Customer Reviews

  • Ludomir
    · October 2nd, 2025
    The stay on the ship, the food, and the shore excursions met my expectations. The crew was well prepared for their duties. However, I was surprised by the traffic on the Danube, which meant we had to dock with a second or even third ship and constantly have our windows covered.The address of the Vienna port was also incorrect – Handelskai 5 is not the same as Handelskai Anlegstelle 5, which cost us an extra €20.

    Overall I had a good time on the cruise, and would recommend it to others. It is priced reasonably and what I got in return was more than expected.

    Excellently organized river cruise, even if the ship no longer met the latest standards (e.g. terrible rattling loudspeaker announcements ...)
