Barry· September 25th, 2021The ship was beautiful as was my stateroom. The food was excellent. The staff spoke English, some well, some broken. We were a group of six among eight Americans. The passengers were mostly European, however I felt very comfortableShow moreTrip date: September 2021- LMLarry· September 21st, 2021Excellent!. The boat was great and the crew was incredible. Smooth as silk. The tours were a bit disappointing since the guide spoke totally in German. The food on the boat was amazing. A slight disappointment was that the passengers weren't all Vaxxed. (just needed a 3-day test). This caused Slovakia to close Bratislava to us. They tried to punt with a tour from Mainburg to Bratislava. But, it was disappointing. Everything else was fabulous. The crew were fantastic. Larry M.Show moreTrip date: September 2021
- Jo· September 21st, 2021Tour Radar was very easy to work with. Anytime we had questions, they contacted ARosa for the answers. ARosa was very clean, kept with all Covid 19 guidelines. We never felt that we could be exposed to the virus. The only issue was the language. We took 2 tours that were completely in German. We did receive a 1/2 price discount, but had no idea what we were looking at or any history about the building or history. There were 8 Americans aboard. We did meet other passengers who spoke English as well as German. Most people that we interacted with in the countries spoke enough English that wasn’t an issue. We all came away with loving the Tour.Show moreTrip date: September 2021

Jessica
Asked on April 29th, 2025Looking at possibly booking the 8 day cruise in July 2026 can you let me know if any rooms with walk out deck are still available please?
A-ROSAOperator•Written April 2025Cabins C and A do come with balconies, but they are French balconies, which means they are not walk-out decks. The ship offers plenty of space on the upper decks, complete with seating areas, where you can comfortably enjoy the outdoors. If you're specifically looking for a river cruise boat with walk-out decks, we'd be happy to explore alternative options for you from our available cruises.
