- George· May 31st, 2023Weather was cool & wet but everything else was enjoyable. The best part of the cruize was meeting great new friends. The staff were terrific friendly and very personable. The entertainment duo of Tatiana and Peter were also crucial to the atmosphere on the ship.Show moreCroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewDear Mr. Lung, thank you so much for your kind words on the crew, especially the entertainment staff.

- GMGloria Gayle· May 21st, 2023All aboard the ship was great. The tours were not as good as our last trip however. Mostly French Canadian passengers who resented having anything spoken in English. They should have had both an English and French guide on the busses ( which they did on one or two occasions). There should have been arrangements made for us to get from Amsterdam to Huizen. This was very difficult and costly. Also was not clear that the ship left at 6:00 … or read like we could not board until then … Overall good cruise with exception of complaining Fr. Canadian groups who tried to make us feel unwelcomeShow moreCroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewDear Mrs Metzger, thank you for taking the time to review your cruise.

Unfortunately, the cruise you are looking for only departs tomorrow, and this is the only available date for this year. We would be happy to check with the operator if this cruise will be running in 2024. Alternatively, if you can provide us with the month you are looking to book a cruise, we can provide you with some alternative options.

- CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written May 2023
There is no more restriction on CroisiEurope River Cruises. Please consult your embassy to ensure you meet all vaccination requirements for the destinations you are traveling to.

Asked on November 30th, 2022Can I fly to amsterdam and get on the river cruise there and fly back from Budapest at the end of the tour. what is the price of the tour.
- CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written November 2022
Flights: That would be the best solution to catch a flight to Amsterdam and depart from Budapest at the end of the Cruise. Departure dates are still available but some cabin categories are limited. Departure dates include: 13/04/2023 - 30/04/2023, 23/04/2023 - 10/05/2023, 02/05/2023 - 19/05/2023, 03/05/2023 - 20/05/2023.

Asked on November 21st, 2022Can you give me some examples of the prices for optional excursions on the river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest, please?
- CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written November 2022
In regards to your questions I would love to explain below via bullet points more details:
1. Excursions
I have attached a List of the Shore Excursion and the Prices for 2023
2. Departure Date/Cabin Categories
As this cruise is operated by different ships, please bear in mind that a cruise offers per ship per deck different cabin categories.
The difference is simply the location of the cabin on each deck.
Once you have selected a certain cabin and departure date we would be happy to provide you with a personal quote and more information about the ship.

Asked on July 11th, 2022Are there any earlier cruises Mar 2023
- CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written July 2022
Regarding cruising in March it's generally not offered a lot since the weather is not very reliable and especially for Amsterdam/the Netherlands it's April and May when you definitely want to go to experience the city at its best with tulip season in bloom.
