide was very entertaining.
