    The staff was very helpful and friendly. They let us store our luggage until boarding time. The rooms, meals, excursions, and entertainment were perfect. When we did not feel well, they brought soup to our room.

    Really appreciated the combination of cruising and hiking, plus excursions for non-hikers so they weren't neglected. Accommodated food needs creatively, although the gluten-free option - while better than previous experience with CroisiEurope - could still be improved. More gluten-free chocolate croissants! Nice selection of evening entertainment. Never a dull moment; but one was able just to sit and read or watch the scenery go by if wanted. Although we choose CroisiEurope partly for the French immersion experience, being paired with other English speakers at meals worked very well. Our American compatriots were grateful to have English-speaking companions, and for us it relieved the intensity that would have been entailed by full French immersion. Thanks for organizing perfect weather! ;-)

    overall great ship and crew. wonderful staff. Wonderful sites for excursions but rushed in solely 4 hrs daily. very regimented however in terms of meals etc. French passengers nasty, arrogant and ride to Americans and Canadians and for this would not take French liner again.

    This was not a tour I can recommend if you like flexibility. Being forced to sit at the same table each meal without having to choose one's fellow diners in the first place was not pleasant. Staff were rude and unhelpful, happy to stand and watch without ever offering assistance. Itinerary was good and saved the tour from scoring even less.

    We want a one-way guided tour from Porto to Salamanca - where we will be on our own then. Tell us if you have a product for us.

    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperatorWritten December 2023

      Regarding your question, I'm afraid we don't offer any cruises that start in Porto and end in Salamanca, usually Salamanca is just a stop, and because it is a shore excursion, there's no way for you to disembark and join the group bus to Salamanca.

    Jerry

    Asked on December 2nd, 2023

    Do you operate any tours/cruises in December and have any last minute openings?

      TravelerWritten December 2023

      I would be interested in the 16th departure. However it looks like I cannot be a solo traveler.

    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperatorWritten December 2023

      We have availability for solo travellers in a cabin category D (with fixed window cannot be opened) on the Douro deck. The total price is £3,911.00. This price doesn't include flights or arrival/departure transfers.
