  • UNDISCOVERED NETHERLANDS, Cologne - Amsterdam - Cologne, MS Vista Rio reviewer 1
    · October 28th, 2025
    The boat was well fitted-out and its smaller size gave it an intimate feel. Unfortunately the boat often docked away from city centres and sometimes away from easy access to public transport, so having a shuttle bus option would have been a good idea. The food was excellent and the staff were all very friendly. The walking tour groups were too big, except in Amsterdam where government regulations limits tour groups to 15 persons. The boat's bar was welcoming and laid-back with comfy sink-into sofas, however it was disappointing that the free-drinks package was limited to only "house" beer and wines.
