    Croisieurope tours are well organised and I love the fact that I don't have to choose what to eat, the menus are ready for you although if you have specific food requests they will accommodate you. Breakfast is a buffet. The cabin was great, very clean and comfortable, we chose the top deck which was great. They are spacious enough and clean with a daily cleaning service. We particularly like the the cost includes food and drinks, including tea, coffee water. My only criticism on this tour is Cussac is just a fort at the side of the river, there was no way to get to the village. The staff were marvellous and couldn't be any more helpful
