We just returned from the Danube river cruise from Nuremberg to Budapest. The cruise was very disappointing for several reasons. Besides the water level issue which I will explain later, our room on the first ship was dirty upon arrival and needed to be re-cleaned.

It was marketed as the best river cruise. I expected fine dining and wonderful cruising on the Danube River.

Having a number of physical limitation ( hip and knee problems as well as rheumatoid arthritis) we were very careful in choosing excursions and activities. After spending close to $9,000.00 plus another $2,500.00 in ...

My wife and I just got off our first Viking River Cruise in Nuremberg from Budapest. Just want to preface this with the cost paid months in advance was about $5000 per person, 10M a couple. We flew on our own to Budapest 3 days in advance to see the city ourselves. It was a great city with lots to see. The hop on hop off bus was less that $70 dollars for two days. (I mention this as we received ...
