- GSGlen· September 27th, 2025Our cruise on MS Symphonie was excellent. The boat and our cabin in particular were comfortable and well equipped. The food was very good, tasty, beautifully prepared and presented, with well-sized portions, and a wide variety of French cuisine including many regional specialities. The included wines were varied, delicious and demonstrated an interesting range of French varieties. The range of the other drinks on offer was also very satisfactory. We did not feel it was necessary to try any of the paid drinks but it was nice to know they were available. Service was excellent in all categories: efficient and friendly. We only took two of the optional excursions (Strasbourg and Colmar) and both were well organised and very interesting. We would happily take another cruise with CroisiEurope.Show more

CroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewDear Mrs. REYNOLDS, thank you for your review and for sharing your photos. We are glad to read you enjoyed your cruise! We'll share your comments with the staff and hope we'll have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon! The CroisiEurope TeamTrip date: June 2025 - GMGregory· August 18th, 2024Excellent except for giuded tour in English in Köln. Guide's English was not good enough and she could not makea good narrative. Köln, generally could be skipped for something else, not very attractive. Vegetarian food was ok, but not excellent; lacking a bit of phantasy. It usually does not work so well to just replace the piece of meat with something like egg. One needs to create another dish. Also necessary information about that we eat vegetarian was not passed to the kitchen, so they had to improvise on the first day.Show moreTrip date: July 2024

- JKJanice· July 3rd, 2024The food was generally excellent; the exception being the German meal. The bratwurst and knackwurst were overcooked and dry. Cabins were clean, beds were comfortable. It was nice to be able to open the window and breath in fresh air along the Rhine. Visiting the small cities along the Rhine was nice. Jose at reception was very helpful in helping us navigate the transit from dock to city center.Show moreTrip date: June 2024
