    Being from the USA I found the location of the tour not USA friendly or as welcoming which probably is justified. All excursions we not all bilingaul and the over experience wasn't the great...Great crew and staff but the entire experience for us was very chaotic and a bit unorganized. A bit disappointed in some of the kitchens choices as far as food and overall quality overall.

  • M

    Megan

    Asked on August 7th, 2024

    I would like to book a nice river cruise for 2 ladies who both want their own cabin. Approximately 10 days. Preferably boarding in Rotterdam and disembarking in Rotterdam. But like to go into Germany and not just sail in the Netherlands. Is there an option for that?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • A-ROSAOperatorWritten August 2024

      We have found an itinerary where Rotterdam is included and you'll visit both the Netherlands and Germany: Rhine Panorama 2024. The availability of single cabins on A-ROSA cruises is limited and tends to fill up quickly. For the September 27th, 2024 departure, single cabins are sold out, so you could get 1 cabin to share with your friend or get 2 cabins but pay double occupancy.

  • M

    Maxime

    Asked on July 1st, 2024

    Meals
    • A-ROSAOperatorWritten July 2024

      Various meal options are typically provided, including vegetarian and special dietary requests, which should be communicated in advance.

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • A-ROSAOperatorWritten June 2024

      The itinerary is primarily conducted on a cruise ship. It does not involve bussing between cities. It does have shore excursions involved that include transfers by a coach to/from the ship.
