    A must. The guides were very good. We had enough free time to explore. The service on board was top. Maryyline the comissaire is adorable. Be prepared to meet her opposite, Lucie.

    Great time, good food. The cabins are quite small but very adequate. The location was perfect just a short walk to all the must see sights.

    Tour Details
    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperatorWritten September 2024

      During the day, casual attire is perfectly suitable for excursions and activities. In the evenings, especially for the gala dinner, a more elegant or smart-casual dress code is recommended. You don't need to worry about formal wear, but dressing up a bit more than during the day will add to the overall experience, particularly for the gala evening.
