- Jonathan· April 16th, 2025An excellent moving hotel. The staff was fantastic. The crowd is older but that’s the nature of a river cruise. The beds are very firm. The toilet paper is very rough so bring your own if that’s important to you. The food was delicious. Time in Budapest is limited so if you are not doing the prepared excursions we took a Segway tour which was fantastic and let us see most of the inner city in a short amount of time.Show more

- KKKaren Lee· November 13th, 2024Our stateroom, the food, the ship, the Ukranian crew were all great! We were the only English speaking passengers and knew that the excursions would only be in German and that we would need to make our own way, which we did. However, before the cruise, Tour Radar administrators promised that announcements and events on the ship would be in English as well as German. They were not. We had to ask staff what an announcement said. We were left out of video presentations on the ship. Very disappointing.Show moreCrucemundo commented on this reviewDear Karen, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the stateroom, food, ship, and crew.

- ANAnne· November 4th, 2024We had a lovely vacation on Crucestar. Our CD, Julia, was lovely and very helpful as were the crew. We only went to the lounge on a couple of evenings and the entertainment was really good. We were allocated a dining table with other English speakers which was great as the majority of passengers were German and my language skills are poor. I have a very simple palate and the restaurant could not have accommodated me better, I even put on weight with the 4 course breakfast, lunch & dinners! Our cabin was sufficient with everything needed for a week long vacation. Only comments I would make is that they need bigger towels and I found the bed a little hard. The itinerary was really good. The only difficult mooring was Vienna but the included bus & walking tour took care of any potential concerns. The included tours were really good and we could have availed of a concert in Vienna. Overall, a great week which offered all that we needed and an opportunity to visit some beautiful places at great value for money. Oh, I am in my early 50s and I wasn't the youngest but it wouldn't have mattered as the whole experience was lovely. Well done Crucemondo and keep up the good work. We would be happy to book another if the itinerary was right.Show moreCrucemundo commented on this reviewDear Anne, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback!

- Juliana· April 13th, 2024Highlights: The locations chosen for the stops were great and so were the activities; the staff were amazing and kind (the restaurant staff was beyond amazing! Special kudos to Ninna and Igor). The cruise was clean, pretty and the overall experience was great! Lowlights: The boat broke down on the last day and left us to figure out ourselves how to return to Passau, the person responsible for our group left us behind, as there was no tour coordinator and this was above his pay grade. At the end, the leader from the front desk (Marya) kindly called/ arranged us cabs and reimbursed us (quite fast) the cost of the trip. Conclusion: It was a lot of fun, the recommendation is that if several travel agencies are going to be working together, there should be someone responsible for each group, so no one is left behind and keep up the good work on the cruise! :)Show moreCrucemundo commented on this reviewDear Juliana, Thank you for your comment.
